Regulations

The regulation process follows the procedures set forth in Nevada's Administrative Procedure Act, Nevada Revised Statutes ("NRS") 233B. Regulations are rules adopted by an agency that have the force and effect of law, which are used to provide more specificity about how statutes are implemented or interpreted by the agency. Typically, either legislation will mandate an agency promulgate a regulation, or an issue will arise that necessitates one.

Generally, the Division will publish a notice and hold a public workshop to introduce the proposed regulation idea and to obtain feedback about the proposed regulation. The Division will draft proposed regulation language, and send it to the Legislative Counsel Bureau ("LCB"). LCB drafts the proposed regulation language to conform to the drafting rules for Nevada and sends it back to the Division. Sometimes the Division obtains a draft of the proposed regulation from LCB to present at the workshop for discussion. If the Division seeks to move forward with the proposed regulation, the Division will publish a notice that a public hearing will be held on the proposed regulation. After the hearing, the hearing officer issues a recommendation to the Commissioner regarding whether the proposed regulation should be adopted. If the Commissioner adopts the proposed regulation, the adopted regulation must be reviewed and approved by the Legislative Commission at a public hearing. If approved, the regulation is filed with the Nevada Secretary of State.

To obtain a copy of a regulation proposed or promulgated by the Division, visit the Nevada Register of Administrative Regulations, https://www.leg.state.nv.us/register/. Regulations are categorized by year, and may be found by Numerical Index (using the regulation number) or by Subject Index (search by agency or NAC Chapter). Since adopted regulations are not immediately codified, check the Register of Administrative Regulations for changes to regulations.
