PURPOSE AND EFFECT: Rules 69A-47.013 and 69A-47.014, F.A.C., are being repealed because they are unnecessary. Rules 69A-47.016 and 69A-47.017, F.A.C., are being modified to require their compliance with Section 399.15(3), F.S.

SUMMARY: Rules 69A-47.013 and 69A-47.014, F.A.C., relating to elevator access are being repealed. Rules 69A-47.016 and 69A-47.017, F.A.C., are being modified to remove text that repeats Section 399.15(3), F.S., and to reflect that access to elevator keys and the prohibition of the duplication of elevator keys shall be in compliance with Section 399.1 (3), F.S.

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 Department conducted an economic analysis of the potential impact of the proposed rule and determined that there will be no adverse economic impact or regulatory increases that would require legislative ratification.

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.
