NOTICE IS HEREBY GIVEN that on September 21, 2010, the Criminal Justice Standards and Training Commission, received a petition for a waiver of paragraphs 11B-35.001(3)(a), (b), and 11B-35.0021(6)(a), F.A.C., by Santa Fe Community College. The Petitioner wishes to waive the requirement in the rule that all aspects of firearms instructor certification be in place prior to instructors instructing firearms courses. Petitioner specifically requests a waiver of these requirements for Instructor Sgt. Terrence Stevens for correctional basic recruit firearms courses taught on April 28, 2010, May 4, 2010 and May 6, 2010. Petitioner states the Sgt. Stevens met all the requirements for teaching the firearms courses at issue, but had not yet been approved by the CJSTC’s field representative and entered into the CJSTC instructor database prior to instructing these courses. Instructor Stevens was subsequently approved and entered into the database on July 22, 2010.
