    NOTICE OF CORRECTION

    Notice is hereby given that the following correction has been made to the proposed rule in Vol. 40 No. 94, May 14, 2014 issue of the Florida Administrative Register.

    The corrections are in response to concerns stated by the Joint Administrative Procedures Committee in letters dated May 29, 2014 and March 31, 2015 and to concerns stated by the Commission at its meeting on March 6, 2015. The corrections are as follows:

    The SUMMARY OF STATEMENT OF ESTIMATED REGULATORY COSTS AND LEGISLATIVE RATIFICATION shall read as:

    SUMMARY OF STATEMENT OF ESTIMATED REGULATORY COSTS AND LEGISLATIVE RATIFICATION: The Commission determined that the rule in question may very well have some adverse impact on entities that will qualify as small business. A SERC has been prepared by the Commission. The Commission has determined that the proposed rule is not expected to require legislative ratification based on the statement of estimated regulatory costs. In summary, the rule will not adversely impact economic growth, private-sector job creation or employment, or private-sector investments.  The rule will not directly or indirectly increase regulatory costs in excess of $1 million in the aggregate within 5 years after the implementation of the rule. The SERC prepared by the Commission staff estimates that the costs to small business will be approximately $100,000 in one year and $600,000 $613,591 over five years. The Commission estimates that all licensed participants who are transgender and those individuals over 40 years of age will be required to comply with the rule. The Commission licensed one transgender participant and approximately 50 participants over the age of 40 in FY 12-13 in the State of Florida that will be required to comply with the rule. The Commission will not incur any cost for enforcing the proposed rule within its current workload with existing staff. No cost will be incurred by any other state or local government for enforcing the proposed rule. Transactional costs incurred by individuals who are required to comply with the requirements of the proposed rule will be minimal. The additional costs imposed upon the licensees who bear the primary costs of the rule provide protection by ensuring the health and safety of the participants prior to entering the ring to participate in a pugilistic event. These increases in costs are minimal compared to the additional security it provides for the safety of the participants. There is a minimal impact on small business.

    Any person who wishes to provide information regarding a statement of estimated regulatory costs, or to provide a proposal for a lower cost regulatory alternative must do so in writing within 21 days of this notice.

     

    THE PERSON TO BE CONTACTED REGARDING THE PROPOSED RULE IS: Paul Waters, Executive Director, Florida State Boxing Commission, 1940 North Monroe Street, Tallahassee, Florida 32399-2202
