PURPOSE AND EFFECT:  The Northwest Florida Water Management District (NWFWMD) announces workshops regarding ongoing rule development to which all persons are invited.  NWFWMD is developing changes to Chapter 40A-2, F.A.C., as noticed in Florida Administrative Weekly on July 20, 2012, as part of a statewide effort headed by the Florida Department of Environmental Protection (DEP) and joined by all five water management districts (WMDs), to increase consistency in the consumptive use permitting (CUP), minimum flows and levels (MFLs), and water supply related programs of the WMDs. 
SUBJECT AREA TO BE ADDRESSED:  Among other things, this rule development will cover the amendment, repeal, or development of rules as needed to accomplish CUP consistency goals, on the following subjects:  (1) consumptive use permit criteria; (2) limiting conditions (permit conditions by rule); (3) permit thresholds; (4) permit types; (5)  permit duration; (6) water conservation requirements; (7) annual allocation requirements and other rules needed to provide continuous reasonable assurance throughout the duration of a permit; (8) modification of permits; (9) 10-year compliance reports; (10) compliance monitoring and forms; (11) application forms; (12) permit fees to address related changes to permit thresholds or permit types; (13) an Applicant’s Handbook to assist applicants with the requirements of Chapter 40A-2, F.A.C. (14) procedural rules in Chapter 40A-1, F.A.C.; (15) water shortage plan rules in Chapter 40A-21, F.A.C.; and (16) other rules for which conforming amendments may be needed along with any rule changes made in the subject areas identified above.
