(1) Approved WQMPs expire after 5 years. At least 180 days before expiration of an approved WQMP, the nonpoint source discharger shall resubmit for District approval a WQMP that meets all the requirements of this chapter and Fl. Admin. Code Chapter 62-160
    (2) A nonpoint source discharger with an approved WQMP may elect to enroll in an appropriate rule-adopted BMP program in lieu of implementing a WQMP at any time. The nonpoint source discharger must provide verification to the District by electronic mail or in writing that they are actively enrolled in a BMP program adopted under a BMAP. If the information submitted sufficiently demonstrates the nonpoint source discharger’s participation in a BMP program adopted under a BMAP, the District will notify the nonpoint source discharger that its WQMP is no longer necessary.
    (3) If the property operating under an approved WQMP is sold, the nonpoint source discharger must notify the District within 30 days. If the new property owner decides not to implement BMPs as required under a BMAP, the new owner must submit for District approval a WQMP to demonstrate attainment of the water quality criteria for the parameters addressed by the BMAP within 180 days of the sale.
