(Industrial Machinery and Equipment for Use in a New or Expanding Business), is to: (1) incorporate the provisions of Chapter 2006-56, L.O.F., which amends Section 212.08(5)(b), F.S.

- variance or waiver from rule 64F-12.015(6)(d)(1)(b)(iii). The petitioner is Organon API Inc., 2136 South Wolf Road, Des Plaines, IL 60018, Contact Person: Fred Figa, Senior Legal Counsel, Organon USA Inc., Phone: 973-325-4503, Fax: 973-325-4705.
Organon API Inc. requests a variance from Florida Administrative Code 64F-12.015(6)(d)(1)(b)(iii). That section provides that a company may be licensed by the state as a non-resident manufacturer of prescription drugs if it is "a private label distributor and the private label distributor's prescription drugs are originally manufactured and labeled for the distributor and have not been repackaged." It is Organon API Inc.'s understanding that the Board of Pharmacy has interpreted this provision as requiring that the private label distributor's name appear on the product labels. Organon API Inc.'s name does not appear on the labels of the products manufactured for it and, therefore, Organon API Inc. requests a variance from this code requirement.
