Re: Amends 75 IAC 6 regarding auto dealers, manufacturers, converter manufacturers, automobile auctions, transfer dealers, automotive mobility dealers, and dealer license plates

On behalf of the Auto Dealer Services Division of the Indiana Secretary of State, I am submitting this notice to the Publisher of the Indiana Register and Indiana Administrative Code in compliance with IC 4-22-2-25, which requires that a notice be sent to the Publisher if a rule will not be approved or deemed approved by the Governor within one year of publication of the Notice of Intent to Adopt a Rule. This notice is submitted to the Publisher before the two hundred fiftieth day following the publication of the Notice of Intent to Adopt a Rule.

The Notice of Intent to Adopt a Rule was published in the Indiana Register on September 28, 2016 (DIN: 20160928-IR-075160435NIA).

Due to the amount of time it took to obtain the approval required by Executive Order No. 2-89, the secretary of state's office may not be able to complete the rulemaking process by September 28, 2017. Approval or deemed approval by the Governor is expected not later than December 31, 2017.

This notice is being submitted in a timely manner. May 31, 2017, is the two hundred forty-fifth day after publication of the Notice of Intent to Adopt a Rule.
