The Agency has determined that the proposed rule is not expected to require legislative ratification based on the statement of estimated regulatory costs or if no SERC is required, the information expressly relied upon and described herein: Review and analysis of statutory sections cited for this rule determined that the rule being repealed is not consistent with statutory language cited as law implemented by this rule and included a repetition of statutory language. Based on that analysis, the Agency has determined that no legislative ratification pursuant to subsection 120.541(3), F.S. is required for this rule.
