Administrative Rules Oversight Committee Notice
60 Day Requirement (IC 4-22-2-19)

RE: Establishment of rules for the One Call program


Dear Representative Pelath:

Pursuant to Indiana Code 8-1-26, as amended by P.L.62-2009, the Indiana Utility Regulatory Commission ("IURC" or "Commission") was charged with adopting rules under Ind. Code 4-22-2 to carry out the One Call program. The Commission has taken steps to begin the rulemaking process but will not be able to file the required Notice of Intent by September 1, 2009.

Prior to filing the Notice of Intent, the Commission plans on holding prerulemaking workshops with the interested parties in order to receive comments on the language of the proposed rule. In addition, the Director of Pipeline Safety and the Senior Commission Counsel have recently left the Commission. Both of these individuals were actively involved in the One Call rulemaking. Consequently, the Commission is unable to formally initiate the One Call rulemaking by September 1, 2009. The Commission intends on formally initiating the One Call rulemaking by January 1, 2010. We look forward to hearing from you and answering any questions you may have.

Thank you for your consideration of this matter.

Sincerely,

s/David E. Veleta

David E. Veleta
Assistant General Counsel
