RULES AND PROCEDURES FOR COASTAL CONSTRUCTION AND EXCAVATION (PERMITS FOR CONSTRUCTION SEAWARD OF THE COASTAL CONSTRUCTION CONTROL LINE AND FIFTY-FOOT SETBACK)

Overview

RULE:

62B-33.002	Definitions
62B-33.0051	Coastal Armoring and Related Structures

PURPOSE:

Laws of Florida Chapter 2007-99 amended Chapter 161.085 of the Florida Statutes relating to rigid coastal armoring structures in order to provide criteria to permit sand-filled geotextile containers used as the core of a reconstructed dune. This led to the development of Chapter 62B-56, F.A.C., entitled “Rules and Procedures for Using Sand-Filled Geotextile Dune Cores (Permits for Construction and Maintenance)”. The proposed changes to Chapter 62B-33, F.A.C. will bring the chapter into conformity with section 161.085, Florida Statute, and Chapter 62B-56, F.A.C. These changes shall be made simultaneously with the creation of Chapter 62B-56, F.A.C.

SUMMARY:

The proposed changes to Chapter 62B-33, F.A.C. will clarify that Chapter 62B-56, F.A.C. will govern the use of all sand-filled geotextile containers as the core of a reconstructed dune and that sand-filled geotextile containers shall not be authorized by local governments as an emergency armoring structure.
