RE: LSA Document #12-51 – Amends 675 IAC 28-1-2 to update to the 2010 edition of the NFPA 10, National Fire Protection Association Standard for Portable Fire Extinguishers and make conforming changes. Repeals 675 IAC 22-2.2-11, 675 IAC 28- 1-14, and 675 IAC 28-1-20. Effective 30 days after filing with the Publisher.

Dear Senator Young:

On behalf of the Fire Prevention and Building Safety Commission (Commission), I am submitting this notice to the Administrative Rules Oversight Committee in compliance with IC 4-22-2-25, because the Commission has determined that the promulgation of the captioned rule may not be completed within one year after publication of the Notice of Intent to Adopt a Rule. The Commission published its Notice of Intent to Adopt a Rule for LSA Document #12-51 on January 25, 2012, at DIN: 20120125-IR-675120051NIA. The rule is updating the NFPA 10 Standard for the first time in more than 6 years and the evaluation of the fiscal impact is taking an extended period of time, longer than the Commission anticipated. In order to ensure that the fiscal impact is accurately evaluated, the Commission expects that the rule will be approved by the Governor not later than June 30, 2013.

This notice setting forth the expected date of approval of LSA Document #12-51 as June 30, 2013, is being submitted in a timely manner. October 1, 2012, is the two hundred fiftieth day after publication of the Notice of Intent to Adopt a Rule.
