The proposed draft rules would also create 68B-20.004, FAC (Exception to Statewide Spearing Prohibitions) to allow the Executive Director or his designee to issue permits to authorized events to allow the harvest lionfish and other non-native invasive species by spearfishing in areas where spearing is prohibited. In addition, 68B-20.003, FAC (Spearing, Statewide Regulation; Prohibition Against Powerheads, Bangsticks, and Rebreathers; Repeal of Certain Special Acts) would be modified to create a reference to the new rule providing an exception to the statewide spearing prohibitions.
