In the event the project also requires a consumptive use permit pursuant to Chapter 40E-2, F.A.C., demonstration of reasonable assurances required under Rule 6740E-5.301, 68F.A.C., shall be made in conjunction with application for such permit and a consolidated permit will be issued.

Application for a permit under the provisions of this rule for existing artificial recharge systems that are not currently approved under an existing consumptive use permit shall be made within a period of two years from the effective date of implementation of this rule.
157(3) Nothing herein relieves the applicant from complying with the requirements of the UIC program including the acquisition of and compliance with permits issued pursuant to Chapter 62-528, F.A.C186.
