Summary


The proposed emergency rule continues the policy established by Emergency Rule 61G15ER20-4 and removes the restriction that printed copies of digitally or electronically signed and sealed plans or documents are not considered signed and sealed, thus allowing printed copies to be used in any manner in which physically signed and embossed sealed plans could otherwise be. Removal of the restriction would only be for the ninety-day effective period of the emergency rule, while the FBPE proceeds with rulemaking to similarly amend existing rules 61G15-23.004 and 61G15-23.005, F.A.C., through December 31, 2020.
