“PEER’s October 29th Overfile Request states that Venice operates a wastewater discharge facility (“Facility”) pursuant to an NPDES permit. The Facility is stated to be a major discharger whose effluent reaches two waterbodies that are Class III fresh waterbodies as described in the Florida Water Quality Standards. PEER alleges that FDEP has not taken adequate enforcement actions in regards to maintenance, operation and effluent violations committed by the permittee over the duration of the NPDES permit and its predecessor.”
