The proposed exemptions from ERP requirements are limited to certain specified safety-related roadway projects; provided such projects do not reduce the capacity of the existing surface water management system, are not located within wetlands or other surface waters and include best management practices for erosion and sedimentation control. The activities to be exempt are: sidewalks six feet or less in width constructed along roadways and which do not obstruct or impound surface waters; turnlanes less than 0.25 mile in length and other intersection improvements; road widening and shoulder paving projects which do not create additional traffic lanes; and recreational paths for nonmotorized vehicles located along roadways and limited to eight feet in width for unidirectional paths or 12 feet in width for bidirectional paths. Amendment of Environmental Resource Permitting Information Manual Part B, Basis of Review (BOR) Section 5.8 is also proposed to delete language that will be rendered unnecessary upon adoption of the proposed exemptions. Rule 40D-4.091, F.A.C., is amended to reference the adoption date of the proposed changes in the BOR and to correct the title of the document.
