Technical College System Board
Finding of Emergency
The Wisconsin Technical College System Board finds that an emergency exists and that an emergency rule is necessary for the immediate preservation of the public peace, health, safety or welfare. A statement of the facts constituting an emergency is:
In May 2010, the Wisconsin C.O.R.E. Jobs Act provided an additional $1 million GPR for the training program grants authorized in Wis. Stats. §§
20.292 (1) (eh) and
38.41. These funds were provided to address a critical need of Wisconsin employers for skills training and education necessary to protect the state's economic vitality and health, with a special emphasis on advanced manufacturing and welding.
The WTCS Board is required to award these funds by June 30, 2011, the end of the current 2009-11 biennium. In addition, s.
TCS 17.06 (1), Wis. Adm. Code, requires that district boards or employers receiving skills training or education under the grant shall contribute matching funds, other than in-kind matching funds, equal to at least 25% of total approved project costs.
Due to the sustained decline in economic conditions and reduction in business revenues, technical college districts report that employers are withdrawing participation in approved training grants because of an inability to fund the 25% match. Therefore, to ensure that business and incumbent workers in need of skills training and other education may access these services and that appropriated funds are distributed to technical college districts for this purpose before the end of the fiscal year, emergency administrative rules eliminating the 25% match requirement must be established immediately.

Transportation
Finding of Emergency
The Department of Transportation finds that an emergency exists and that an emergency rule is necessary for the immediate preservation of the public health and welfare. A statement of the facts constituting the emergency is the requirements of the mandatory insurance laws in Chapter
344, Stats., as created by
2009 Wis. Act 28, contain exceptions to furnishing proof of a motor vehicle liability insurance policy. This emergency rule defines the administration of those exceptions. These mandatory insurance requirements, and the exceptions, are effective June 1, 2010, thereby necessitating an emergency rule being put into place until the effective date of the permanent rule. Clarification of the mechanism to be used to qualify for an exception under the new statute will be useful to persons wishing to file for an exception. Persons whose religious beliefs preclude them from buying insurance will benefit from this rule making.

Finding of Emergency

The statute which provides for the regulation of traveling sales crews became effective on April 1, 2010. The Department has completed its work on the proposed administrative rule which implements the statute, and submitted the proposed rule in final form for legislative review on April 13, 2010. Putting the provisions of the proposed rule into effect during the legislative review period will allow the Department to take any enforcement action that might be needed if there are complaints during this period about the operation of traveling sales crews without the permits required by statute.
