Hello All,

Attached are the rules I filed yesterday.  The attachment includes the
filing document, the public notice and a copy of each rule.  The "Joe the
Plumber" rules are included as new rules.  The state working group released
them in late March with a request to have the rules filed by June 30, 2010.
These rules are based on the state working group's templates with
modification to meet the needs of the board.

 

Please let me know if you see anything of concern.

 

The Public Hearing is scheduled for May 11, 2010 at 2:00 p.m. in the board's
office as noted in the Notice of Public Hearing filed with the rules.

 

Here is a short summary of the proposed changes:
