64B3-5.002:Supervisor

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 March 13, 2017, by William K. Vernier. The Notice of Petition for Waiver or Variance was published on March 31, 2017 in Volume 43, Number 63 of the Florida Administrative Register. The Petitioner was seeking a waiver or variance of paragraph 64B3-5.002(3)(a), Option 3b, 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 telephonic meeting, held June 2, 2017.

The Board’s Order, filed on June 20, 2017, 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 3b, F.A.C. The Board further finds that Petitioner failed to establish 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.
