Relating to Guidelines for the Promulgation of Administrative Rules
WHEREAS, 2011 Wisconsin
Act 21 reformed the administrative rulemaking process in Wisconsin in order to increase accountability, clarify agency regulatory authority, and evaluate the economic impact of all new and amended state administrative rules; and
WHEREAS, Wis. Stat. § 227.10(1) requires that each agency statement of policy and each interpretation of a statute adopted to govern its enforcement or administration of that statute shall be promulgated as a rule, and Wis. Stat. § 227.01(13) defines a rule as "a regulation, standard, statement of policy or general order of general application which has the effect of law and which is issued by an agency to implement, interpret or make specific legislation enforced or administered by the agency or to govern the organization or procedure of the agency;" and
S593
WHEREAS, Wis. Stat. § 227.10(2m) requires an explicit grant of authority under statute or administrative rule before a state agency can implement or enforce any standard, requirement, or threshold, including as a term or condition of any license issued by the agency; and
WHEREAS, Wis. Stat. §§ 227.11(2)(a)1. to 3. defines agency authority to promulgate administrative rules, specifically providing the following:
A statutory or nonstatutory provision containing a statement or declaration of legislative intent, purpose, findings, or policy does not confer rulemaking authority on the agency or augment the agency's rulemaking authority beyond the rulemaking authority that is explicitly conferred on the agency by the legislature.
A statutory provision describing the agency's general powers or duties does not confer rulemaking authority on the agency or augment the agency's rulemaking authority beyond the rulemaking authority that is explicitly conferred on the agency by the legislature.
A statutory provision containing a specific standard, requirement, or threshold does not confer on the agency the authority to promulgate, enforce, or administer a rule that contains a standard, requirement, or threshold that is more restrictive than the standard, requirement, or threshold contained in the statutory provision; and
WHEREAS, Wis. Stat. §§ 227.135(2), 227.24(1)(e)1d. requires the Governor to approve a statement of scope before an agency may proceed with rulemaking, Wis. Stat. § 227.185 requires the Governor to approve a final draft rule before it is submitted to the Legislature for review, and Wis. Stat. § 227.24(1)(e)1g. requires the Governor to approve an emergency rule before it is filed with the Legislative Reference Bureau and published in the official state newspaper; and
