BILL SUMMARY DETAILS

Florida League of Cities

Petroleum Fuel Measuring Devices (Watch)

CS/CS/SB 430 (Rodriguez) and CS/HB 991 (Busatta Cabrera) preempt the regulation of petroleum fuel measuring devices to the Florida Department of Agriculture and Consumer Services. Current law provides for the regulation of these devices at wholesale and retail establishments by the Department, which includes measures to restrict unauthorized access of customer payment card information. The bills prohibit a state attorney from using Section 525.16, Florida Statutes, to enforce Department rules adopted pursuant to current law. (O’Hara)
