31 Tex. Admin. Code § 29.24 - Pre-Certification Review of Draft Rules and Draft Rule Amendments
(a) Prior to the publication in the
Texas Register of a proposed rule or amendment to a rule
listed in §
29.11(b) of this
chapter (relating to Actions and Rules Subject to the Coastal Management
Program), an agency may seek pre-certification review by filing a Request for
Pre-certification Review with the CMP coordinator. The request shall include a
copy of the draft rule or draft rule amendment and any information the agency
wishes the commissioner to consider. This request shall allow the commissioner
a minimum of 30 days to review and comment on the draft rule or rule
amendment.
(b) The CMP coordinator
shall distribute copies of the Request for Pre-certification Review, including
all supporting information, to all committee members.
(c) The commissioner may review and comment
in writing within 30 days of the date the request was received by the CMP
coordinator, unless a longer time is provided in the agency's request. The
commissioner's comments should identify applicable CMP goals and policies and
potential inconsistencies with such goals and policies in the draft rule or
rule amendment. The commissioner may make recommendations to the agency on how
to correct any inconsistencies. The agency shall consider the commissioner's
comments and any comments from the committee members.
(d) Agencies are encouraged to seek
pre-certification review to maximize opportunities to coordinate agency rules,
facilitate effective and efficient implementation of the CMP, and to identify
and correct possible inconsistencies in the draft rule or draft rule amendment
prior to publication of the proposal in the Texas
Register.
