Rule Making in Limbo

January 6th, 2011 by Mike Vasilinda

Governor Rick Scott’s first act was to freeze dozens of state rules that were in the process of being adopted. The rules range from regulating septic tanks in the Florida Keys to using all terrain vehicles on state lands. No criteria for reviewing the rules have been announced, which concerns some environmental groups. Today the Governor said the review would be conducted quickly.

“One of the things that I committed during the campaign was that we were going to look at these rules and see which ones are killing jobs” says Scott, who continued “The problem we have in this state is that we need more jobs, so that’s what I am focused on.

Another stalled rule would regulate pain clinics and seek to keep prescription drugs from getting into the hands of drug abusers.
