SCS SB 1100 -- PUBLICATION OF ADMINISTRATIVE RULES

This bill allows the Secretary of State to prescribe the format
and medium for publication of the Missouri Register; the Code of
State Regulations; and all rules, notices of proposed rulemaking,
and orders of rulemaking.

Under current law, new language in notices of proposed rulemaking
may either be underlined or printed in boldface type.  The bill
eliminates that option and requires new language to be printed in
boldface type.

Rules, regulations, standards, and guidelines of any agency of
the United States or a nationally or state-recognized
organization or association may be incorporated by reference in
agency rules by state agencies without publishing the information
in full.  The reference must be sufficient to determine where to
obtain copies of the referenced material.  A full copy of the
rule, regulation, standard, or guideline must be maintained by
the agency referencing it and must be available for public
inspection and copying at no more than the actual cost of
reproduction.
