(1) Notice documents. Notice documents announce an agency's intention to adopt rules or the agency's compliance with certain other steps in the rulemaking process. Notice documents are published in the Register but are not included in the Code. [See Part 5 of this Subchapter (relating to notice documents)]

(2) Rule documents. Rule documents announce final adoption of permanent rules [75:250.3(7); 75:308.1(A)], adoption of emergency or preemptive rules [75:253; 75:250.6], or legislative adoption of expedited repeals of rules [75:303a]. [See also Part 3 of this Subchapter (relating to rule documents)]
(A) Permanent, preemptive rules; expedited repeals.
