However, after the permanent amendments were published, the agency reported that the proposed amendments had never been approved by the Governor and should not have been filed for publication in the Register. Because emergency rules effective on or before the first day of a legislative session can only be effective through July 14 following that session (if not already superseded by permanent rules), and because the issuing agency reported that the permanent amendments intended to supersede these emergency amendments should not have been promulgated, the emergency action is cited with a 7-14-02 expiration date. Upon expiration of an emergency action, the last prior permanent text is reinstated. Therefore, on 7-15-02, the text of Section 435:15-11-2 reverted back to the permanent text that became effective 5-11-01 (as last published in the 2001 Edition of the OAC), and remained as such until amended again by emergency action on 10-1-02.
