 2  following requirements:

 3         1.  No active solid waste disposal activities shall

 4  take place within 500 feet of an existing residential

 5  structure unless the permit application was filed before the

 6  structure was in existence. The department may grant a

 7  variance from this setback requirement to an applicant who

 8  demonstrates that the facility is not expected to create a

 9  public nuisance or pose a significant threat to public health

10  or the environment if the variance is granted, or who can

11  demonstrate that compliance with the setback requirement would

12  create a substantial hardship or would violate principles of

13  fairness, as those terms are defined in s. 120.542.

14         2.  The applicant shall provide notice to adjacent

15  property owners that an application for the proposed facility

16  has been filed with the department. The notice must be sent by

17  certified mail, return receipt requested, to the mailing

18  address shown in the local property tax roll for each person

19  owning real property that has a common border with the

20  property to be used for the proposed facility. The notice

21  requirements in this subparagraph shall be applied in addition

22  to any other notice requirements imposed by law or department

23  rules.

24         (c)  An existing Class I municipal solid waste landfill

25  facility, waste-to-energy facility, or municipal solid waste

26  composting facility located with a 5-mile radius from the

27  perimeter of a county-owned and county-operated municipal
