NOTICE IS HEREBY GIVEN that on July 27, 2007, the Department of Environmental Protection has issued an order.
The Petitioner, Lawrence M. Calhoun on behalf of C. C. Calhoun, Inc., requested a variance from subsection 62-701.730(11), Florida Administrative Code, which requires that escrow accounts established to provide financial assurance for closure be funded annually. The Petitioner has demonstrated that, because its facility has not received any solid waste, retaining less than the required funding in the escrow account will achieve the purposes of the underlying statute, and that requiring full funding would create a substantial hardship. Notice of receipt of the petition was published in the F.A.W., Vol. 33, No. 27, July 6, 2007. No comments were received. The Department granted the request for variance.
A copy of the Order may be obtained by contacting: Richard Tedder, Section Administrator at the Department of Environmental Protection, Solid Waste Section, 2600 Blair Stone Road, MS 35, Tallahassee, Florida 32399-2400, (850)245-8735, or e-mail to richard.tedder@dep.state.fl.us.
