| 119 | authorized to institute proceedings against the owner of the |
| 120 | source of pollution to recover costs or damages associated with |
| 121 | the contamination of surface water or groundwater caused by |

| 133 | district, or the Department of Agriculture and Consumer |
| 134 | Services, in consultation with the department, shall institute a |
| 135 | reevaluation of the best management practice or other measure. |

| 137 | practice or other measure requires modification, the department, |
| 138 | a water management district, or the Department of Agriculture |
| 139 | and Consumer Services, as appropriate, shall revise the rule to |
