Review of Rules Pursuant to SB 14-063
Senate Bill 14-063 requires each Principal Department to conduct a review of its rules to assess the
continuing need for, and the appropriateness and cost effectiveness of, its rules to determine if they
should be continued in their current form, modified, or repealed. See 24-4-103.3, C.R. S. The bill sets
forth a list of considerations in conducting the review, including:
1. Whether the rule is necessary;
2. Whether the rule overlaps or duplicates other rules of the agency or with other federal, state,
or local government rules;
3. Whether the rule is written in plain language and is easy to understand;
4. Whether the rule has achieved the desired intent and whether more or less regulation is
necessary;
5. Whether the rule can be amended to give more flexibility, reduce regulatory burdens, or
reduce unnecessary paperwork or steps while maintaining its benefits;
6. Whether the rule is implemented in an efficient and effective manner, including the
requirements for the issuance of permits and licenses;
7. Whether a cost-benefit analysis was performed by the applicable rule making agency or
official in the principal department pursuant to Section 24-4-103 (2.5); and
8. Whether the rule is adequate for the protection of the safety, health, and welfare of the state
or its residents.
The attached table summarizes the Department of Natural Resources’ schedule to review its rules
pursuant to SB 14-063 over the three-year period from January 1, 2015 through December 31, 2017. Each
of the rulemaking proceedings described below will include a public-participation process.
If you have quesitons about this review schedule or would like to provide input on the Department’s
reviews of its rules, please contact DNR Deputy Director Bob Randall, at 303-866-3311 or
[email protected].
