Chapter:

Best Management Practices for Florida Citrus Operations

Overview

RULE:

5M-16.001	Approved Best Management Practices
5M-16.002	Presumption of Compliance
5M-16.003	Notice of Intent to Implement BMPs
5M-16.004	Recordkeeping
5M-16.005	Previously submitted NOIs

PURPOSE:

The purpose of the proposed rules is to adopt by reference a revised version of the manual titled Water Quality/Quantity Best Management Practices for Florida Citrus (2012) (FDACS-P-01756). The new edition (2024) 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 citrus production, including enrollment in the program and implementation verification site visit requirements. Proposed rule revisions remove language that is duplicative with Rule Chapter 5M-1 and clarify the intent of BMP Program enrollment and checklist requirements.
