Proposed Rule(s)

The Department is required to review all of its rules once a decade and determine if they are necessary or unnecessary. After that determination, the Department works with the Rules Review Commission to set deadlines by which it must readopt, amend, or repeal all rules in each chapter of its rules. Of course, there may also be times during the coming decade, when the Department adopts, amends, or repeals other rules. This section of our website includes all current rulemakings of the Department whether part of the decadal review process or unrelated rulemakings.

The decadal schedule requires that we readopt rules no later than the dates shown for each chapter:
