PURPOSE AND EFFECT: Chapter 64E-26, F.A.C., is a dated rule that may not be consistent in certain areas with the Florida Building Code and national accreditation standards for correctional facilities. In addition, some standards may no longer be valid or necessary. The purpose of the proposed amendments and review will be to update the rule to better reflect more current environmental health standards and program requirements, and to ensure the necessity or validity of other existing requirements in the rule. The effect will be to have a more modern rule that minimizes adverse conflict with other more recent standards.
SUBJECT AREA TO BE ADDRESSED: Rules 64E-26.001 through 64E-26.013, F.A.C., in the rule will be addressed.
SPECIFIC AUTHORITY: 381.006 FS.
LAW IMPLEMENTED: 381.006(6) FS.
