PURPOSE:

The purpose of the proposed rules is to adopt a revised version of the Water Quality/Quantity Best Management Practices for Florida Vegetable and Agronomic Crops (2015 Edition, FDACS-P 01268) manual by reference. The new edition updates language to reflect statutory changes impacting the Best Management Practices program, provides more specific direction and expectation regarding the best management practices, and removes language not related to water quality or water conservation.

SUBJECT:

The subject areas of the proposed rules are water quality and water conservation best management practices for Florida vegetable and agronomic crop production, enrollment in the program, and implementation verification site visit requirements. Proposed rule revisions remove language that is duplicative with Chapter 5M-1, F.A.C., and clarifies the intent of BMP Program enrollment and checklist requirements.
