The proposed bill would amend section 41-1074 of the Arizona Revised Statutes by removing the exception for applications submitted to the department of water resources under title 45. This change means that all applications, regardless of their nature, would be subject to the same rules regarding administrative completeness determinations.

Additionally, the bill clarifies that a determination by an agency that an application is not administratively complete is an appealable agency action. The language regarding the entitlement to an adjudication on the merits of the administrative completeness of the application remains unchanged, ensuring that applicants still have the right to challenge such determinations.
