Southwest Florida Water Management District

Chapter:

REGULATION OF WELLS

Overview

RULE:

40D-3.037

Rules, Publications and Agreements Incorporated by Reference

PURPOSE:

The purpose and effect of this rulemaking is to incorporate by reference a revised appendix to the Memorandum of Agreement Between the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency, Region IV, Superfund Division and the Southwest Florida Water Management District, to add the Southern Solvents Superfund Site located in Hillsborough County to the list of sites under the agreement.

SUMMARY:

The Memorandum of Agreement (MOA) Between the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency, Region IV, Superfund Division, and the District outlines a cooperative relationship and protocol for sharing information when the District is reviewing permit applications for activity near selected Superfund sites. The MOA enables each agency to implement its respective regulatory practices in a manner that helps prevent additional ground water contamination impacts in areas near selected sites. For the District, this is typically addressed by taking into account the identified contamination and buffer zones when reviewing well construction and other permit applications. Persons considering a District permit for activities located near the selected sites may view the affected areas on the District’s website and thereby avoid activities that could potentially cause contaminants to spread. The MOA appendix will be revised to add Southern Solvents, located on W. Linebaugh Ave. near Gunn Highway in Tampa, to the list of Superfund Sites in the District covered under the MOA.
