REGULATION OF WELLS

Overview

RULE:

40D-3.037	Rules, Publications and Agreements Incorporated by Reference
40D-3.101	Content of Application
40D-3.411	Well Completion Report
40D-3.531	Abandoned Well Plugging

PURPOSE:

The District proposes to amend Rules 40D-3.037, 40D-3.101, 40D-3.411, 40D-3.531, F.A.C., to incorporate by reference forms used in well construction-related activities into the rules for well construction instead of into Rule 40D-1.659, F.A.C. Proposed amendments are part of an overall rulemaking effort to incorporate District forms into the particular rule applicable to each individual form. The effect is to make District rules identifying forms available for public use consistent with requirements for incorporating materials by reference. Forms will also be renumbered and revised to contain the specific citation to the rule in which the form will now be incorporated.

SUMMARY:

Currently, all District forms are incorporated by reference into Rule 40D-1.659, F.A.C. In response to comments from the Joint Administrative Procedures Committee, amendments are proposed to incorporate District forms and other materials into the specific rule which addresses the particular form or material. Forms are renumbered and revised to contain the specific rule citation in which each form is now incorporated. Rule 40D-3.101, F.A.C., is amended to incorporate by reference the renumbered forms used in applying for a well construction permit. Rule 40D-3.411, F.A.C., is amended to incorporate by reference a renumbered well completion report form. Rule 40D-3.531, F.A.C., is amended to incorporate a renumbered well grouting/abandonment form.
