481—49.7(135R,10A) Waivers. Requests for waiver may be submitted to the department in accordance with 481—Chapter 6. Waivers may be granted by the director of the department when, in the director’s discretion, good and sufficient reasons underlying the need for a waiver have been established; no substantial risk to the health, safety, or welfare of patients is presented by approving the waiver; and alternate means are employed or compensating circumstances exist to justify the waiver. Any waiver granted is limited to the specific project under consideration and does not establish a precedent for similar acceptance in other cases.
