STATE OF INDIANA
EXECUTIVE DEPARTMENT
INDIANAPOLIS
FOR: POSTPONEMENT OF THE DATE OF EXPIRATION OF RULES UNTIL ONE YEAR AFTER DATE SPECIFIED IN IND. CODE 4-22-2.5
TO ALL WHOM THESE PRESENTS MAY COME, GREETINGS.
WHEREAS, Ind. Code § 4-22-2.5-2 provides that "an administrative rule adopted under
IC 4-22-2 expires January 1 of the seventh year after the year in which the rule takes effect, unless the rule contains an earlier expiration date;"
WHEREAS, Ind. Code § 4-22-2.5-5 provides that "if a rule is not readopted before the expiration date for the rule and the governor finds that the failure to readopt the rule causes an emergency to exist, the governor may, by executive order issued before the rule's expiration date, postpone the expiration date of the rule until a date that is one (1) year after the date specified in [Ind. Code § 4-22-2.5-2]."
NOW, THEREFORE, I, Michael R. Pence, by virtue of the authority vested in me as Governor of the State of Indiana, do hereby find and order that:
1. The Fire Prevention and Building Safety Commission submitted a request for an extension of one (1) year for the following rule, as designated by the citation to the Indiana Administrative Code:
2. The rules, cited in paragraph one (1) of this Executive Order, are set to expire on January 1, 2017. The rules, cited in paragraph one (1) of this Executive Order, were not readopted before the expiration date of the rules. The failure to readopt the rules cited in paragraph one (1) of this Executive Order causes an emergency to exist and creates a danger to commercial structures since they will not have energy compliance rules in place. The expiration date of the rules cited in paragraph one (1) of this Executive Order shall be extended until January 1, 2018.
IN TESTIMONY WHEREOF, I, Michael R. Pence, have hereunto set my hand and caused to be affixed the Great Seal of the State of Indiana on this 28th day of December 2016.
Michael R. Pence
Governor of Indiana
