    64B13-4.001: Examination Requirements

    The Board of Optometry hereby gives notice that an Order to Deny on the Petition for Waiver or Variance filed on September 15, 2010, by Jack W. Harvey, II, O.D has been issued. The Notice of Petition for Variance was published in Vol. 36, No. 38, of the September 24, 2010, Florida Administrative Weekly. The Petitioner, an out-of-state optometrist who had applied for an optometrist license in Florida, requests for reasons stated in the petition that the Board waives the requirement under Rule 64B13-4.001, F.A.C., pertaining to the National Examinations Requirements. The Board considered the petition at its meeting held on October 22, 2010, by telephone conference.

    The Board’s Order, filed on October 29, 2010, denied issuing a waiver or variance in response to this petitioner, as the petitioner has not demonstrated a unique hardship, and application to the rule to Petitioner does not violate principles of fairness.

    A copy of the Order or additional information may be obtained by contacting: Bruce Deterding, Executive Director, Board of Optometry, 4052 Bald Cypress Way, Bin #C07, Tallahassee, Florida 32399-3257.
