S T A T E O F N E W Y O R K ________________________________________________________________________ 5796 2009-2010 Regular Sessions I N S E N A T E June 5, 2009 ___________ Introduced by Sen. VALESKY -- read twice and ordered printed, and when printed to be committed to the Committee on Rules AN ACT to amend the state administrative procedure act, in relation to state mandates on local governments and detailing the benefits and costs of proposed rules and to repeal certain provisions of such act relating thereto THE PEOPLE OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK, REPRESENTED IN SENATE AND ASSEM- BLY, DO ENACT AS FOLLOWS: Section 1. The legislature finds that the rules promulgated by state agencies often have a substantial impact on the lives of the state's residents and the operations of local governments and businesses, and therefore should be adopted through a process that provides for the open and fully realized consideration of the potential costs and benefits of regulatory action. To this end, the statutes governing the rulemaking process should ensure that agency assessments of the costs and the bene- fits of proposed rules are accurate and comprehensive. S 2. Section 102 of the state administrative procedure act is amended by adding a new subdivision 15 to read as follows: 15. "LOCAL GOVERNMENT" MEANS ANY COUNTY, CITY, TOWN, VILLAGE, OR SCHOOL DISTRICT. S 3. Paragraph (b) of subdivision 4-a of section 202 of the state administrative procedure act, as added by chapter 335 of the laws of 1992, is amended to read as follows: (b) Each agency shall publish and make available to the public an assessment of public comment for a rule revised pursuant to this subdi- vision. Such assessment shall be based upon any written comments submit- ted to the agency and any comments presented at any public hearing held on the proposed rule by the agency. The assessment shall contain: (i) a summary and an analysis of the issues raised and significant alterna- tives suggested by any such comments; (ii) a statement of the reasons why any significant alternatives were not incorporated into the rule; EXPLANATION--Matter in ITALICS (underscored) is new; matter in brackets [ ] is old law to be omitted.
