RULE NO.:RULE TITLE:

64I-3.001Rural Hospital Capital Improvement Grant Application Procedures

PURPOSE AND EFFECT: To repeal this rule.

SUMMARY: This rule provides an application process for rural hospital capital improvement grants. The grant program has not been funded by the legislature for years and the rule is no longer necessary. If funding is appropriated in the future, a new rule can be promulgated at that time.

SUMMARY OF STATEMENT OF ESTIMATED REGULATORY COSTS AND LEGISLATIVE RATIFICATION: The Agency has determined that this will not have an adverse impact on small business or likely increase directly or indirectly regulatory costs in excess of $200,000 in the aggregate within one year after the implementation of the rule. A SERC has not been prepared by the Agency.

The Agency has determined that the proposed rule is not expected to require legislative ratification based on the statement of estimated regulatory costs or if no SERC is required, the information expressly relied upon and described herein: Based on the SERC checklist, this rulemaking will not have an adverse impact on regulatory costs in excess of $1 million within five years as established in s.120.541(2)(a), F.S.

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