As part of the periodic review of rules required by state law, the board has made initial determinations on whether each rule is necessary or unnecessary. The board invites public comments on its initial determinations from September 3 to November 4, 2024. Following this public-comments period, the board will review all comments, decide whether to change the initial determination, and respond to the comments. Below are PDF and Excel versions of the initial determinations.

To submit a comment, please contact Dennis Seavers, Executive Director, by any of the methods below:

"Public comment" is defined by G.S. 150B-21.3A(a)(5) as a written objection to all or part of a rule. Additionally, pursuant to G.S. 150B-21.3A(c)(2), in order for the Rules Review Commission to determine whether the public comment has merit, the public comment must address the specific substance of the rule and address any of the standards of Commission review, as set forth in G.S. 150B-21.9(a).
