The Water Well Contractor Disciplinary Guidelines and Procedure Manual and the Florida Unified Citations Dictionary For Water Well Construction will be adopted by reference and both will be simplified to meet the statutory obligation of informing the public of likely disciplinary action for violations of water well contractor licensing, permitting and construction requirements. The requirements for water well contractor licensure will be updated to reflect recent statutory changes. The administrative fine up to $5,000 per occurrence for any person not licensed to practice water well contracting will be added, as will the maximum administrative fine for any water well contractor found in violation of the water well rules or statute be increased to $5,000. Lastly, there is a change for license renewal in the time period for accrual of CEUs from 24 months to 30 months before the license renewal deadline.
