62-708.300: Applicability
62-708.500: Public Disclosure of the Full Cost of Solid Waste Management

PURPOSE AND EFFECT: The purpose and effect of the proposed rule amendment will be to repeal rules identified during the comprehensive rule review required by Executive Order 11-01 as duplicative, unnecessarily burdensome, or no longer necessary.

SUMMARY: There is no statutory authority granting rulemaking authority for Rule 62-708.100, F.A.C. in Sections 403.704, F.S., or 403.7049, F.S. Although Rule 62-708.300 and Rule 62-708.500, F.A.C., are authorized by sections 403.704, F.S., and 403.7049, F.S., they are not mandated by statute and there will be no adverse consequences if they are repealed. These rules were created to provide clarification to the regulated public, but they are not necessary.

OTHER RULES INCORPORATING THIS RULE: None.

EFFECT ON THOSE OTHER RULES: N/A.

SUMMARY OF STATEMENT OF ESTIMATED REGULATORY COSTS: The proposed changes to rules 62-708.100 and 62-708.300 remove unnecessary and outdated language. There are no costs associated with removing these sections. The proposed changes to rule 62-708.500 will remove an unneeded requirement that applied to local governments. Removing this section will reduce costs for local governments. Thus, the proposed rules are not expected to require legislative ratification pursuant to subsection 120.541(3), F.S.

Any person who wishes to provide information regarding the 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.
