Chapter 73C-43, Fla. Admin. Code ("F.A.C."), sets forth procedures governing local government applications for participation in the Local Government Comprehensive Planning Certification Program and the review and evaluation of those applications by the Department. The Department seeks to merge the brief statement of purpose set forth in Rule 73C-43.001, F.A.C. with the definitions set forth in 73C-43.002, F.A.C. to create one rule. The Department also seeks to move the language from Rules 73C-43.004, .005, and .006, F.A.C., into Rule 73C-43.003, F.A.C., so that all information related to applications and the application process are together in one rule.

- Proposed Rules (5)
-
During the rulemaking effort to reserve water for the Caloosahatchee River (C-43) West Basin Storage Reservoir Project (C-43 Reservoir), the District included language stating: “all presently existing legal uses of water shall be protected so long as such use is not contrary to the public interest.” The inclusion of this language was challenged in DOAH Case No. 14-1329RP. The administrative law judge (A.L.J.) determined the language was invalid, stating that “[e]xisting legal uses are presumed not contrary to the public interest unless and until the District determines otherwise.” The A.L.J. went on to state that while the District “can make a ‘not contrary’ determination,” it cannot do so prospectively for the duration of a permit.
Language similar to that found invalid in C-43 Reservoir reservation case exists in the water reservations for Picayune Strand, Fakahatchee Estuary, North Fork of the St. Lucie River, and Nearshore Central Biscayne Bay, in subsections 40E-10.041(1) and (2), 40E-10.051, and 40E-10.061(2), F.A.C., respectively.

Based on the information provided by the Petitioner, the Division concludes that Petitioner's Petition for Waiver failed to demonstrate that Petitioner was entitled to the requested waiver because Petitioner failed to demonstrate that the purpose of the underlying statute will be or has been achieved by other means or that application of the rule creates a substantial hardship or violates the principles of fairness.
