EmR1051 — Rule adopted to create
Chapter PI 46, relating to training requirements for individuals administering nonprescription and prescription drug products to pupils.
Finding of Emergency
The Department of Public Instruction finds an emergency exists and that a rule is necessary for the immediate preservation of the public welfare. A statement of the facts constituting the emergency is:
Section
118.29 (6), Stats., requires the department to approve training in administering nonprescription drug products and prescription drugs. The statute also specifies that no school bus driver, employee, or volunteer may administer a nonprescription drug product or prescription drug, use an epinephrine auto-injector, or administer glucagon unless he or she has received such training. Because the statutory requirement becomes effective March 1, 2011, administrative rules must be in place as soon as possible so that training programs can be established prior to the effective date of the statutes.

5. EmR1102 — Rule adopted creating
Chapters RL 200 to 202, relating to governing professional conduct of individuals licensed as sign language interpreters, and for the treatment of state resident licensure exemption requests.
Finding of Emergency
2009 Wisconsin Act 360 created laws regulating the practice of sign language interpreting, and became effective on December 1, 2010. Under the act, codified at s.
440.032, Stats., individuals practicing as sign language interpreters must now be licensed by the department, and must comply with a code of professional conduct to be promulgated by the department. The new law also provides for exemptions from the licensure requirement under certain circumstances, and requires the council to promulgate rules establishing the criteria and procedures for granting state resident exemptions. As s.
440.032, Stats., is already in effect, an emergency rule is necessary to implement the law pending promulgation of a similar permanent rule.

Regulation and Licensing —
Barbering and Cosmetology Examining Board
Finding of Emergency
The rule as currently promulgated fails to adequately protect the public to the extent that several provisions are underdeveloped, ambiguous or silent. As a result, inconsistent interpretations and contradictory information has led to significant confusion within the profession. Given that the rules require licensees to comply by March 31, 2011, the errors and omissions need to be addressed immediately so licensees can receive adequate training to provide safe and competent services to the public, and comply with the requirements for renewal of a license.
