Notice of Development of Rulemaking

Department of Environmental Protection | Published on 6/26/2025
The Department (DEP) is initiating procedural rulemaking to revise and add clarification on the inclusion of Distributed Wastewater Treatment Systems (DWTS) for domestic wastewater facilities and activities permitting. DWTSs are comprised of one or more small, onsite wastewater treatment units that can provide improved treatment over traditional onsite sewage treatment and disposal systems (OSTDS) and have an improved capability for the multiple units of a DWTS to be remotely operated and maintained by a single, central wastewater utility. This notice supplements the Department’s March 27, 2025, notices of rule development for rules in Chapters 62-620, 62-621, and 62-699, F.A.C., (Vol. 51/60) to revise and add clarification on the inclusion of DWTS for domestic wastewater facilities.
