The purpose of this rulemaking is to revise and update District rules for the processing of permit applications. Timeframes for providing additional information to make applications complete will be revised to allow applicants 90 days instead of 30 days to respond to staff requests for additional or clarifying information. A new Applicant Transmittal Form is proposed for use in submitting additional information in support of a permit application. A process allowing for staff issuance of notices of proposed agency action for denial is proposed to be used for incomplete permit applications. Minor amendments are made to improve clarity and eliminate unnecessary language. An outdated rule is repealed. Two rules are transferred and renumbered. The overall effects will be to make District permit application processing procedures more consistent with other water management districts, better organize permit processing rules within Part VI of Chapter 40D-1, F.A.C., and improve permit processing procedures.
