(3) approval;

for state implementation or operation of a program established under federal law.

However, an agency shall:

(2) if an agency cannot comply with subdivision (1), provide electronic notice to the publisher stating the reasons for the agency's noncompliance.

(1) the agency publishes a proposed rule under section 23 or 37.2 of this chapter;  or

(2) in the case of a change in a statute described in section 38 of this chapter, the agency files with the publisher a rule document under section 38 of this chapter.

Except as otherwise provided in IC 4-22-2.3, if an interim rulemaking procedure is commenced under section 37.2 of this chapter, the agency shall commence a permanent rulemaking process under section 23 of this chapter before the adopted interim rule expires.
