    RULE NO.:RULE TITLE:

    5F-12.001Adoption of Examination Procedure for Price Verification

    PURPOSE AND EFFECT: The purpose of this rulemaking is to repeal Rule Chapter 5F-12, F.A.C.

    SUMMARY: The department is repealing this rule chapter because it is unnecessary. The Division of Standards no longer exists and the pertinent portions of the rule have been updated and consolidated with other weights, measures and standards rules into the Division of Consumer Services’ newly created Rule Chapter 5J-22, F.A.C.

    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 rule is redundant with other weights, measures and standards rules and is unnecessary. Additionally, no interested party submitted additional information regarding the economic impact.

    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.
