NOTICE IS HEREBY GIVEN that on February 02, 2007, the Department of Health, received a petition for Variance from subparagraph 64E-16.007(2)(a)2., Florida Administrative Code, from Gary Gilliam, on behalf of ECOLOTEC. That rule prescribes a startup procedure to be conducted on a biomedical waste treatment unit prior to placing the unit into service. The Petitioner requests a variance from the rule to allow the Petitioner to vary from the rule requirement for specific placement of biological indicators in the treatment unit as prescribed in subparagraph 64E-16.007(2)(a)2., Florida Administrative Code. ECOLOTEC proposes to use internal temperature monitoring and an alternative placement of biological indictors to verify the treatment unit provides a satisfactory level of treatment.
