Fla. Admin. Code R. 62B-49.001

Current through Reg. 50, No. 124; June 25, 2024
Section 62B-49.001 - Scope

This chapter implements the provisions of Sections 161.055 and 373.427, F.S., by combining the regulatory requirements of the coastal construction program (Section 161.041, F.S.) with the environmental resource permit program (Part IV of Chapter 373, F.S.) to establish the joint coastal permit program. Activities that would have required both a coastal construction permit and an environmental resource permit are now authorized by a single joint coastal permit. In addition, this chapter provides for concurrent review of any activity requiring a joint coastal permit that also requires a proprietary authorization for use of sovereign submerged lands owned by the Board of Trustees of the Internal Improvement Trust Fund. This chapter also establishes procedures for processing applications for joint coastal permits and the linked proprietary authorizations. When applying for a joint coastal permit, in the event that there is a conflict between the procedural requirements of this chapter and other procedural rules promulgated pursuant to the referenced statutes, then this chapter shall govern. The standards and criteria for issuance of joint coastal permits include the criteria for an environmental resource permit pursuant to Chapter 62-330, F.A.C., the coastal construction criteria pursuant to Chapter 62B-41, F.A.C., and any specific criteria for issuance of a joint coastal permit listed in this chapter. The criteria for the associated proprietary authorizations are found in Chapters 18-18, 18-20, and 18-21, F.A.C.
