Commerce
Licenses, Certifications and Registrations, Ch. Comm 5
Revises Chapter Comm 5, relating to the licensing and registration of individuals who install or alter thermal insulation for heating, ventilating, cooling, plumbing or refrigeration systems. Effective 2-1-11.
Summary of Final Regulatory Flexibility Analysis
Pursuant to s. 227.19 (3m), Stats., the Department of Commerce has determined that the proposed rules to amend chapter Comm 5 will not have a significant impact on a substantial number of small businesses. The proposed rules implement the mandates imposed by 2009 Wisconsin Act 16 regarding the credentialing of thermal insulators. The Act affects individuals involved in the installation, alteration and maintenance of thermal insulation for heating, ventilating, cooling, plumbing or refrigeration systems. The department does not believe the rules will increase the effect on small businesses more than that imposed by the Act.

Summary of Final Regulatory Flexibility Analysis
The rule affects small businesses as defined in s. 227.114 (1), Stats., but does not have a significant economic impact on a substantial number of small businesses.
