The conference will be held in Tallahassee in the auditorium of the Twin Towers Office Building, 2600 Blair Stone Road, on Wednesday, February 27, 1980, beginning at 9 a.m. At the conference, each agency, commission, district, muni- cipality or political subdivision of the state responsible for a specific water resources development program requiring federal assistance will be responsible for presentation of its program and the needs associated with that program. Programs eligible for funding include both study and construction projects which are normally carried out under authority of the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers and are covered under the broad categories of Navigation, Flood Control, Beach Erosion Control and Hurricane Protection, Water Supply, Floodplain Information, Environmental Restoration and Enhancement, and Urban Studies. The attached instructions detail the format for submissions. Please be as specific as possible when completing. the form, which should be submitted to the Department of Environmental Regulation by February 20, 1980, in order to provide staff review time prior to the conference. We encourage each proponent to make an oral presentation and to be present to answer any questions that might arise. This will facilitate proper inclusion in the state's fis- cal year 1982 program. Also enclosed is a schedule of the program through submission to the Congressional delegation. It should also be noted that inclusion in the state's Public Works Program does not affect the status of any federal or state permits that may be required. This remains a separate function and is the responsibility of the local sponsor to make timely application through established procedures. The Division of Permitting does review all applications for funding submitted through the Public Works Program and can advise on current status of permits. We look forward to your participation in the conference. Sincerely, �cobVarn Secretary - _ 48= ,� -
