New and revised standards - rules. The executive director may adopt by rule a more recent version of any standard or test method established in section 6-7.5-105, including any product definition associated with the standard or test method, in order to maintain or improve consistency with other comparable standards in other states, so long as the resulting efficiency is equal to or greater than the efficiency achieved using the prior standard or test method. The executive director shall allow at least a one-year delay between the adoption by rule and the enforcement of any new standard or test method.
