| 3 | Amendment (with title amendment) |
| 4 | Remove lines 8647-8656 and insert: |
| 5 | Section 68. (1) Any permit or any other authorization |
| 6 | that was extended beyond January 1, 2012, under section 14 of |
| 7 | chapter 2009-96, Laws of Florida, as reauthorized by section 47 |
| 8 | of chapter 2010-147, Laws of Florida, and was ineligible for the |
| 9 | permit extension granted by section 46 of chapter 2010-147, Laws |
| 10 | of Florida, solely because of its extended expiration date, is |
| 11 | extended and renewed for an additional period of 2 years after |
| 12 | its previously scheduled expiration date. This extension is in |
| 13 | addition to the 2-year permit extension provided under section |
| 14 | 14 of chapter 2009-96, Laws of Florida. This section does not |
| 15 | prohibit conversion from the construction phase to the operation |
| 16 | phase upon completion of construction. |
| 17 | (2) The commencement and completion dates for any required |
| 18 | mitigation associated with a phased construction project shall |
| 19 | be extended such that mitigation takes place in the same |
| 20 | timeframe relative to the phase as originally permitted. |
| 21 | (3) The holder of a valid permit or other authorization |
| 22 | that is eligible for the 2-year extension shall notify the |
| 23 | authorizing agency in writing by December 31, 2011, identifying |
| 24 | the specific authorization for which the holder intends to use |
| 25 | the extension and the anticipated timeframe for acting on the |
| 26 | authorization. |
| 27 | (4) The extension provided for in subsection (1) does not |
| 28 | apply to: |
| 29 | (a) A permit or other authorization under any programmatic |
| 30 | or regional general permit issued by the Army Corps of |
| 31 | Engineers. |
| 32 | (b) A permit or other authorization held by an owner or |
| 33 | operator determined to be in significant noncompliance with the |
| 34 | conditions of the permit or authorization as established through |
| 35 | the issuance of a warning letter or notice of violation, the |
| 36 | initiation of formal enforcement, or other equivalent action by |
| 37 | the authorizing agency. |
| 38 | (c) A permit or other authorization, if granted an |
| 39 | extension, that would delay or prevent compliance with a court |
| 40 | order. |
| 41 | (5) Permits extended under this section shall continue to |
| 42 | be governed by rules in effect at the time the permit was |
| 43 | issued, except if it is demonstrated that the rules in effect at |
| 44 | the time the permit was issued would create an immediate threat |
| 45 | to public safety or health. This subsection applies to any |
| 46 | modification of the plans, terms, and conditions of the permit |
| 47 | that lessens the environmental impact, except that any such |
| 48 | modification may not extend the time limit beyond 2 additional |
| 49 | years. |
| 50 | (6) This section does not impair the authority of a county |
| 51 | or municipality to require the owner of a property that has |
| 52 | notified the county or municipality of the owner's intention to |
| 53 | receive the extension of time granted pursuant to this section |
| 54 | to maintain and secure the property in a safe and sanitary |
| 55 | condition in compliance with applicable laws and ordinances. |
