Southwest Florida Water Management District

Chapter:

WATER USE PERMITS

Overview

RULE:

40D-2.091	Publications and Forms Incorporated by Reference
40D-2.101	Content of Application

PURPOSE:

The purpose of this rulemaking is to adopt and incorporate by reference a new Water Use Permit Application Form – Mining and Dewatering, Form No. LEG-R.032.01 (5/09). The effect will be that applicants will submit only one detailed water use permit application form for mining and dewatering uses instead of submitting an application form for an Individual or General water use permit and a supplemental form for providing more specific information on activities relating to mining and dewatering water uses.

SUMMARY:

The District is revising all of its Water Use Permit application forms in coordination with efforts to enhance electronic permitting capabilities through the District’s Water Management Information System, or WMIS, which has recently been expanded to allow electronic applications for all types of water use permits. The District is adopting a new form, Water Use Permit Application – Mining and Dewatering, Form No. LEG-R.032.01 (5/09) which is being incorporated by reference into Rule 40D-2.101, F.A.C. The new form will also be listed in Rule 40D-1.659, F.A.C., which lists all approved District forms. An updated Water Use Permit Information Manual Part B, “Basis of Review,” is also incorporated by reference in Rule 40D-2.091, F.A.C. The special permit conditions for mining-related permits as set forth in Section 6.2 of the District’s Basis of Review are revised to allow for submittal of ground and surface water levels referenced to North American Vertical Datum (NAVD) 1988 in addition to National Geodetic Vertical Datum (NGVD) 1929, as is allowed on the newly adopted form.
