FINDINGS (verbatim): "In written findings published on the date this emergency rule was filed with the Secretary of State's Office, Attorney General James Uthmeier has found that there is a need to schedule the above-mentioned substance in Schedule I, subsection 893.03(1)(a), F.S., on a temporary basis in order to curtail its abuse by Florida's children, young adults, and others. These circumstances present an imminent hazard to the public safety... The Legislature authorized the agency to adopt emergency rules to temporarily schedule substances in Schedule I, of section 893.03, F.S., pursuant to section 893.035(7), F.S."
