1In 2009, permanent amendments were incorrectly promulgated as amendments to this section number (310:661-6-7) instead of 310:661-6-5, as intended [see 26 Ok Reg 2042, effective 6-25-09]. This error was editorially corrected, and the amendments were codified as amendments to the correct number (310:661-6-5).
