NOTICE OF AMENDMENT AND ADOPTION

 

TO: All Concerned Persons

            2. On April 23, 2018, a public hearing was held on the proposed amendment and adoption of the above-stated rules in Helena. One comment was received by the April 27, 2018 deadline.

 

            3. The board has thoroughly considered the comment received. A summary of the comment and the board response is as follows:

 

COMMENT 1: One commenter asked when the board will begin enforcing the new requirement in ARM 24.155.901 to display the licensee's license at the principal place of business. The commenter suggested the board allow licensees adequate time to come into compliance.

 

RESPONSE 1: All rules in this notice will be effective on May 26, 2018, the day following the adoption notice's publication date. The board decided not to enforce this rule until September 1, 2018, to allow licensees time to come into compliance and to coincide with the renewal period.
