Minnesota Rules: Amendments and Additions NOTICE: How to Follow
State Agency Rulemaking in the State Register
The S'tate Register is the official source, and only complete
listing, lOr all state agency rulcmaking in its various singes.
State agencies arc required to publish notice of their rulcmaking
uction in the Stale Register. Published every Monday, lhc S~a/e
Register makes it easy to follow and participate in the important
rulcmaking process. Approximately 80 state agencies have the
authority to issue rules. Each agency is assigned specific
l\1innl'sot;i Ruic chapter numbers. Every odd-numbered year the
l\:1i11uesotll Ruks nrc published. Supplements arc published to
update this set of rules. Generally speaking, proposed and lldoptcd
exempt rules <lo not appear in this set bccnusc of their
short-term nature, but arc published in the .':.'tale
Register.
An agency must first solicit Commrnts on Planned Ruh~s or Comments
011 Planned Ruh- Amendments from the public on the sul~jcct matter
of a possible rulemaking proposal under active consideration within
the agency (A1i11neso1a s:tatutes ** 14.101). It does this by
publishing a notice in the State Register al lcnst 60 days before
publication of a notice lo adopt or a notice of hearing, or wi!hin
60 days of the effective date or any new statutory grant of
required rulcmaking
\:Vhen rules arc first drafted, stale agencies pub Iish them as
Proposed Rules, along with a notice or hearing, or a notice of
intent to adopt rules without a hearing in the case or
noncontroversial rules. This notice asks for comment on !he rules
as proposed. Proposed emergency rules, and withdrawn propo:;c<l
rules, arc also published in the State Register. Afler proposed
rules have gone through the comment period, and have been rewritten
into their final form, they again appear in the State Register as
Adopted Hules. These final adopted rules arc not printed in their
entirety, but only the changes made since their publication as
Proposed Rules. To sec the full rule, as adopted and in effect, a
person simply needs two issues of the State Register, the issue the
rule appeared m as proposed, and la!er as adopted.
The ,)'tale l?egister foatures partial and cumulative listings of
rules in this section on the following schedule: issues # 1-13
inclusive; issues 1114-25 inclusive (issue f/26 cumulative for
issues ll!-26); issues #27-38 inclusive (issue 1139, cumulative for
issues fll-39); issues f/40-52 inclusive, with final index (fll-52,
or 53 in some years). /\n annual subject matter index for rules was
separately printed usually in August, but starting wilh Voh1mc 19
now appears in the final issue of e-ach volume. For copies or
subscriptions to the State Registei; contact Minnesota's Bookstore,
