During the 2011 General Session, the Utah Legislature passed 504 bills and resolutions (see http://le.utah.gov/asp/passedbills/passedbills.asp for the complete list).  Of those, 440 bills were signed by the governor and have or will become law.

As we reminded agencies back on 02/28/2011, statute (Subsection 63G-3-302(13)) requires agencies to file rules mandated by legislation with the Division of Administrative Rules within 180 days of the bill’s effective date.

Twenty-nine of the bills passed this year provide for an effective date earlier than 05/10/2011.  Included below is a list of these bills, with each bill’s effective date, and the date by which rules must be filed *if the bill mandates rulemaking*.
