What it does

This bill relates to the adoption and use of certain general permits issued by the department of natural resources (DNR). Current law requires a person to file a written application with DNR if the person desires to erect, construct, use, or maintain a structure, dam, obstruction, deposit, or excavation in or on any floodway or floodplains or to erect, construct, maintain, or operate a dam on a navigable or meandered stream or on a stream for manufacturing or industrial purposes. After an investigation, DNR is required to approve or deny the application and impose conditions and terms.
