he Department of Environmental Protection has initiated rule development to make proposed amendments to Chapter 62B-41, F.A.C., “Rules and Procedures for Application for Coastal Construction Permits.” This Chapter contains the criteria and procedures for obtaining a Coastal Construction permit. The amendments to the rule address concerns raised by the Joint Administrative Procedures Committee and will update the rule to implement Laws of Florida 2012-65, that included changes in Section 161.041, F.S. The rule amendments will refine criteria for coastal construction permits for coastal armoring below the mean high water line, ocean fishing piers, inlet construction and maintenance, and beach restoration and nourishment. A Notice of Rule Development and Workshop was published in the Florida Administrative Register August 22, 2013 (Volume 39, Number 164). This notice is located on the Department of State’s web site at the following link: FLRules.org/gateway/View_Notice.asp?id=13410461. The draft rule is available on the Department’s Bureau of Beaches and Coastal Systems web site at: dep.state.fl.us/beaches/rule-dev.htm The workshop will be held at the date, time and place shown below, or you may attend via webinar by registering using the link to the left: September 20, 2013, at 9:30 AM Florida Department of Environmental Protection 2600 Blair Stone Road, BMC Room 176 Tallahassee, FL, 32399
