RULE NO.: RULE TITLE:
1A-31.0092: Permit Area

The Department of State, Division of Historical Resources hereby gives notice:
That on March 30, 2012, the Division issued an order. The Final Order was in response to a Petition for Variance from Amelia Research and Recovery, LLC filed February 9, 2012, and advertised in Vol. 38, No. 8, of the Florida Administrative Weekly. No comments were received in response to the petition. The Final Order on the Petition for Variance grants the Petitioner a variance from Rule 1A-31.0029, Florida Administrative Code, that limits the area for which an exploration permit may be issued because the Petitioner has demonstrated that the purpose of the statute underlying the rule will be met and that the Petitioner would suffer a substantial hardship if required to comply with this rule.
A copy of the Order or additional information may be obtained by contacting:
Adrienne E. Vining, Senior Attorney, Southwest Florida Water Management District, 7601 US Highway 301 North, Tampa, FL 33637-6759, (813)985-7481.
