Purpose


Rule 25-4.002, F.A.C., would be amended to delete language which states that Parts II and V of Chapter 25-4, F.A.C., apply to residential service only. This language is outdated and does not correctly reflect that only certain rules in Parts II and V apply to residential service only; Rules 25-4.0185, 25-4.066, 25-4.070, and 25-4.073, F.A.C., would be amended to specifically identify which rule provisions apply to residential service only; Rules 25-4.112, 25-4.200, 25-4.202, and 25-4.069, F.A.C., would be repealed because they are unnecessary; Rule 25-4.019, F.A.C., would be repealed because it is unnecessary, with subsection 25-4.019(3), F.A.C., reworded and Rule 25-4.020 amended to include that reworded requirement; Rule 25-4.115 would be amended to delete paragraphs (1)(a)&(b) and (2)(b), (c) & (d) because they are unnecessary; Rule 25-4.022 would be amended to eliminate requirements which are redundant of other rules; Rule 25-4.023, F.A.C., would be amended to require reports only during times of named tropical systems; Rule 25-4.034, F.A.C., would be amended to incorporate the revised twenty-two rules currently in Chapter 25-9 which apply to ILECs; Rule 25-4.046, F.A.C., would be amended to clarify the circumstances and time frames related to filing the cost data; Rule 25-4.117, F.A.C., would be amended to include other toll free numbers which have been implemented since the time the rule was first adopted; Rules 25-4.0201, 25-4.067, 25-4.071, 25-4.072, 25-4.074, 25-4.083, 25-4.085, 25-4.107, 25-4.108, 25-4.109, 25-4.110, 25-4.113, and 25-4.210, F.A.C., would be revised or repealed based upon an evaluation of whether each rule is consistent with expressed legislative intent and is necessary to accomplish the apparent or expressed objectives of the specific provisions of law which it implements.
