Notice of Proposed Rule

DEPARTMENT OF EDUCATION
State Board of Education
RULE NO.: RULE TITLE:
6A-6.077: Preapprenticeship Programs
PURPOSE AND EFFECT: The purpose is to repeal the rule to remove inconsistencies, redundancies and unnecessary repetitions within the Florida Administrative Code pertaining to preapprenticeship programs. Since the last amendment in 1994, requirements and provisions pertaining to apprenticeship and preapprenticeship programs in Florida have been rewritten and approved by the State Board of Education in 2010, rendering this rule outdated, duplicative in nature and unnecessary.
SUMMARY: This rule is to be repealed.
SUMMARY OF STATEMENT OF ESTIMATED REGULATORY COSTS AND LEGISLATIVE RATIFICATION:
The Agency has determined that this will not have an adverse impact on small business or likely increase directly or indirectly regulatory costs in excess of $200,000 in the aggregate within one year after the implementation of the rule. A SERC has not been prepared by the agency.
This rule is to be repealed.
Any person who wishes to provide information regarding a statement of estimated regulatory costs, or provide a proposal for a lower cost regulatory alternative must do so in writing within 21 days of this notice.
