NOTICE OF CORRECTION

Notice is hereby given that the following correction has been made to the proposed rule in Vol. 42 No. 236, December 7, 2016 issue of the Florida Administrative Register.

To provide further detail on why legislative ratification is not required the paragraph titled, “SUMMARY OF STATEMENT OF ESTIMATED REGULATORY COST AND LEGISLATIVE RATIFICATION,” is corrected to read as follows: 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 implementation of the above-referenced proposed rules. The Agency has prepared a SERC for each of the above-referenced rules. Additionally, the Agency has revised the SERCs that it prepared for proposed Rules 69L-31.005 and 69L-31.016, F.A.C., to reflect the Proposals for Lower Cost Regulatory Alternatives to the aforementioned proposed rules that were submitted to the Agency by representatives acting on behalf of Parallon Business Performance Group. The Agency’s SERC analysis for each of the above referenced proposed rules utilized criteria established under paragraph 120.541(2)(a), F.S., and concludes that none of the proposed rules listed under Rule Chapter 69L-31, F.A.C., will have an adverse impact on economic growth, job creation or employment, private sector investment, business competitiveness, or will likely result in substantial increases in regulatory costs. Based on the Statement of Estimated Regulatory Cost that was prepared for each of the proposed rules, the Agency has determined that none of the proposed rules is expected to require legislative ratification. The Statement of Estimated Regulatory Cost for each of the above-referenced proposed rules is available by accessing the Department’s website at http://www.myfloridacfo.com/Division/WC/noticesRules.htm.
