SECTION 460:20-5-8. When to file

(a)   Employees and members of advisory boards, the Oklahoma Mining Commission, and commissions representing multiple interests performing functions or duties under the Act shall file:

(1)   Within 120 days of the effective date of the approval of the state program; and

(2)   Annually on February 1 of each year, or at such other date as may be agreed to by the Director of OSM, provided that such alternative date will allow sufficient time to obtain information needed by the Director for his or her annual report to the Governor and to the Director of OSM.

(b)   New employees, members of advisory boards, the Oklahoma Mining Commission, and commissions representing multiple interests hired, appointed or transferred to perform functions or duties under the Act will be required to file at the time of entrance to duty.

(c)   New employees, and new appointments to advisory boards, the Oklahoma Mining Commission, and commissions representing multiple interests are not required to file an annual statement on the subsequent annual filing date if this date occurs within two months after their initial statement was filed. For example, an employee entering duty on December 2, 1986 would file a statement on that date. Because December 2 is within two months of February 1 the employee would not be required to file his or her next annual statement until February 2, 1988.
