Bill summary

Senate committee substitute makes the following changes to the 4th edition.

Amends GS 150B-21.6(4) to allow an agency to incorporate all or part of a code, standard, or regulation adopted by the federal government in a rule without repeating the text of the referenced material, if the agency establishes a procedure by which any change by the federal government is reviewed and approved by the agency within 120 days of the change, instead of the previous edition's 30-day window.

Adds a new provision in Section 4.3 to the act to provide an effective date of January 1, 2017, for Section 4.3(b) that repeals GS 113A-112, which provided for planning grants under the Coastal Area Management Act.
