- Notices of Development of Proposed Rules and Negotiated Rulemaking (7)
-
The agency is proposing amendment to Rule 59B-9.032, F.A.C., to reinstate the reporting exemption option for ambulatory surgical centers having volumes less than 200.
-
The purpose and effect of this rule development notice is to address possible rule changes for reef fish in the 2011 calendar year as a result of stock assessments, federal regulatory actions or other management or enforcement requirements.
-
The proposed rule change is necessary to prevent conflict with a rule development notice published in the FAW on February 18, 2011. That Notice of Rule Development addressed changes to Chapter 5F-11, Florida Administrative Code, which included incorporating NFPA 58, Liquefied Petroleum Gas Code, 2011 Edition and NFPA 54, National Fuel Gas Code, 2006 Edition, and other code-related materials into a new section in Rule 5F-11.004, Florida Administrative Code, allowing all materials pertaining to compliance with Chapter 527, Florida Statutes, and Chapter 5F-11, Florida Administrative Code, to be listed and incorporated in one rule section. Current Rule 5F-11.002, adopts the 2008 version, of NFPA 58, and is in conflict with proposed Rule 5F-11.004, Florida Administrative Code.
The proposed rule development removes all references in Rule 5F-11.002, Florida Administrative Code, to a particular edition of both NFPA 58, Liquefied Petroleum Gas Code, and NFPA 54, National Fuel Gas Code. This language is not necessary in this section. It also removes reference to particular numbered sections in each standard that were not adopted in Florida.

Rule 12A-1.074, F.A.C. (Trade-Ins), provides that for a trade-in credit to be allowed against the sales price of an item, any used article to be taken in trade must be taken “at the time of sale.” In Department of Revenue v. Gamestop, Inc. (Case No. 1D10-2899, November 18, 2010), the appellate court affirmed that the phrase “at the time of sale” effectively negates Section 212.09, F.S., and is an invalid exercise of delegated legislative authority. The purpose of the proposed amendments to this rule is to remove the phrase “at the time of sale.”
The subject of the provisions of Rule 12A-1.018, F.A.C. (Trade and Cash Discounts), is discounts, not trade-ins. Consistent with the court’s ruling in Department of Revenue v. Gamestop, Inc., the purpose of the proposed amendments to this rule is to remove the unnecessary reference to the term “trade-ins.”
-
Subsection 12C-1.013(5), F.A.C. (Adjusted Federal Income Defined), reflects the provisions of Section 220.13(1)(a)1., F.S., which requires an addition to federal taxable income equal to the amount of any tax upon or measured by income for Florida corporate income tax purposes. This rule subsection also provides that value-added taxes are not required to be added back to federal income for purposes of computing the Florida corporate income tax. The Michigan single business tax is included as an example of a value-added tax. On January 1, 2008, Michigan replaced its single business tax with a business tax based on income. The purpose of this rulemaking is to remove provisions regarding the now obsolete Michigan single business tax.
-
Section 206.8745(6), F.S., grants a refund, as provided by rule, for undyed tax-paid diesel fuel that is consumed by a power take-off unit or engine exhaust for the purpose of unloading bulk cargo by pumping when the power take-off unit or engine exhaust is mounted on a motor vehicle that has no separate fuel tank. The purpose of this rulemaking is to provide the proposed standards for granting refunds of the tax paid on undyed diesel fuel that is consumed by a power take-off unit or engine exhaust for the purpose of unloading bulk cargo by pumping using a hydraulic, pneumatic, or any other kind of pump. When in effective, proposed subparagraph (2)(a)2. of Rule 12B-5.130, F.A.C., and the proposed revisions to Form DR-309639, Application for Refund of Tax Paid on Undyed Diesel Used for Off-road or Other Exempt Purposes, will provide: (1) the types of vehicles that qualify for the refund; (2) the information that will be required for each qualified vehicle; (3) the qualified vehicle’s percentage of fuel consumed for purposes of unloading bulk cargo by pumping; (4) how to determine the gallons of undyed diesel fuel that are eligible for refund; and (5) how to determine the amount of sales tax due on the eligible fuel.

- Proposed Rules (7)
-
Prior to amendment effective July 12, 2010, Rule 12A-1.020, F.A.C., provided that germicides used in the treatment of drinking water and sewage are exempt from tax. Provisions regarding the treatment of germicides for treating drinking water were moved to Rule 12A-1.011, F.A.C., effective November 3, 2009; however, provisions regarding germicide used to treat sewage were omitted from the amendments to Rule 12A-1.011, F.A.C. The purpose of the proposed amendments to Rule 12A-1.011, F.A.C. (Sales of Food Products for Human Consumption by Grocery Stores, Convenience Stores, and Supermarkets; Sales of Bakery Products by Bakeries, Pastry Shops, or Like Establishments; Drinking Water; Ice), is to add that germicides used in the treatment of sewage are exempt from tax.
-
Rule 12A-1.0143, F.A.C. (Manufacturing and Spaceport Investment Incentive Program Tax Refunds), is being created to provide procedures to be used in obtaining a refund of taxes paid on purchases of eligible equipment authorized by the Manufacturing and Spaceport Investment Incentive Program administered by the Office of Tourism, Trade, and Economic Development. When in effect, this rule will provide how to obtain a refund of taxes paid on purchases of eligible equipment authorized under the Program and the time frame for filing an application for refund with the Department of Revenue.
-
The purpose of the proposed amendments to Rule 12-24.011, F.A.C. (Public Use Forms), is to adopt, by reference, updates to forms used by the Department in its e-Services Program.
-
The purpose of the proposed amendments to Rule Chapter 12-28, F.A.C., is to expand the chapter to include provisions for the remittance of traffic infraction detector penalties collected by municipalities or counties to the Department for disbursement to designated state funds, as provided in Section 316.0083, F.S., created by Section 5, Chapter 2010-80, L.O.F. In addition, the rule chapter is being updated to reflect the following law changes regarding the remittance/reporting of court-related fees by Clerks of the Court to the Department for distribution to designated state funds:
• Section 12, Chapter 2010-162, L.O.F., amends Section 28.245, F.S., to require Clerks of the Court to remit court-related charges to the Department by the 10th day of the month following the month of collection;
• Section 5, Chapter 2010-163, L.O.F., amends Section 322.20(11)(a), F.S., to require that the fees collected by the Clerk of the Court for providing transcripts or other documents or for assisting in search for an individual’s driver history record be remitted to the Department within five working days, unless a shorter time is required by law;
• Section 13, Chapter 2010-134, L.O.F., imposes an administrative fee for trustee deeds recorded, as provided in Sections 721.855 and 721.856, F.S., required to be collected by the Clerk of the Court and remitted to the Department weekly in the same manner as the documentary stamp tax collected by the Clerk of the Court; and
• Sections 4, 5, and 19, Chapter 2009-204, L.O.F., repealed Section 28.37(4), F.S., removing provisions for the remittance of the amount of funds in excess of the approved budget amount established in Section 28.36, F.S., to the Department, and transfer the Department of Revenue Clerk of Court Trust Fund to the Justice Administrative Commission.
When in effect, this rule chapter will include updated provisions for the electronic remittance and reporting of funds from all court-related charges collected by Clerks of the Court, and it will include provisions for the remittance of traffic infraction detector penalties imposed and collected by municipalities and counties for distribution to designated state funds by the Department.
-
The purpose of establishing Rule Chapter 12-29, F.A.C. (Multitax Credits), is to establish a rule chapter to set forth rules to be used in the administration of tax credit programs that authorize eligible taxpayers to receive tax credits against more than one tax.
The Florida Tax Credit Scholarship Program, as amended by Chapter 2010-24, L.O.F., allows taxpayers to receive a credit allocation for contributions made to nonprofit scholarship funding organizations. The referenced law expands the tax credits against corporate income tax and insurance premium tax, transferring Section 220.187, F.S., to new Section 1002.395, F.S., creating Sections 211.0251, 212.1831, 220.1875, and 561.1211, F.S., and amending Section 624.51055, F.S.
Beginning July 1, 2010, taxpayers were allowed to apply for a credit allocation for contributions to a nonprofit scholarship funding organization for a tax credit against excise taxes on liquor, wine, and malt beverages administered by the Division of Alcoholic Beverages and Tobacco of the Florida Department of Business and Professional Regulation. Beginning January 1, 2011, certain taxpayers are allowed to apply for a credit allocation to be taken as a tax credit against sales and use tax, and taxpayers who pay the tax on oil and gas production in Florida are allowed to apply for a credit allocation to be taken as a tax credit.
When in effect, this rule chapter will establish rules for administering the tax credits for contributions made to nonprofit scholarship funding organizations under Section 1002.395, F.S., Florida Tax Credit Scholarship Program, including the procedures and applications governing the approval of tax credit allocations and rescindments, the procedures to be followed by taxpayers when claiming tax credits on tax returns, and the procedures to obtain approval to carry forward tax credits to a subsequent tax year.

The Florida Tax Credit Scholarship Program, as amended by Chapter 2010-24, L.O.F., allows taxpayers to receive a credit allocation for contributions made to nonprofit scholarship funding organizations. This law expands the tax credits against corporate income tax and insurance premium tax, transferring Section 220.187, F.S., to new Section 1002.395, F.S., and amending Section 624.51055, F.S. Taxpayers continue to be allowed to apply for a credit allocation to be taken as a tax credit against insurance premium tax, as provided in Section 624.51055, F.S., as amended by Section 11, Chapter 2010-24, L.O.F. When in effect, proposed Rule Chapter 12-29, F.A.C., Multitax Credits, will establish the procedures governing the approval of tax credit allocations and rescindments, the approval for carryforward tax credits to a subsequent tax year, and the procedures to be followed by taxpayers when claiming tax credits on tax returns.
The purpose of the proposed changes to Rule 12B-8.001, F.A.C. (Premium Tax; Rate and Computation), is to remove provisions regarding the credit against insurance premium tax for contributions made to eligible nonprofit scholarship funding organizations that will be provided in Rule Chapter 12-29, F.A.C., when effective.

The proposed changes to Rule Chapter 12C-1, F.A.C., are necessary to update reference to the new law for purposes of the credit for the Florida alternative minimum tax and to remove rule provisions and forms relating to tax credits for contributions to nonprofit scholarship funding organizations prior to July 1, 2010. When in effect, proposed Rule Chapter 12-29, F.A.C. (Multitax Credits), will establish the procedures governing the approval of tax credit allocations and rescindments, the approval for carryforward tax credits to a subsequent tax year, and the procedures to be followed by taxpayers when claiming tax credits on tax returns.

The Board’s Order, filed on February 18, 2011, answers the Petition for Declaratory Statement that pursuant to Section 489.117(4)(a), Florida Statutes, a locally licensed person whose job scope does not substantially correspond to that of a certified specialty contractor established by Board rule is not required to register with the Board to perform within the respective job scope.
Therefore, the Board answers the question in the affirmative. Lake County may locally register and license marine specialty contractors, and those locally registered marine specialty contractors are not required to register with the Board.
