Iowa Admin. Code r. 871-41.2

Current through Register Vol. 47, No.14, January 8, 2025

Rule 871-41.2 - [Effective 1/29/2025] Procedural requirements

(1) The department should acknowledge a request upon receipt. Within 30 days after receipt of a request for waiver of an administrative rule, the agency verifies that the requester has provided a copy to anyone who is required to receive one by provision of law. The agency may also require the requester to send a copy of the request to other persons who would have an interest in the subject matter.

(2) The agency grants or denies a request for waiver of all or a portion of a rule as soon as practical. This will be done within 120 days of its receipt, unless requester agrees to a later date. However, if a waiver request has been filed in a contested case proceeding, the agency shall grant or deny the request no later than the time at which the final decision in that contested case is issued. Failure of the agency to grant or deny such a request within the required time period is a denial of that request by the agency. If the request for waiver relates to a time requirement of an administrative rule, the request must be received before the time specified in the rule has expired. Within seven days of its issuance, any response issued under this rule shall be transmitted, normally by depositing it in the mail, to the requester or the person to whom the response pertains and to any other person entitled to such notice by any provision of law.
