Admin. Code R. 68D-23.104 Upon receipt by this section of said copy of their permit, such private aids to navigation are exempt from further permitting and need not display a permit number.
(3) Every regulatory marker without a properly displayed permit number, in place in, on or over the waters of the state or shores thereof is declared a nuisance. The division and its officers and all other law enforcement officers charged with the enforcement of Florida Statutes Chapter 327, have the authority to remove or cause the removal of any unpermitted regulatory marker.
