Department:

WATER MANAGEMENT DISTRICTS

Division:

Southwest Florida Water Management District

Chapter:

INDIVIDUAL ENVIRONMENTAL RESOURCE PERMITS

Overview

RULE:

40D-4.091

Publications, Forms and Agreements Incorporated by Reference (Transferred)

PURPOSE:

The purpose of the proposed rulemaking is to adopt by reference an operating agreement between the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (ACOE) and the District. The operating agreement outlines the procedures to be followed by the ACOE and the District to implement the ACOE’s Programmatic General Permit – PGP-SAJ-95. PGP-SAJ-95 addresses multi-phase projects that are being developed pursuant to a conceptual environmental resource permit. Currently such projects require construction permits from both the ACOE and the District prior to each phase of construction. The effect of implementing PGP-SAJ-95 will streamline permitting of such projects by eliminating the need for a separate approval from the ACOE once it has approved the conceptual design.

SUMMARY:

The rule revision incorporates our operating agreement between the ACOE and the District to implement the ACOE’s Programmatic General Permit PGP-SAJ-95. The operating agreement describes the processes for the application by the ACOE of its general permit to projects being implemented through a conceptual environmental resource permit issued by the District. The operating agreement also specifies modification, notification, and compliance responsibilities of both the ACOE and the District regarding projects that quality for PGP-SAJ-95.
