- an Emergency Variance for paragraph 61C-1.004(1)(a), Florida Administrative Code, Section 5-203.13, 2001 FDA Food Code and subsections 61C-4.010(6), (7), Florida Administrative Code, from Ocean Ave. Green Market 2 located in Boynton Beach, FL. The above referenced F.A.C. addresses the requirement that at least one service sink is provided for the cleaning of mops or similar cleaning tools and the disposal of mop water and that at least one accessible bathroom is provided for use by customers. They are requesting to share mop sink and bathrooms for customers only located within another establishment under the same ownership.
The Petition was published in Vol. 37, No. 1 on January 7, 2011, and after a complete review of the variance request, the Division finds that the application of this Rule will create a financial hardship to the food service establishment. Furthermore, the Division finds that the Petitioner meets the burden of demonstrating that the underlying statute has been achieved by the Petitioner ensuring the mop sink and bathroom facilities located within Ocean Avenue Green Market (SEA6019753) are maintained in a clean and sanitary manner and all sinks are provided with running water under pressure and are available during all hours of operation. The Petitioner shall also ensure directional signage is installed within or outside the establishment clearly stating the location of the bathrooms. If the hours of operation or ownership the Ocean Avenue Green Market (SEA6019753) changes, an updated signed agreement for use of the mop sink and bathroom facilities is required immediately.

- an emergency variance or waiver from DigiDeal Corporation, Petitioner, DBPR Case No. 2011002903 (VW 2011-018). Petitioner is a slot machine manufacturer licensed pursuant to Chapter 551, Florida Statutes, whose address, for the purposes of its Petition, is c/o Rutledge, Ecenia & Purnell, P.A., 119 South Monroe Street, Suite 202, Tallahassee, Florida 32301. The Petition lists Rule 61D-14.042, Florida Administrative Code (F.A.C.), from which it seeks an emergency variance or waiver. Specifically, the Petitioner requests a variance from or waiver of the requirement of subsection 61D-14.042(1), F.A.C., that requires each slot machine in Florida have an “electro-mechanical meter [to] measure total credits into the slot machine [and an] electro-mechanical meter [to] measure total credits out of the slot machine.” Petitioner desires to market its Digital Table System – Virtual (DTS-V) slot machine in Florida which uses state-of-the art electronic metering rather than electro- mechanical metering. The requested variance/waiver would permit use of electronic metering in Petitioner’s DTS-V slot machine, which in all other respects complies with or exceeds the requirements of Rule 61D-14.042, F.A.C. Petitioner requests the emergency variance/waiver because of severe financial hardship that it would otherwise incur were the Rule’s literal requirement of electro-mechanical meters to nevertheless be applied in its case. Any person whose substantial interests may be affected by a variance on the subject matter of the Petition may file a petition to intervene within 5 days of the publication of this notice.
