Sec. 1. (a) This subsection and subsection (b) set an expiration date for rules adopted under IC 4-22-2-37.1 (as effective before July 1, 2023) or IC 4-22-2-37 (before its repeal) that at the time of adoption were permitted by law to continue in effect for an indefinite period of time. The rules to which this subsection applies include rules that were permitted to continue until another emergency rule or a final rule was adopted to replace the emergency rule or the agency repealed the emergency rule.

as applicable. An emergency rule that expires under this subsection may not be renewed under IC 4-22-2-37.1 (as effective after June 30, 2023). If the rule meets the criteria in IC 4-22-2-37.2 for adoption as an interim rule, the rule may be adopted under IC 4-22-2-37.2.

(2) readopted as part of a provision of the Indiana Administrative Code that was readopted under IC 4-22-2.5 (before its repeal) or IC 13-14-9.5 (before its repeal);
continues in effect to the extent that the text remains part of the provision of the Indiana Administrative Code into which the emergency rule text was incorporated.
