(1)
Amended Sections.
(A) Prepare amendatory language in Sections,
including Section taglines, as follows:
(i)
Underscore new language.
(ii)
Strikeout existing language and spaces that are being deleted [see
655:10-1-2
(definition of "strikeout")].
(iii)
If replacing deleted text with new text, type new language following the
language which it replaces.
(iv) Do
not strikeout part of a word or number. Strikeout the entire word or number
being replaced, and type and underscore the complete new word(s) or number(s).
For example, to change the word "requirements" to "requirement," strikeout the
word "requirements" and underscore the word "requirement."
(B) If amending and renumbering a Section,
prepare the text pursuant to
655:10-5-8.
(2)
Amended Appendices
(revocation and reenactment).
(A) Amend
Appendices by revoking and reenacting. To revoke and reenact an Appendix,
revoke the existing Appendix and simultaneously reenact a new Appendix (on the
same regulatory topic) that completely replaces the revoked Appendix, as
follows:
(i) Identify the revoked Appendix by
typing the word [REVOKED] approximately two spaces following the centered
Appendix heading (e.g., APPENDIX K. ZONING DISTRICTS [REVOKED]).
Do not include the text of the revoked Appendix.
(ii) Following the information in (A) of this
paragraph, identify the reenacted Appendix by typing the word [NEW]
approximately two spaces following the centered Appendix heading (e.g.,
APPENDIX K. ZONING DISTRICTS [NEW]). Begin the contents of the
Appendix approximately two spaces below the heading.
(B) If amending and renumbering an Appendix,
prepare pursuant to
655:10-5-8.
(b) Amended Part, Subchapter, Chapter headings. When amending the heading of a Part, Subchapter, or Chapter, agencies should use strikeouts and underscoring, as described in (a)(1)(A) and (B) of this Section to identify changes to the existing heading.
