    PURPOSE AND EFFECT: Amendment to Rule 11C-4.003, F.A.C., conforms to a 2013 legislative change requiring the electronic submission of palm prints and facial images (mug shots) by local law enforcement agencies sending arrest information to FDLE.

    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: OTHER RULES INCORPORATING THIS RULE: N/A. EFFECT ON THOSE OTHER RULES: N/A The proposed rule is not expected to exceed any of the criteria set forth in Section 120.541(2)(a), F.S., and thus, a legislative ratification is not required under Section 120.541(3), F.S. This determination is based upon the nature of the subject matter of the proposed amendment.

    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.
