PURPOSE AND EFFECT: Repeals Rules 60D-5.003 and 60D-5.008, F.A.C., because they are unnecessary.

SUMMARY: Repeals Rule 60D-5.003, F.A.C., which redundantly requires publication in the Florida Administrative Register of certain agency announcements and Rule 60D-5.0081, F.A.C., which restates the underlying statute and puts non-statutory limits on the process of the Secretary’s response to emergencies.

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 has determined that there will be no adverse economic impact or regulatory increases that would require legislative ratification. No additional costs are associated with the implementation of these changes.

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.
