The Suwannee River Water Management District (SRWMD) hereby gives notice:
On September 14, 2012, granted a Final Order. This Order (12-0008) granted variance/waiver under Section 120.542, F.S., to Columbia County Board of Commissioners, P. O. Box 1529, Lake City, FL 32056. The petition for variance was received by SRWMD on July 17, 2012, and revised on August 15, 2012. Notice of receipt of petition requesting variance was published in F.A.W., Vol. 38, Number 31, on August 3, 2012. No public comment was received. This Order provides variance/waivers from SRWMD from subsection 40B-4.3030(12), F.A.C., as to the 75-foot setback requirements. Petitioner states that the existing Bridge site is in need of repair due to eroding banks from misuse and this would improve water quality and reduce sedimentation. The project is located in Columbia County, Township 1 North, Range 16 East, Section 36. SRWMD granted the petition because the petitioner has demonstrated that the purpose of the statute underlying the rule will be met and that a substantial hardship would be created if the petitioners were required to comply with this rule.
A copy of the Order or additional information may be obtained by contacting:
