Upcoming meetings

The Department of Environmental Protection will present and seek comment on a draft recovery strategy that is designed to meet the Lower Santa Fe and Ichetucknee Rivers minimum flows currently under development. Purpose: The purpose of rule development is to strike the previously-adopted minimum flows for the Lower Santa Fe and Ichetucknee Rivers and Priority Springs (LSFIR) and adopt new minimum flows for the LSFIR and any associated recovery and prevention strategy. The minimum flows for the LSFIR and any associated recovery and prevention strategy will generally affect consumptive use permittees and may affect applicants for surface water management permits in all applicable water management districts without the need for further rulemaking by the water management districts.

THE PERSON TO BE CONTACTED REGARDING THE PROPOSED RULE DEVELOPMENT AND A COPY OF THE PRELIMINARY DRAFT, IF AVAILABLE, IS:

Pamela Flores, 850-245-3194, Pamela.Flores@FloridaDEP.gov.

THE PRELIMINARY TEXT OF THE PROPOSED RULE DEVELOPMENT IS AVAILABLE AT NO CHARGE FROM THE CONTACT PERSON OR BY VISITNG THE WEBSITE AT: https://floridadep.gov/water-policy/water-policy/content/office-water-policy-rulemaking.
