Purpose


On October 1, 2008, the Chapter 64E-2, Division of Environment Health was transferred to the new rule Title 64J Division of Emergency Medical Operations. The definitions section of Rule 64E-2.001, F.A.C., which includes trauma-related definitions, was transferred to the definitions section in Chapter 64J-1, F.A.C., Emergency Medical Services. This notice is to alert the public that the Office of Trauma is proposing the creation of a definitions section in Chapter 64J-2, F.A.C., Trauma with cross references to emergency medical services definitions in Rule 64J-1.001, F.A.C., that relate to both Chapters 64J-1 and 64J-2, F.A.C. The only definition change is the definition of “department.” The definition of department in the proposed Chapter 64J-2, F.A.C., references the Office of Trauma. The notice also includes technical revisions in other sections of Chapter 64J-2, F.A.C., where the definition of “department” is referenced, to change this definition reference from subsections 64J-1.001(4) to 64J-2.001(4), F.A.C. A technical revision is included to correct the table number “IV” to table number “I” in Rule 64J-2.012, F.A.C.
