Environmental Resource Permitting (ERP) and Sovereign Submerged Lands (SSL) Rules

Environmental Resource Permitting Program
State Programmatic General Permit

On September 24, 1997, the Jacksonville District of the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (Corps) issued an expanded State Programmatic General Permit (SPGP III). The purpose of the SPGP III was to avoid duplication of permitting between the Corps and the Florida Department of Environmental Protection (DEP) for minor work located in waters of the United States, including navigable waters. Thus, the need for separate approval from the Corps would be mostly eliminated. SPGP III extended geographic coverage throughout the entire State of Florida, excluding Monroe County and those counties within the jurisdiction of the Northwest Florida Water Management District. The results of the SPGP III implementation demonstrated that environmental protection continued while increasing the service to the public. In the short time since the SPGP III was issued, we have seen a need to clarify, update, and reformat it. This SPGP (SPGP IV) now reflects the culmination of those actions, and will simplify the SPGP process and further increase the efficiency of both State and Federal staff in serving the public.
