Intergovernmental Coordination & Review (ICR)
Process
Presidential Executive Order 12372, and Governor's
Executive Order 95-359 established the ICR Process.
Florida State Executive Order 83-150 designated Florida's
eleven regional planning councils as "regional
clearinghouses" giving the regional planning councils
responsibility for coordinating local reviews of projects.
The Treasure Coast Regional Planning Council coordinates
its review with the State Clearinghouse located in the
Florida Department of Environmental Protection.
ICR reviews fall into two broad categories:
 |
1. |
grant applications that request any
federal funding |
| |
2. |
projects that may impact the environment
or local government jurisdiction |
Examples for the second type of review (#2 above) are
not limited but include the following:
|
1.
|
environmental resource
permits from the South Florida Water Management
District |
| |
2.
|
dredge and fill permit applications from the
U.S. Army Corps of Engineers and the Florida Department
of Environmental Protection
|
| |
3.
|
consistency projects from
the Florida State Clearinghouse/Florida Coastal
Management Program |
| |
4.
|
transportation improvement
programs and unified planning work programs submitted
by Metropolitan Planning Organizations |
Each application is reviewed for consistency with the
Strategic Regional Policy Plan .
Additionally, projects in the second category above
that require a federal permit may be reviewed for consistency
with Florida's Coastal Management Program.
All applications should be sent to the Florida State
Clearinghouse for review:
