The bill amends subdivision b of subsection 1 of section 28-32-10 of the North Dakota Century Code, which pertains to the requirements for abbreviated notices in administrative rulemaking. The revised language mandates that agencies or commissions must publish an abbreviated notice at least once in each official county newspaper in North Dakota. The notice must be in a display-type format with specific dimensions and include a headline that describes the general topic of the proposed rules.

Additionally, the bill specifies that the notice must include the telephone number or address for obtaining a copy of the proposed rules, details about the emergency status and effective date of any emergency rules, the address and deadline for submitting written comments, and a short description of the general subject matter of the proposed rules. It also allows for the inclusion of a quick response code that provides access to the full notice or additional information related to the proposed rules, at the discretion of the agency or commission.
