UNDERGROUND INJECTION CONTROL

Overview

RULE:

62-528.100	Underground Injection Control: Purpose (Repealed)
62-528.305	Underground Injection Control: Permit Processing (Repealed)

PURPOSE:

The purpose and effect of the proposed rule amendment is to repeal a rule identified during the comprehensive rule review required by Executive Order 11-211 as duplicative, unnecessarily burdensome, or no longer necessary.

SUMMARY:

Rule 62-528.100, F.A.C., provides the purpose of Chapter 62-528, F.A.C., to adopt rules that govern the construction and operation of injection wells to protect the quality of the State’s underground sources of drinking water and to prevent degradation of the quality of other aquifers adjacent to the injection zone that may be used for other purposes. Rule 62-528.305, F.A.C., specifies that the timeframes in Rule 62-4.055 apply to Underground Injection Control Permitting. Rule 62-528.100, F.A.C., is being repealed because it is unnecessary to administer the program, are not essential to meet the statutory mandate, and duplicative. Rule 62-528.305, F.A.C., is being repealed because it is duplicative of statute as the permitting process timeframes are provided by statute. Rule 62-528.100, F.A.C., is cross referenced in Rules 62-528.200, 62-528.300, 62-528.400, 62-528.405, 62-528.410, 62-528.435, 62-528.440, 62-528.450, 62-528.455, 62-528.530, 62-528.540, 62-528.603, 62-528.605, 62-528.615, and 62-528.630, F.A.C. The effect of this repeal will not impact those rule sections as 62-528.100 is informational. The cross-referencing rule sections will have to be amended to remove the references to 62-528.100, F.A.C.
