    The Petition for Waiver or Variance was filed on March 13, 2006, by Ellen K. Rampell. The Notice of Petition for Waiver or Variance was published in Vol. 32, No. 13, of the March 31, 2006, Florida Administrative Weekly. The Petitioner sought a waiver or variance of Rule 61H1-33.001(1), F.A.C., entitled “Certified Public Accountants Required to Comply with this Chapter” with regard to allowing an extension of time for completing the examination on Chapters 455 and 473, Florida Statutes. The Board considered the instant Petition at a duly-noticed public meeting, held April 21, 2006, in Tampa, Florida. The Board granted the petition finding that Petitioner established that the purpose of the underlying statute, Section 473.311, would be met by granting a variance or waiver from Rule 61H1-33.001(1), F.A.C. The Board further found that Petitioner had established that applying the requirements of the aforementioned Rule to her circumstances would violate principles of fairness and impose substantial hardship.
