- Division of Hotels and Restaurants
- On December 04, 2012 the Division of Hotels and Restaurants received a Petition for a Routine Variance for Paragraph 4-301.12(A), 2001 FDA Food Code and Paragraph 61C-4.010(5), Florida Administrative Code from Building 72B located in Orlando. The above referenced F.A.C. addresses the requirement that dishwashing facilities for manually washing, rinsing and sanitizing equipment and utensils are provided. They are requesting to share the three-compartment sink located within an adjacent business (license 5805767) under the same ownership.
The Petition for this variance was published in Vol. 38/87 on December 10, 2012.
The Order for this Petition was signed on December 26, 2012 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 that the dishwashing area within the International License 5805767 is maintained in a clean and sanitary manner, provided with hot and cold runnig water under pressure and is available during all hours of operation. If the ownership of License 5805767 changes, a written agreement must be provided to the division immediately.
- Catalyst. Petitioner seeks a variance of the requirements of ASME A17.1, Section 2.20.4, 2.18.5 and 8.11.2.1.3(cc)(1) & (3) as adopted by 61C-5.001(1)(a), Florida Administrative Code that requires steel ropes of a minimum diameter of 9.5 mm which poses a significant economic/financial hardship. Any interested person may file comments within 14 days of the publication of this notice with Mark Boutin, Bureau of Elevator Safety, 1940 North Monroe Street, Tallahassee, Florida 32399-1013 (VW2012-413).

- that on December 13, 2012, the Department issued an order granting a variance to the Florida Governmental Utility Authority (Petitioner) for its Lake Fairways wastewater treatment plant located at US Hwy 41 and Lake Fairways Blvd., North Fort Myers, Fl 33918. The petition was received on October 24, 2012, and the notice of receipt of this petition was published in the Florida Administrative Register on November 6, 2012. The petition requested a variance from subsection 62-610.462(3), F.A.C. Subsection 62-610.462(3), F.A.C., requires staffing by a Class C operator 6 hours per day, 7 days per week at the Petitioner's wastewater treatment plant. Although the Petitioner requested a permanent variance from those minimum staffing requirements the Department limited the duration of the variance to coincide with the remaining duration of Petitioner's current permit, which expires on September 6, 2017. Petitioner requested that the staffing requirement be reduced to 6 hours a day for 5 days a week with a one hour weekend visit. No public comment was received. The Order, OGC File No. 12-1633, granted the Petition for the variance to reduce the staffing requirement to 6 hours a day for 5 days a week with a one hour weekend visit, based on a showing that Petitioner demonstrated that a strict application of the rule would result in substantial hardship to Petitioner or would affect Petitioner differently than other similarly situated applicants and because Petitioner had successfully fulfilled the requirements of the underlying statute.

- Section 373.4131, Florida Statutes, became effective on July 1, 2012, and requires the Department of Environmental Protection (DEP) in coordination with the five water management districts (WMDs) to develop statewide environmental resource permitting (ERP) rules. These rules are to rely primarily upon existing rules of the DEP and WMDs, but may be revised as necessary to achieve a more consistent, effective, and streamlined approach in the State’s ERP program. To implement Section 373.4131(1), FS., DEP has initiated rulemaking to revise rule chapter 62-330, F.A.C. The revisions to this rule chapter will necessitate amendments to St. Johns River Water Management District (SJRWMD) rule chapters 40C-1, 40C-4, 40C-41, 40C-42 and 40C-44, F.A.C. As part of its rulemaking, DEP also intends to incorporate by reference an applicant’s handbook. At least two volumes of the applicant’s handbook will apply in each WMD: (1) one volume that will include general and environmental procedures and forms that will apply statewide, and (2) a second volume specific to, and adopted by, the WMD that will (a) set forth design and performance standards for stormwater quality and quantity; (b) include basin designations and basin-specific rules within the WMD; and (c) address any District-specific thresholds and exemptions referenced in Chapter 62-330. These volumes will replace and/or amend the SJRWMD’s current applicant’s handbooks. Comments will be solicited regarding amendments to Chapters 40C-1, 40C-4, 40C-41, 40C-42 and 40C-44, F.A.C., and a document to be known as “Environmental Resource Permit Applicant’s Handbook, Volume II: For Use within the Geographic Limits of the St. Johns River Water Management District,” which is based on existing provisions contained in the SJRWMD’s current applicant’s handbooks.

These rules are to rely primarily upon existing rules of the DEP and WMDs, but may be revised as necessary to achieve a more consistent, effective, and streamlined approach in the State’s ERP program. To implement Section 373.4131(1), FS., DEP has initiated rulemaking to revise rule chapter 62-330, F.A.C. The revisions to this rule chapter will necessitate amendments to St. Johns River Water Management District (SJRWMD) rule chapters 40C-1, 40C-4, 40C-41, 40C-42 and 40C-44, F.A.C. As part of its rulemaking, DEP also intends to incorporate by reference an applicant’s handbook. At least two volumes of the applicant’s handbook will apply in each WMD: (1) one volume that will include general and environmental procedures and forms that will apply statewide, and (2) a second volume specific to, and adopted by, the WMD that will (a) set forth design and performance standards for stormwater quality and quantity; (b) include basin designations and basin-specific rules within the WMD; and (c) address any District-specific thresholds and exemptions referenced in Chapter 62-330. These volumes will replace and/or amend the SJRWMD’s current applicant’s handbooks. Comments will be solicited regarding amendments to Chapters 40C-1, 40C-4, 40C-41, 40C-42 and 40C-44, F.A.C., and a document to be known as “Environmental Resource Permit Applicant’s Handbook, Volume II: For Use within the Geographic Limits of the St. Johns River Water Management District,” which is based on existing provisions contained in the SJRWMD’s current applicant’s handbooks.
The District previously held a workshop regarding this rulemaking on September 14, 2012.
