    The Notice of Petition for Declaratory Statement was published in Vol. 40, No. 11, of the January 16, 2014, Florida Administrative Register. The Board considered the Petition at a duly-noticed public meeting held on February 14, 2014. The Petitioner is requesting the Board’s interpretation of Section 486.161(2)(b), Florida Statutes, regarding specific activities that could be performed during a conference and remain within the scope of the statutory exemption to requirements for licensure as a Physical Therapist in Florida. The Board’s Order, filed on March 5, 2014, declines to issue a Declaratory Statement. The Board determined that Petitioner has failed to provide sufficient facts regarding the activities to be performed such that the Board can make a fully informed decision. The cited statute, Section 486.161, Florida Statutes, may not be applicable, but rather Section 486.021(11), Florida Statutes may be more applicable to Petitioner’s circumstances, as the Board understands them from the limited facts presented.

    A copy of the Order Declining of the Petition for Declaratory Statement may be obtained by contacting: Allen Hall, Executive Director, Board of Physical Therapy Practice, 4052 Bald Cypress Way, Bin #C05, Tallahassee, Florida 32399-3255, (850)245-4373.
