Overview

RULE:

40D-1.659

Forms and Instructions

PURPOSE:

The purpose of this rule amendment is to incorporate by reference an Electronic Transaction Agreement form approved by the District Governing Board. The effect will be to establish the standard procedures to be used by persons who wish to communicate electronically with the District.

SUMMARY:

As the District expands its electronic permitting capability, it becomes necessary to establish standard procedures for persons who wish to submit permit applications electronically and to communicate electronically concerning their applications and permits once issued. The Electronic Transaction Agreement adopted by the District sets forth the basic procedures for conducting electronic communications with the District. These procedures address what constitutes an electronic signature, how payments are made electronically, when a transmittal is considered “received” by the District, responsibilities for transmission errors and e-mail addresses, and when notices will be sent by e-mail. Rule 40D-1.659, F.A.C., is amended to incorporate by reference the Electronic Transaction Agreement.
