Notice of Proposed Rule

Department:

DEPARTMENT OF BUSINESS AND PROFESSIONAL REGULATION

Division:

Florida Building Commission

Chapter:

PRODUCT APPROVAL

Overview

RULE:

61G20-3.007

Product Approval by the Commission

PURPOSE:

The purpose and effect of the proposed rule is to comply with Ch. 2013-193, Laws of Florida, that directed the Florida Building Commission to expand the Department’s scope of product approval to include applications for product approval using product evaluation reports for evaluation entities other than those from licensed engineers or architect, and to revise the payment screen of the on-line product and entity approval applications to correlate with the changes to the administration function of the State Product Approval Program.

SUMMARY:

As mandated by law, the proposed rule allows applications for product approval using product evaluation reports to be considered and approved by the Department under the expedited ten (10) days review process.  In addition, the proposed rule collapses the current split payment screen for the on-line product and entity approval applications into one payment screen providing payment to the Department as the product approval administrator without any change to the application fees.
