PURPOSE:

The Department is holding two workshops for the purpose of exploring options with the public on Florida nutrient standards and other relevant provisions of water quality standards. These workshops will be used to discuss concepts and gain public input on ideas for a State rule. The information gained at the workshops will be used as part of the traditional State process of collaborative rulemaking. Note that the Department previously opened up Chapter 62-302, F.A.C., for the establishment of nutrient standards, but then suspended that rulemaking. This was originally noticed in the January 30, 2009 issue of the Florida Administrative Weekly, Vol. 35, No. 4, pp. 411-412.

Nutrient and other surface water quality standards.
