64B3-5.002Supervisor

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 November 20, 2017, by Sandhya Boyapalle. The Notice of Petition for Waiver or Variance was published November 22, 2017 in Volume 43, Number 226 of the, Florida Administrative Register. The Petitioner was seeking a waiver or variance of paragraph 64B3-5.002(3)(a), Option 1a, Florida Administrative Code, entitled “Supervisor,” which sets forth the education, training/experience and examination requirements for licensure as a supervisor.

The Board considered the instant Petition at a duly-noticed public meeting, held December 7, 2017, in Orlando. The Board’s Order, filed on January 10, 2018, denied the petition finding that Petitioner had failed to establish that the purpose of the underlying statute would be met by granting a variance or waiver from paragraph 64B3-5.002(3)(a) Option 1a, F.A.C. The Board further finds that Petitioner failed to establish that applying the requirements of the aforementioned rule to her 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.
