61G6-6.017: Duration of Examination Scores
The Electrical Contractors’ Licensing Board hereby gives notice:
of the issuance of an Order regarding the Petition for Waiver or Variance which was filed on October 14, 2011, by Daryl Johnson. The Notice of Petition for Variance/Waiver was published in Vol. 37, No. 43, of the October 28, 2011, Florida Administrative Weekly. Petitioner sought a waiver or variance from Rule 61G6-6.017, Florida Administrative Code, entitled, “Duration of Examination Scores,” which requires for the purpose of certification, a passing examination score on any part of the examination shall be valid only for a period of two (2) years from the date of the examination. The Board considered the instant Petition at a duly-noticed public meeting, held November 16-18, 2011, in Gainesville, Florida.
The Board’s Order, filed on December 12, 2011, granted the petition, finding Petitioner had demonstrated that application of the rule to his circumstances would violate the principles of fairness and would impose a substantial hardship on him.
A copy of the Order or additional information may be obtained by contacting:
Juanita Chastain, Executive Director, Electrical Contractors’ Licensing Board, 1940 North Monroe Street, Tallahassee, Florida 32399-0750.
