Rule 62B-55.001 describes the purpose and intent of Chapter 62B-55 to designate coastal areas utilized by sea turtles for nesting and to establish guidelines for local government regulations that control beachfront lighting to protect hatching sea turtles. This rule is being repealed as it is purely informational and unnecessary. Rule 62B-55.009 specifies that the information that must be complied on an annual basis and submitted to the department such as the number of lighting applications reviewed, potential violations reported and investigated and the disposition of all potential violations. This rule is being repealed because this information is no longer necessary to the Department as the FWC has assumed responsibilities associated with lighting issues in beach front communities.
