Note

EDITOR’S NOTE: This emergency action expired on 7-14-08 before being superseded by a permanent action. Upon expiration of an emergency amendatory action, the last effective permanent text is reinstated. Therefore, on 7-15-08 (after the 7-14-08 expiration of the emergency action), the text of 317:30-5-432 reverted back to the permanent text that became effective 6-27-02, as was last published in the 2006 Edition of the OAC, and remained as such until amended again by permanent action on 7-25-08.
