Notice of Rule Making Without Public Hearing
Public Instruction
The State Superintendent of Public Instruction proposes to repeal ss.
PI 32.01 (4) (Note), 32.03 (2) (intro) (Note), (4) (a) (Note), and 32.05; and amend ss.
PI 32.01(4) and
32.03 (2) (intro) and
(4) (a), relating to grants for alcohol and other drug abuse programs.
The rules are being adopted under s.
227.16 (2) (e), Stats., which provides that rulemaking does not need to be preceded by notice and public hearing if the proposed rule and fiscal estimate are published in the notice section of the Administrative Register and the required petition is not received by the agency within 30 days after publication of the notice.
Place Where Comments are to be Submitted and Deadline for Submission
As provided in s.
227.16 (2) (e), Stats., a public hearing will not be held for this rule change unless the required petition is received by the Department.

Plain language analysis
First, the proposed rule change would realign ch.
PI 32 with the Wisconsin Statutes.
2011 Wisconsin Act 32 deleted ss.
20.255 (2) (dm) and
115.361, Stats. Thus, this rule change would eliminate the references to those statutory sections in the rule.
Second, this rule change would eliminate s.
PI 32.05, which provides a detailed description for the Alcohol and Other Drug Abuse (AODA) Program Advisory Council required under s.
115.36 (2) (e), Stats. The requirements in s.
PI 32.05 are no longer needed because
2011 Wisconsin Act 32 deleted one of the AODA appropriations (s.
20.255 (2) (dm), Stats.), which had the majority of the AODA grant funds. Given the reduced grant appropriations, the DPI believes that the size of the AODA Council can be reduced accordingly. Additionally, the description of the AODA Council is no longer needed in rule because, given the constantly changing amount of AODA funding, DPI needs the flexibility to adjust the Council's structure quickly through policy instead of the rulemaking process.

Analysis and supporting documents used to determine effect on small business or in preparation of economic impact report
If the size of the AODA Council is reduced, DPI will have to expend fewer resources staffing the AODA Council.
Anticipated Costs Incurred by Private Sector
There is not expected to be a cost to the private sector.
Effect on Small Business
The proposed rules will have no economic impact on small businesses, as defined in s.
