Rule No.: RULE TITLE
40D-40.301: Conditions for Issuance of General Permits for Minor Surface Water Management Systems
PURPOSE AND EFFECT: The purpose of this rulemaking is to add the term, "semi-impervious" to the conditions for issuance of general environmental resource permits that are based upon the amount of impervious material proposed for a project. The effect will be to clarify that any such provisions concerning impervious surfaces are intended to include semi-impervious material. Historically, impervious and semi-impervious materials have been treated the same in District rules. However, recent rulemaking that included adoption of a separate definition of "semi-impervious" made the continued inclusion of semi-impervious materials in these rule provisions unclear.
SUBJECT AREA TO BE ADDRESSED: Environmental resource permitting.
SPECIFIC AUTHORITY: 373.044, 373.113, 373.118 FS.
LAW IMPLEMENTED: 373.118, 373.413, 373.414, 373.416 373.427 FS.
