H.B. 63 recodifies almost all of Title 63. The affected chapters are reassigned to new titles ranging from 63G to 63M. H.B. 63 goes into effect on May 5, 2008.
Last summer, the Division informed agencies that H.B. 63 would have a major impact on rules. A review of the rules in effect on January 1, 2008, indicates that 471 administrative rules reference Title 63. Each agency is responsible for correcting citations in its rules. To correct the citations, agencies may file nonsubstantive changes. The nonsubstantive changes should be filed before May 1 so that they can go into effect on May 5, 2008 — at the same time the bill goes into effect.
The Division has prepared a list of the rules in effect on January 1, 2008, that, to the best of our knowledge, are affected by H.B. 63. Each agency should review its rules, taking into account changes made effective since January 1, to ensure that all references are updated. The list is available in PDF format at http://www.rules.utah.gov/law/2008Title63ListofAffectedRules.pdf.
