Yes, a cryptic title. But it makes more sense once you realize that I’m talking about a set of fields in the “Rule Information” box of the proposed amendment form, the change in proposed rule form, and the nonsubstantive change form. The fields are right below the “Utah Admin. Code ref. (R no.)” fields.
The “Changed to Admin. Code Ref. (R. no)” are optional fields (the “Utah Admin. Code ref. (R no.)” fields are not, but that’s another story). They are only to be used in certain very specific circumstances.
Because you crave knowledge, you ask “What are the circumstances when I can use these fields?” I’m glad you asked. These fields are only used when:
- An agency’s title number has changed because the agency is being moved from one department to another;
- A rule is being moved from one title to another; or
- A section of a rule is being moved to a different rule.
In each of these cases, you may use the “Changed to Admin. Code Ref. (R. no)” fields. So, for example, let’s say that the Division of Administrative Rules is moved from the Department of Administrative Services to the Lieutenant Governor’s Office. A proposed amendment for each rule from the Division would be prepared, and the “Changed to Admin. Code Ref. (R. no)” fields would be used to show the new title number:
Remember, these fields are only used when titles, rules, or sections are being moved from one part of the code to another.
