61G3-21.012: Notice of Non-Compliance
NOTICE OF CORRECTION
Notice is hereby given that the following correction has been made to the proposed rule in Vol. 35 No. 16, April 24, 2009 issue of the Florida Administrative Weekly.

The changes are being made in response to comments received from the Joint Administrative Procedures Committee. The changes are as follows:

SUMMARY OF STATEMENT OF ESTIMATED REGULATORY COSTS: A Statement of Estimated Regulatory Costs has been prepared. Approximately 101 notices of non-compliance will be issued for barbers, restricted barbers, and barber assistants not having their current license laminated within a 12 month period after the rule became effective. The following reflects the number of notices of non-compliance that were issued to barbers for minor violations for the last Fiscal Years:

Fiscal Year 2005 to 2006, 230 notices of non-compliance was issued;

Fiscal Year 2006 to 2007, 191 notices of non-compliance was issued and;

Fiscal Year 2007 to 2008, 251 notices of non-compliance was issued.

The number of barbers who failed to comply with the new lamination requirement, pursuant to Rule 61G3-19.009, F.A.C., which became effective July 1, 2008, is expected to decrease after the first year as barbers become more familiar with the new requirement. The Board determined the proposed change to the rule is not expected to have an impact on small businesses unless a citation is issued. If a citation is issued the fine will be $50.00 to $250.00 per violation, and costs.

THE PERSON TO BE CONTACTED REGARDING THE PROPOSED RULE IS: Robyn Barineau, Executive Director, 1940 North Monroe Street Tallahassee, Florida 32399-0750
