The Florida Department of Business and Professional Regulation (DBPR) is holding public stakeholder meetings throughout the state in order to gain input on implementing its mold licensing law.
By attending one of the meetings listed below, ACAC certificants can influence the development of regulations governing mold investigations and mold remediation that go into effect on June 1, 2010.
In particular, the DBPR is being urged to consider requiring independent, accredited certifications (such as those offered by ACAC) as prerequisites for licensing under the new law. Such a requirement would protect the public interest while enhancing the status of Council-certified professionals.
Please consider attending one of these stakeholder meetings and supporting the use of independent, accredited certifications:
