Okaloosa County BOCC — May 19, 2015 — Jason Purdy email 042215

From: Purdy, Jason R. [mailto:Jason.R.Purdy@dep.state.fl.us] Sent: Wednesday, April 22, 2015 8:55 AM To: McDowell, Alison Subject: Longwood Park Alison, After speaking about the Longwood Park project yesterday, I hope my email can clarify any questions that may persist. As the project stands currently, the exemption verification you received expired on May 15, 2015. However, as the activity was deemed exempt the work can still be performed provided: the project design hasn’t changed, site conditions haven’t changed, and the governing rules or statutes have not changed (they haven’t). Additionally, your federal authorization extends until July 25, 2016 as permitted. I’ve attached a copy of your original permit letter with highlighted portions concerning timeframe, etc. Additionally, I’ve attached copies of 62-330, F.A.C. and 403.813, F.S. should there questions about the exempt nature of the project. Lastly, here is a link to a search portal of Florida Rules and Statutes: https://www.flrules.org/. It may prove useful to reference Florida Statute 253 or 373 or Florida Administrative Code Chapter 18-21, as referenced in the permit letter. Let me know if you have any questions. Take care.
