The Notice of Petition for Declaratory Statement was published in Volume 42, No. 105, of the May 31, 2016 Florida Administrative Register. Petitioner seeks the agency’s opinion as to the applicability of 464.003(2), (3) and 464.012(2), F.S. and Rules 64B9-4.001(14) and 64B9-4.010, F.A.C., as it applies to the Petitioner.
