DiVosta Homes, L.P. Pursuant to Section 120.542, Florida Statutes, DiVosta Homes, LP is seeking a variance from subparagraph 40C-41.063(1)(c)1., F.A.C., and Section 11.1.3 of the Applicant’s Handbook: Management and Storage of Surface Waters (February 1, 2005)(A.H.), with respect to Environmental Resource Permit (ERP) Application 4-009-96251-7. The permit applicant is proposing to construct a development project, to be known as Waterstone PUD, Phase II, in Brevard County. Subparagraph 40C-41.063(1)(c)1., F.A.C., and Section 11.1.3., A.H., prohibit the construction, operation, and maintenance of a surface water management system in the Upper St. Johns River Hydrologic Basin that results in an increase in the amount of water being diverted from the Basin to coastal receiving waters. These rules are intended to protect the water resources of the State by limiting discharges of fresh water to estuarine waters and curtailing interbasin diversion. Comments on this petition should be filed with Sandy Bertram, District Clerk, St. Johns River Water Management District, 4049 Reid Street, Palatka, Florida 32177, within 14 days of publication of this notice. The petition has been assigned F.O.R. Number 2006-80.

Granting Variance under Section 120.542, F.S. (SJRWMD FOR# 2006-66), to Garvey Development, LLC (Petitioner). The Petition for Variance was received by SJRWMD on June 1, 2006. Notice of receipt of the petition requesting the variance was published in the F.A.W., Vol. 32, No. 24 on June 16, 2006. No public comment was received. This order provides a temporary variance from subparagraph 40C-41.063(1)(c)1. of the Florida Administrative Code and Section 11.1.3 of the Applicant's Handbook: Management and Storage of Surface Waters (February 1, 2005). These rules provide in pertinent part that a surface water management system may not result in an increase in the amount of water being diverted from the Upper St. Johns River Hydrologic Basin to intercoastal receiving waters. Generally, the Order sets forth the basis of the Governing Board's decision to grant the variance as follows: 1) requiring Petitioner to comply with these rules onsite would create a technological hardship and 2) Petitioner's financial contribution to the C-1 Rediversion Project or an Alternative Rediversion Project will accomplish the purpose of Chapter 373, Florida Statutes to prevent harm to the water resources by facilitating the project’s implementation. The C-1 Rediversion Project is a restoration project designed to allow water that would be diverted from the St. Johns River to coastal receiving waters by the Melbourne Tillman Water Control District canal system to drain once again to the St. Johns River.

Laguna Estates, LLC, associated with a dock for a 7.75 acre multi-family residential project, known as Laguna Estates. The project is located in Section 1, Township 26 South, Range 36 East, Brevard County, Florida. The street address is 59 South Highway 1, Rockledge, which is approximately 0.75 miles south of Viera Boulevard. Pursuant to Section 373.414(17), Fla. Stat., Laguna Estates, LLC, seeks a variance from paragraph 40C-4.302(1)(c), Florida Administrative Code, and the associated portion of the Applicant’s Handbook: Management and Storage of Surface Waters, 12.2.5(c), with respect to Environmental Resource permit 4-009-89906-2. The application initially sought approval of 12 boat slips associated with a dock for Laguna Estates. The application for variance seeks approval to construct a dock structure, including an access pier, two boat slips, and a covered platform in Class II waters in the Indian River conditionally restricted for shellfish harvesting. (Information on the shellfish harvesting status of the Class II waters is obtainable from the Department of Agriculture & Consumer Services.) The variance proposes to meet the requirements for a private, single-family boat dock that is allowed by rule in conditionally restricted Class II waters. The rule, which precludes any docks but qualifying private, single-family boat docks, exists to protect shell fish harvesting areas from perturbation due to multi-slip boat docks associated with multi-family residences and from excessive impacts from private, single-family boat docks.
Comments on the petition should be filed with Robert Nawrocki, District Clerk, St. Johns River Water Management District, 4049 Reid St., Palatka, Fl., 32177-2529, within 14 days of publication of this notice. The petition has been assigned F.O.R Number 2006-76.

Code, and the Basis of Review for Use or Occupancy of the Works or Lands of the District Permit Applications within the South Florida Water Management District, incorporated by reference in subsection 40E-6.091(1), Fla. Admin. Code, which governs the maximum allowable encroachment of vessels moored within District canals and the placement of swales within Works or Lands of the District. Generally, the Order sets forth the basis of the Governing Board decision to grant the waiver, as follows: 1) the facilities will not significantly interfere with the SFWMD’s ability to perform necessary construction, alteration, operation and maintenance activities; and 2) the Order granting a waiver from the subject rule would prevent David and Mindy Cox from suffering a substantial hardship.

Variance or Waiver filed on August 10, 2006, on behalf of Patricia A. Hornback, D.M.D. Pursuant to Chapter 28-104, F.A.C., and Section 120.542, F.S., petitioner seeks a waiver of subpargraph 64B5-14.003(1)(a)1., F.A.C. Specifically, the Petitioner requests that the 1 year of advanced training required by subpargraph 64B5-14.003(1)(a)1., F.A.C. be waived for the purpose of Petitioner obtaining a general anesthesia permit under this Rule and that Petitioner’s six month training completed in 1979, being the norm according to rules then, be accepted now for the purpose of obtaining a general anesthesia permit. This petition is made in light of Petitioner having been authorized to perform general anesthesia prior to the effective date of the Rule at issue and that combined with the fact that Petitioner under prior authorization has personally performed as well as supervised general anesthesia and deep sedation countless times, she is (1) effectively “grandfathered in,” (2) the purpose of the underlying statute has been achieved by this means and (3) the application of the Rule at issue would create a substantial hardship on the Petitioner in view of the fact that it would, in effect, terminate Petitioner’s practice, dependent as it is on the administration of general anesthesia and deep sedation on a regular basis.
