The Department proposes to amend most of the rules in Chapter 62-330, F.A.C., and Applicant’s Handbook Volume I, some sections in the Applicant’s Handbook Volume II within the Northwest Florida Water Management District, and incorporate by reference any updates to Applicant’s Handbook Volume II made by the other water management districts (Districts). The amendments will primarily make minor corrections and provide clarifications that have been identified as being needed since the October 1, 2013, effective date of the statewide environmental resource permit (SWERP) rules. Additional streamlining also is proposed in the form of such things as adding some new exemptions, reducing some submittal requirements, improving the linkage with federal permitting programs, and revising application and notice forms with the goal of reducing the number of requests for additional information from applicants.
