Bill > HB821

This bill amends existing Kentucky Revised Statutes (KRS) sections related to transportation to ensure that administrative regulations, which are rules created by government agencies to implement laws, are developed and issued following the procedures outlined in KRS Chapter 13A. Specifically, it modifies KRS 174.080, which deals with the powers of the Transportation Cabinet's secretary to create regulations for carrying out duties and complying with federal transportation funding laws, and KRS 186.860, which allows the secretary or other authorized officials to negotiate agreements with other states, such as the "Nonresident Violator Compact" (an agreement for handling traffic violations by out-of-state drivers), and to create regulations for its administration. In essence, the bill mandates that any regulations created under these sections must adhere to the formal process established in KRS Chapter 13A for creating and publishing administrative rules.
