40D-1.659: Forms and Instructions
PURPOSE AND EFFECT: The purpose of the rule amendment is to incorporate by reference revisions to the Environmental Resource Permit (ERP) Application, Form 547.27/ERP (2/05), that request information regarding applicants that are corporations, partnerships or trusts. The effect of the proposed revisions will help ensure that ERPs are issued to legal entities, in the correct name.
SUMMARY: Business entities such as corporations and partnerships are frequently applicants for Environmental Resource Permits (ERPs). Compliance difficulties can arise with permits issued to business entities if the permittee is not accurately identified. For example, a permit issued to an entity that is not properly incorporated, or in an incorrect name, may not be enforceable. The revisions to the ERP Application, Form 542.27/ERP (2/05), request information on applicants who are corporations, partnerships or trusts. The requested information will ensure that ERPs are issued to legal entities, in the correct name. The amendment of Rule 40D-1.659, F.A.C., incorporates the revised form.
SUMMARY OF STATEMENT OF ESTIMATED REGULATORY COSTS: No Statement of Estimated Regulatory Cost was prepared.
Any person who wishes to provide information regarding a statement of estimated regulatory costs, or provide a proposal for a lower cost regulatory alternative must do so in writing within 21 days of this notice.
