The Board of Acupuncture hereby gives notice that on July 6, 2017, a Notice of Intent to Deny was filed on the Petition for Variance or Waiver. The Petition was filed by Salvatore Gorla, on April 21, 2017, seeking a variance or waiver from Rule 64B1-3.010, F.A.C., regarding the requirement of the NCCAOM Bio-Med examination, and that NCCAOM be current. The Notice was published in Volume 43, No. 95 of the Florida Administrative Register, on May 16, 2017. The Board, at its meeting held on June 16, 2017, voted to deny the Petition for Variance or Waiver finding that the Petitioner did not show that the purpose of the underlying statute was achieved by other means, and that Petitioner did not show that application of the rule would create a substantial hardship or would violate the principles of fairness.
