Adopted Rule Review

Texas Department of Agriculture

Title 4, Part 1

The Texas Department of Agriculture (the department) adopts without changes the rule review proposed for Title 4, Texas Administrative Code, Part 1, Chapter 2, concerning Licensing, pursuant to the Texas Government Code, §2001.039. The proposed notice of intent to review was published in the June 3, 2005, issue of the Texas Register (30 TexReg 3263). No comments were received on the proposal.

Section 2001.039 requires state agencies to review each of their rules every four years and consider the rules under review for readoption, revision or repeal. The review must include an assessment of whether the original justification for the rules continues to exist.

As part of the review process, the department proposed the amendment of Title 4, Part 1, §2.1 and §2.4 and the repeal of §2.2. The proposed amendments were published in the proposed rule section of the June 3, 2005, issue of the Texas Register (30 TexReg 3188). No comments were received on the proposed amendments.

The assessment of Title 4, Part 1, Chapter 2, conducted by the department at this time indicates that, with the addition of the adopted amendment to §2.1 and §2.4 and repeal of §2.2, the original justification for the rules continues to exist, and the department is readopting all sections in this chapter without changes.
