BILL NUMBER: S642 TITLE OF BILL : An act to amend the state administrative procedure act, the executive law and the legislative law, in relation to the transmittal of certain records by electronic means PURPOSE : The purpose of this bill is to incorporate into the rule-making process the ability of state agencies, if they choose to, to transmit rule-making notices by electronic transmission as provided for pursuant to the State Technology Law. Currently, pursuant to the State Administrative Procedure Act (SAPA) all notices of proposed rule-making, revised rule-making, adoptions, and the Regulatory Impact Statements (RIS) and Regulatory Flexibly Analysis (RFA), must be filed with the Secretary of State for publication in the State Register and copies of such rule-making notices must be transmitted to all New York State Legislative Leaders. Enacting this bill would allow state agencies to submit those rule-making notices electronically, either in addition to, or in lieu of the paper copies that are transmitted. The goal of this bill is to reduce the use of paper, when appropriate, to reduce the cost of preparing and transmitting such notices. Hence, this is a eco-friendly bill that not only should help to reduce paper. waste, but reduce costs currently borne by state agencies. SUMMARY OF PROVISIONS :
