64B3-5.007Director; Limitations and Qualifications

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 July 13, 2017 by Avisa Asemi. The Notice of Petition for Waiver or Variance was published in Volume 43, Number 137, of the July 17, 2017, Florida Administrative Register. The Petitioner was seeking a waiver or variance of paragraph 64B3-5.007(2)(j), Florida Administrative Code, entitled “Director; Limitations and Qualifications,” which sets forth the education, training/experience and examination requirements for licensure as director in the specialty of Embryology.

The Board considered the instant Petition at a duly-noticed public telephonic meeting, held September 22, 2017. The Board’s Order, filed on October 30, 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 64B3-5.007(2)(j), 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.
