La. Admin. Code tit. 1 § I-501

Current through Register Vol. 50, No. 8, August 20, 2024

Section I-501 - Official Text of Published Documents

A. Asterisks

1. Where more than one Section of rules is being amended in a single document, and the Sections are not consecutive, then the omitted Sections are indicated by a row of three asterisks.

2. Where multiple Sections are being amended and the Sections are not consecutive but there are no omitted Sections of the text, do not insert asterisks. Example: §103 both being amended in a single amendment package would not have asterisks between them if no §104 exists.

3. Amending Entire Section. Asterisks may not be used in place of any material not needing revision when an entire Chapter or other body of the rule subdivision is being amended. All language intended to be part of the new Chapter must be included.

4. Amending Parts of a Section. When a designated subdivision of a Section is being amended, a row of three asterisks is inserted to indicate any omitted subdivisions of the Section, both before and after the amended portion. Any introductory language to a designated subdivision must be included in the text.

B. The text of any document, required or authorized to be published under this Title, shall from the date of such publication be the only valid and enforceable text of such document regardless of any discrepancy between such official text and the agency text of such document. Thereafter any amendment to such document shall be drawn as an amendment to the official text thereof.
