MISCELLANEOUS PERMITS

Overview

RULE:

68A-9.007

Special-use Permits; Short-term Use Permits; Fees; Special-Opportunity Hunting and Fishing

PURPOSE:

The purpose of the proposed rule amendment is a clarification to the daily-use permit exemption for through-hikers utilizing the Florida Trail on Three Lakes and J.W. Corbett WMAs; and an increase in the price of a daily use permit from $3 per vehicle to $4 per person on Tosohatchee WMA to match fees charged by the previous landowner (Department of Environmental Protection). The effect of the proposed rule changes will limit the daily-use permit exemption to through-hikers only; casual trail users will continue to be required to obtain a daily-use permit; and daily use fees at Tosohatchee WMA will be consistent with what has been charged in the past.

SUMMARY:

The proposed rule changes will clarify the daily-use permit exemption for persons hiking the Florida Trail and limit that exemption to through-hikers; casual users (day hikers) will be required to obtain the required daily-use permit at Three Lakes and J.W. Corbett WMAs and the price for a daily use permit will increase from $3 per vehicle to $4 per person at Tosohatchee WMA.
