The Board of Clinical Laboratory Personnel hereby gives notice of the issuance of an Order regarding the Petition for Waiver or Variance, which was filed on December 20, 2017, by Robert S. Bounds. The Notice of Petition for Waiver or Variance was published December 21, 2017 in Volume 43, Number 245 of the Florida Administrative Register. The Petitioner was seeking a waiver or variance of paragraph 64B3-5.002(3)(a), Option 3a, Florida Administrative Code, entitled “Supervisor,” which sets forth the education, training/experience and certification requirements for licensure as a supervisor. The Board considered the instant Petition at a duly-noticed public telephonic meeting, held February 2, 2018.

The Board’s Order, filed on February 19, 2018, granted the petition finding that Petitioner had established that the purpose of the underlying statute would be met by granting a variance or waiver from paragraph 64B3-5.002(3)(a) Option 3a, F.A.C. The Board further finds that Petitioner established that applying the requirements of the aforementioned rule to his circumstances would violate principles of fairness and impose substantial hardship.

A copy of the Order or additional information may be obtained by contacting: Anthony B. Spivey, Executive Director, Board of Clinical Laboratory Personnel, 4052 Bald Cypress Way, Bin C07, Tallahassee, Florida 32399-3257.
