- The purpose of the proposed rule change is to clarify a complete single-leg amputation as above the knee for persons seeking permits for the mobility impaired, provide in rule how a mobility-impaired identification card is obtained and incorporate grammatical corrections and language standardization or clarification. The effect of the proposed rule is to clarify outdated rule language and provide a clear definition of complete single leg amputation.
- The purpose of this proposed revised rule is to protect native Florida freshwater turtle populations from over exploitation. Outdated references to other rules were updated.
- The purpose of the proposed rule is to prohibit waterfowl hunting from or within 30 yards of a permanent blind or from anything constructed in violation of Florida statutes on lakes Miccosukee, Iamonia, Carr, and Jackson in Leon and Jefferson Counties. The effect would be to reduce territorial conflicts among hunters and construction of unpermitted structures on sovereign submerged lands.
- The purpose of the proposed rule is to define “permanent blind.” The effect would be that hunters would understand the proposed changes to Rule 68A-12.002, F.A.C., which would prohibit waterfowl hunting from or within 30 yards of a permanent blind or from anything constructed in violation of Florida statutes on lakes Miccosukee, Iamonia, Carr, and Jackson in Leon and Jefferson Counties. In combination, the intent of these two rule changes would be to reduce territorial conflicts among hunters and construction of unpermitted structures on sovereign submerged lands.
