40D-400.500: General Permit for Construction, Operation, Maintenance, Alteration, Abandonment or Removal of Minor Silvicultural Surface Water Management Systems
PURPOSE AND EFFECT: The District proposes amendments to incorporate by reference the forms relating to noticed general Environmental Resource Permits (ERPs) into the ERP rules instead of into Rule 40D-1.659, F.A.C. The 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 re-numbered and revised to contain the specific citation to the rule in which the form will now be incorporated.
SUBJECT AREA TO BE ADDRESSED: Forms and Instructions.
