After a rule is filed, the secretary of state shall, within seven (7) days of its acceptance, add the filed rule to the appropriate location within the portion of the secretary of state's web site devoted to this chapter. The secretary of state's web site shall contain the following:
The text of all pending rules, notices of rulemaking hearings, withdrawal of rules, stays of effective dates, withdrawal of stays of effective dates, emergency rules, announcements and proclamations. The text shall remain on the web site until the filing becomes effective as provided by this chapter. After the effective date of the rule, the filing shall be archived on the web site;
A table listing the citations of all rules filed that have pending effective dates, hearing dates or some other action required by this chapter;
A table listing all emergency rules in effect;
A table of all pending rules and regulations with projected financial impact upon local governments as provided to the secretary of state pursuant to § 4-5-228; and
Any other notices or documents designated by law or by the secretary of state.
The secretary of state shall compile on the secretary of state's web site an official compilation of all the effective rules of each agency. Rules compiled and published on the secretary of state's web site as of July 1, 2016, shall be deemed the official compilation of the effective rules of each agency, as amended by the secretary of state from time to time to reflect the addition, deletion, or revision of rules in accordance with this part. The secretary of state shall update agency rules on the effective date of any new amendment to existing rules or of any new rules. The secretary of state shall incorporate emergency rules within the appropriate agency's rules within four (4) days of their filing. The secretary of state shall revise the official compilation of rules upon the expiration of an emergency rule.
The secretary of state may, in the secretary of state's discretion, omit from the register or the compilation rules, which, if published, would be unduly cumbersome, expensive or otherwise inexpedient, if such rules are made available in printed, electronic or processed form on application to the adopting agency, and if the register or compilation contains a notice stating the general subject matter of the rules so omitted and stating how copies of the rules may be obtained.
The secretary of state shall make the register web site and the official rules and regulation web site available through the Internet without charge to the user.
