This bill amends the Code of West Virginia to authorize the State Emergency Response Commission to promulgate a legislative rule concerning the Emergency Planning Grant Program. Specifically, it addresses the legislative rule that was filed in the State Register on August 29, 2024, and subsequently modified to address objections from the Legislative Rule-Making Review Committee before being refiled on October 1, 2024.

The bill aims to formalize the authority of the State Emergency Response Commission to implement this rule, ensuring that the Emergency Planning Grant Program is effectively governed and operational. The text indicates that this section is new, and therefore, there are no deletions or existing legal language being modified.
