SFBC International to phase out operations in Florida

By Elaine Rigoli

Tampa, Fla., May 18 - SFBC International, Inc. will cease all of its operations in Florida, including its Miami and Ft. Myers facilities.

In addition, the company announced that the Miami-Dade County Unsafe Structures Board failed to issue an extension for reviewing the plans submitted by the company related to its planned structural improvements to the Miami facility.

The Miami-Dade County Unsafe Structures Board gave the company 60 days from May 17 to file for a permit to demolish the Miami facility.

However, the company said it intends to appeal this ruling to the Florida courts and potentially file an injunction to stay these proceedings to facilitate an orderly shut down of operations and complete the transition of any studies to its Canadian facilities, where possible.

SFBC International is a drug-development services company located in Princeton, N.J.
