Section 454-4-001 - NEGOTIATED RULEMAKING GENERALLY

Universal Citation: 454 NE Admin Rules and Regs ch 4 ยง 001
Current through March 20, 2024

The purpose of this rule is to establish a framework for the conduct of negotiated rulemaking consistent with the Administrative Procedure Act and the Negotiated Rulemaking Act, Neb. Rev. Stat. §§ 84-921 through 84-932. The negotiated rulemaking process can be used by state agencies, whenever appropriate, to resolve controversial issues prior to the commencement of formal rulemaking. Negotiated rulemaking is not a substitute for the requirements of the Administrative Procedure Act, but may be used as a supplemental procedure to permit the direct participation of affected interests in the development of new rules or the amendment or repeal of existing rules. The negotiated rulemaking process also does not preclude other Department efforts or processes designed to reach consensus with affected or interested persons concerning the content of rules. A consensus agreement on a proposed rule reached by a negotiated rulemaking committee may be modified by the Department as a result of a subsequent formal rulemaking process.
