RULEMAKING NOTICE

Please find attached the following Notice of Proposed Rulemaking Hearing and Statement of Need and Fiscal Impact.
Rule Caption: Removes "Thirty-Day Letter" requirement from investigation process.
Rule Summary: The proposed amendment modifies the Board's investigation process by eliminating the "Thirty-Day Letter" step required prior to commencing procedures for imposing sanctions. Currently, subsequent to the completion of an investigation and prior to issuing a notice of proposed action, the Board must first issue a letter specifying allegations and requiring a response from the respondent within 30 days.  This rule amendment would remove that requirement.
The agency requests public comment on whether the options should be considered for achieving the rule's substantive goals while reducing negative economic impact of the rule on business.  Please email your comments to laree.felton at state.or.us<mailto:laree.felton at state.or.us> or mail them to the Board's office at 3218 Pringle Road SE, Ste. 130, Salem, OR 97302.  All comments must be received no later than 5:00 p.m. on February 22, 2017.  A public hearing will be held at 10 a.m. on February, 2016 at 3218 Pringle Road SE, Salem, OR 97302.
Website: The above documents, along with rule text (for the proposed rules, new language underlined, deleted language with strike-through), are available at www.oregon.gov/OBPE<http://www.oregon.gov/OBPE> under "Headlines."
