Until such time, the permittee shall continue to monitor and report in accordance with previously effective permit requirements,if any. The Department's proposed agency action shall become final unless a timely petition for an administrative hearing is filed under sections 120.569 and 120.57 of the Florida Statutes before the deadline for filing a petition. The procedures for petitioning for a hearing are set forth below. A person whose substantial interests are affected by the Department's proposed permitting decision may petition for an administrative proceeding (hearing) under sections 120.569 and 120.57 of the Florida Statutes. The petition must contain the information set forth below and must be filed(received by the clerk) in the Office of General Counsel of the Department at 3900 Commonwealth Boulevard, Mail Station 35, Tallahassee,Florida 32399-3000. Petitions by the applicant or any of the parties listed below must be filed within fourteen days of receipt of this written notice.

Under section 120.60(3) of the Florida Statutes,however, any person who has asked the Department for notice of agency action may file a petition within fourteen days of receipt of such notice,regardless of the date of publication. The petitioner shall mail a copy of the petition to the applicant at the address indicated above at the time of filing. The failure of any person to file a petition within the appropriate time period shall constitute a waiver of that person's right to request an administrative determination(hearing) under sections 120.569 and 120.57 of the Florida Statutes. Any subsequent intervention(in a proceeding initiated by another party) www.dep.state.fl.us Winter Springs West WWTF January 21,2014 Page 2 of 3 will be only at the discretion of the presiding officer upon the filing of a motion in compliance with rule 28-106.205 of the Florida Administrative Code. A petition that disputes the material facts on which the Department's action is based must contain the following information: (a) The name,address,and telephone number of each petitioner; the name,address, and telephone number of the petitioner's representative, if any; the Department permit identification number and the county in which the subject matter or activity is located; (b)A statement of how and when each petitioner received notice of the Department action; (c) A statement of how each petitioner's substantial interests are affected by the Department action; (d)A statement of all disputed issues of material fact. If there are none, the petition must so indicate; (e) A statement of facts that the petitioner contends warrant reversal or modification of the Department action; (f) A concise statement of the ultimate facts alleged, as well as the rules and statutes which entitle the petitioner to relief;and. (g)A statement of the relief sought by the petitioner, stating precisely the action that the petitioner wants the Department to take. A petition that does not dispute the material facts on which the Department's action is based shall state that no such facts are in dispute and otherwise shall contain the same information as set forth above, as required by rule 28-106.301. Because the administrative hearing process is designed to formulate final agency action, the filing of a petition means that the Department's final action may be different from the position taken by it in this notice. Persons whose substantial interests will be affected by any such final decision of the Department have the right to petition to become a party to the proceeding, in accordance with the requirements set forth above. Mediation under section 120.573 of the Florida Statutes is not available for this proceeding. This action is final on the date filed with the Clerk of the Department unless a petition is filed in accordance with the above. Upon the timely filing of a petition this order will not be effective until further order of the Department. Any party to the order has the right to seek judicial review of the order under section 120.68 of the Florida Statutes, by the filing of a notice of appeal under rule 9.110 of the Florida Rules of Appellate Procedure with the Clerk of the Department in the Office of General Counsel, Mail Station 35, 3900 Commonwealth Boulevard, Tallahassee,Florida, 32399-3000; and by filing a copy of the notice of appeal accompanied by the applicable filing fees with the appropriate district court of appeal.
