RULE NO.: RULE TITLE:
6D-10.002: Student Residential Care Policies
PURPOSE AND EFFECT: The purpose and effect of the proposed rule amendment will be to repeal rules identified during a comprehensive rule review as duplicative, unnecessarily burdensome, or no longer necessary.
SUMMARY: Elimination of Rule 6D-10.002 F.A.C., identified during the comprehensive rule review as duplicative, unnecessarily burdensome, or no longer necessary. The sections proposed for repeal are either advisory in nature, repeat statutory provisions, duplicate requirements found in other rules of the agency, or are based on statutory authority that no longer exists.
SUMMARY OF STATEMENT OF ESTIMATED REGULATORY COSTS AND LEGISLATIVE RATIFICATION:
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 the implementation of the rule. A SERC has not been prepared by the agency.
The Agency has determined that the proposed rule is not expected to require legislative ratification based on the statement of estimated regulatory costs or if no SERC is required, the information expressly relied upon and described herein: The proposed repeals remove unnecessary or outdated language. There are no costs associated with removing these sections, and in some cases costs may be reduced.
Any person who wishes to provide information regarding a statement of estimated regulatory costs, or provide a proposal for a lower cost regulatory alternative must do so in writing within 21 days of this notice.
