Comment Period | Ended on 7/27/2016 |
I strongly object to approval of these regulations without a requirement for owner consent for student performance of any task which ordinarily requires licensure. In the last round of public comments, 74 out of 94 paticipants said clearly that they were opposed unless full consent was required for all student practice. 28 explicitly said that a sign in the office saying “students working here” is unacceptable. Why is the public being ignored??? I request that the process begin again, with another comment period. And this time, pay attention to the public! These are OUR animals you are planning to let students treat.
