NOTICE TO STATE AGENCIES:

the

now preparing the

publication,

and

rather than the

CO~~d~’

BocU~d

being

used

that

production,

several

procedures

regarding

the

technical

clean-up

and

amendment ofyourrulemakings will be

affected.

First, JCAR will no longer be able to rectify Code format and other technical

problems with your

rulemakings

prior to their first publication.

Please be especially careful that the background text

that comes from your database

an accurate depiction of the rule as

currently on

file and

that

you

show all

changes through strikes

and underlining as required by statute.

We will no

longer

be able to catch those problems for you prior to

publication.

Any errors in the published version

will need to

corrected later in the rulemaking process, using

either the First Notice Changes

document or through the JCAR Agreement document (Second Notice Changes).

Second, JCAR

will be creating the line-numbered First Notice version ofthe rulemaking text,

which your First Notice Changes

are drafted, from the version of your rulemaking published in

the Illinois Register.

We will be able to

differ from that publication only in such things

as line

spacing, paragraph alignment, etc., which will be made consistent with the IAC database.

If any

differences

occur

between

the

hardcopy

materials

you

filed

with

the

SOS

and

the

version

published in

the

First

Notice version

will reflect the Register.

Otherwise,

there

would be no paper trail for the public to follow in

tracking changes in the rulemaking throughout

its adoption process.

You will be

receiving from JCAR

a clean

First Notice version of the rulemaking to use

in your

amendment drafting and a mark-up that shows things JCAR has noted, during its preparation of

the

First

Notice version,

that need

corrected.

These will

include

correction of errors that

were

created

the preparation

of the Register;

that need to be

made

throughout

the

process

about

any

substantive

concerns we may have

with

the rulemaking and

any additional technical corrections

we would suggest based on later,

more in

If,

with

for

you

not
