PURPOSE AND EFFECT: Rule Chapter 14-98, F.A.C., is being repealed as unnecessary and unsupported by a specific grant of rulemaking authority.

SUMMARY: Rule Chapter 14-98, F.A.C., is being repealed.

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: The Highway Traffic Safety Program does not impose any regulatory cost. Repeal of the rule is required due to lack of rulemaking authority.

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.

RULEMAKING AUTHORITY: 334.044(2) FS.
