13-14-9.5-4. Readoption of Rules; Request for Readoption of Particular Rule

Sec. 4. (a) Except as provided in subsection (b), with respect to the rules subject to expiration under this chapter, the department or a board that has rulemaking authority under this title:
(1) may readopt one (1) or more of the rules under one (1) rule that lists all rules that are readopted by their titles and subtitles only; and
(2) shall publish a notice in the Indiana Register identifying:
(A) the rules, if any, that will be readopted; and
(B) the rules, if any, that will not be readopted.
A rule that has expired but is readopted under this subsection may not be removed from the Indiana Administrative Code.
(b) If a person submits to the department or a board that has rulemaking authority under this title a written request stating a basis for the request during the first comment period that a particular rule be readopted separately from the readoption rule described in subsection (a), the department or board must:
(1) consider readoption of that rule separately from the readoption rule described in subsection (a); and
(2) follow the procedure for adoption of administrative rules under IC 13-14-9 with respect to the rule.
(c) If the department or board does not receive a written request under subsection (b) regarding a rule within the first comment period, the agency may:
(1) submit the readoption rule for filing with the publisher under IC 4-22-2-35 and publish notice in the Indiana Register that the agency has readopted the rule; or
(2) for one (1) or more of the rules proposed to be readopted as part of the readoption rule described in subsection (a), elect the procedure for readoption under IC 13-14-9.
(d) If a person submits to the department or a board that has rulemaking authority under this title a written request stating a basis for the request during the first comment period that a particular rule that the department or board does not intend to readopt as part of the readoption rule described in subsection (a) be readopted, the department or board must:
(1) consider readoption of that rule separately from the readoption rule described in subsection (a); and
(2) follow the procedure for adoption of administrative rules under IC 13-14-9 with respect to the rule.
