The proposed emergency regulations will amend the California Code of Regulations (CCR), commencing with Section 18660.5, Chapter 8.2, Division 7 of Title 14.

Written comments which offer recommendations, objections, support for, or opposition to the proposed amendments should indicate the amended section(s) to which the comment or comments are directed. The public comment period will commence on December 3, 2024, when the emergency regulations are posted on the Office of Administrative Law’s (OAL) website. The public comment period will close on December 9, 2024.
