FL S0182

Deletes references to the Miami-Dade County Lake Belt Plan Implementation Committee's reports and replaces the requirement that mitigation fees be used consistent with those reports with approval by the Miami-Dade County Lake Belt Mitigation Committee.

Redirects the water treatment plant upgrade fee (15 cents per ton of limerock and sand sold) to be transferred to the South Florida Water Management District and deposited into the Lake Belt Mitigation Trust Fund beginning July 1, 2012.

Establishes that the water treatment plant upgrade fee transfer to the Lake Belt Mitigation Trust Fund continues until either $20 million is collected or quarterly pathogen sampling shows quarry lake water classified as Bin 2 or higher under the EPA's Long Term 2 Enhanced Surface Water Treatment Rule, whichever occurs first.

Allows mitigation fee proceeds to be used for seepage mitigation projects including groundwater and surface water management structures that improve wetland habitat and are approved by the Lake Belt Mitigation Committee, and expands eligible mitigation areas to include the Everglades watershed.

Specifies that administrative costs deducted from fee proceeds cannot exceed 3 percent of total revenues collected and must be reasonably attributable to the fee.
