Reminder to Agencies -- Rules Explicitly Mandated by Legislation Passed in 2007 Must be Filed by 10/27/2007

H.B. 327 (2007) established a new rulemaking deadline. Now, an agency has 180 days from the effective date of legislation to file a rule that is explicitly mandated by the legislation.

  • For legislation effective 04/30/2007, mandated rules must be filed by 10/27/2007.
  • For legislation effective 07/01/2007, mandated rules must be filed by 12/28/2007.

If the agency cannot meet the deadline, it must schedule an appearance before the Administrative Rules Review Committee to explain the delay. Mr. Art Hunsaker, analyst assigned to the Administrative Rules Review Committee, may be reached at 538-1032.

Agencies may contact Ken Hansen (801-538-3777) with questions about H.B. 327.
