The following table lists proposed emergency rulemaking actions that have been submitted to OAL and are currently under review. If you would like copies of documents specific to any emergency rulemaking, you should request the documents from the contact person for the agency as listed in the table below.
Unless the emergency situation clearly poses such an immediate, serious harm that delaying action to allow public comment would be inconsistent with the public interest, OAL must allow five calendar days for public comments after posting a notice of the filing of a proposed emergency regulation on this website. For emergency regulations promulgated by the Department of Corrections and Rehabilitation pursuant to Penal Code section 5058.3, OAL shall allow 10 calendar days for public comments. Unless otherwise indicated below, notice of the filing of a proposed emergency rulemaking is posted on this site the day the emergency action is filed with OAL.
Questions concerning the emergency regulations should be directed to the rulemaking agency’s contact person. For questions about the emergency regulation process, see the Emergency Rulemaking Process page or contact the OAL Reference Attorney at (916) 323-6815 or staff@oal.ca.gov. If you wish to make comments on a regulation listed here, please send them to the agency contact person and the OAL Reference Attorney at staff@oal.ca.gov.
