8. Abnormal levels of organic acids in the blood (organic acidemia), urine (organic aciduria), and tissues can be toxic and can cause serious health problems. A baby affected with an OA is usually well at birth and for the first few days of life. The usual clinical presentation is that of toxic encephalopathy and includes vomiting, poor feeding, neurologic symptoms such as seizures and abnormal tone, and lethargy progressing to coma. Outcome is improved by diagnosis and treatment in the first ten days of life.
9. Propionic acidemia and methylmalonic acidemia are two types of organic acidemias. In propionic academia and methylmalonic acidemia, the body is unable to process certain parts of proteins and lipids (fats) properly. In most cases, the features of propionic acidemia become apparent within a few days after birth. Propionic acidemia affects about 1 in 100,000 people in the United States. The effects of methylmalonic acidemia, which usually appear in early infancy, vary from mild to life-threatening. Without treatment, this disorder can lead to coma and death in some cases. This condition occurs in an estimated 1 in 50,000 to 100,000 people.
10. Though OA was determined to have met the criteria under s.
DHS 115.06 for being added to the list of congenital and metabolic disorders for which WSLH must test the blood samples of newborns, the conditions were inadvertently omitted from the list of conditions in s.
DHS 115.04 during subsequent revisions.
11. The process for promulgating permanent rules may take 24 months to complete, or longer if the department is unable to submit the permanent rules to the legislature prior to its last general business floor period in 2016.

Finding of Emergency — Exemption
2013 Wisconsin Act 20, the 2013-15 state budget, included the following nonstatutory language: The department of natural resources may promulgate emergency rules under section
227.24 of the statutes implementing sections
29.739 and
29.740 of the statutes, as created by this act. Notwithstanding section
227.24 (1) (c) and
(2) of the statutes, emergency rules promulgated for walleye population maintenance and enhancement grants remain in effect until June 30, 2016, or the date on which permanent rules take effect, whichever is sooner. Notwithstanding section
227.24 (1) (a) and
(3) of the statutes, the department is not required to provide evidence that promulgating this rule as an emergency rule is necessary for the preservation of the public peace, health, safety, or welfare and is not required to provide a finding of emergency for a rule promulgated under this subsection.

Finding of Emergency
Pursuant to s.
227.24, Stats., the department finds that an emergency exists and that this rule is necessary for the immediate preservation of the public peace, health, safety, or welfare. The welfare of state-licensed commercial fishers, tribal commercial fishers, recreational anglers, and associated businesses is threatened by a decline in the lake trout population in the Apostle Islands vicinity of Lake Superior. The continued, persistent decline in lake trout population abundances and predicted further declines necessitate the current reductions in order to ensure a sustainable lake trout fishery over the long-term. Lake trout harvest limits were negotiated in October 2013 among the Department of Natural Resources and the Red Cliff and Bad River Bands of Lake Superior Chippewa and those changes must be ordered through administrative code. This emergency rule is needed to preserve the public welfare.

Register No. 694, on October 14, 2013, and approved by the Natural Resources Board on December 11, 2013.
Finding of Emergency
The emergency rule procedure, pursuant to s.
227.24, Stats., is necessary and justified to preserve the public welfare and interest in ensuring a sustainable population of Blanding's turtles. The Blanding's turtle is proposed for delisting from the State's Threatened Species list per administrative rule ER-27-11, which is expected to take effect as early as December 2013. Although the Blanding's turtle no longer meets the scientific criteria for listing, the Department feels that the population is nonetheless too vulnerable to survive the threat of harvest and collection, and believes emergency rules are needed to ensure a proper recovery before these activities are permitted.
All turtles not listed as threatened or endangered in ch.
NR 27 or as otherwise specified have a 135-day open season (July 15-November 30) during which members of the public may capture and possess up to 5 individuals [s.
NR 19.275 (4),
21.13 (4) and
22.13 (4)] per day. Permanent rule-making to protect Blanding's turtles from this harvest will not go into effect until after the 2014 open season for turtles is already underway. An emergency rule is therefore necessary to prevent the harvest and possession of Blanding's turtles during the 2014 open season until the permanent rule goes into effect.
The anticipated impact of collection and harvest to Blanding's turtle conservation and recovery in the state necessitates putting the emergency rule into effect during the 2014 open season for turtles while the agency complies with the permanent rule-making procedures.
