§ 806k. Rulemaking functions of the interstate commission — Article XII A

• . Rulemaking Authority — The Interstate Commission shall promulgate reasonable rules in order to effectively
  and efficiently achieve the purposes of this Compact. Notwithstanding the foregoing,
  in the event the Interstate Commission exercises its rulemaking authority in a manner
  that is beyond the scope of the purposes of this Act, or the powers granted hereunder,
  then such an action by the Interstate Commission shall be invalid and have no force
  or effect. B. Rulemaking Procedure — Rules shall be made pursuant to a rulemaking process that substantially conforms to
  the “Model State Administrative Procedure Act,” of 1981, Uniform Laws Annotated, Vol.
  15, p.1 (2000) as amended, as may be appropriate to the operations of the Interstate
  Commission. C. Not later than thirty (30) days after a rule is promulgated, any person may file a
  petition for judicial review of the rule; provided, that the filing of such a petition
  shall not stay or otherwise prevent the rule from becoming effective unless the court
  finds that the petitioner has a substantial likelihood of success. The court shall
  give deference to the actions of the Interstate Commission consistent with applicable
  law and shall not find the rule to be unlawful if the rule represents a reasonable
  exercise of the Interstate Commission’s authority. D. If a majority of the legislatures of the compacting states rejects a rule by enactment
  of a statute or resolution in the same manner used to adopt the compact, then such
  rule shall have no further force and effect in any compacting state. (Added 2011, No. 43, § 1.)
