The Board of Clinical Laboratory Personnel hereby gives notice of the issuance of an Order regarding the Petition for Waiver or Variance, which was filed on June 30, 2014, by Vanessa Negron-Asencio. The Notice of Petition for Waiver or Variance was published in Volume 40, Number 144, of the July 25, 2014, Florida Administrative Register. The Petitioner was seeking a waiver or variance of paragraph 64B3-5.003(3)(a), Option 3, Florida Administrative Code, entitled, “Technologist,” which sets forth the education, training/experience and examination requirements for a specialty licensure as a medical technologist.

The Board considered the instant Petition at a duly-noticed public meeting, held on August 8, 2014, in Orlando, Florida.

The Board further finds that Petitioner established that applying the requirements of the aforementioned rule to his circumstances would violate principles of fairness and impose substantial hardship.
