IC 4-22-2.1-5 Statement Concerning Rules Affecting Small Businesses

Estimated Number of Small Businesses Subject to this Rule:

None. No small businesses will be subject to this rule. This proposed amendment clarifies the applicability of IC 7.1-3-17.8 to Indiana Dunes State Park (Dunes).

Estimated Average Annual Reporting, Record Keeping, and Other Administrative Costs Small Businesses Will Incur for Compliance:

None. No small businesses will be subject to this rule. This proposed amendment clarifies the applicability of IC 7.1-3-17.8 to Dunes.

Estimated Total Annual Economic Impact on Small Businesses to Comply:

None. No small businesses will be subject to this rule. This proposed amendment clarifies the applicability of IC 7.1-3-17.8 to Dunes.

Justification Statement of Requirement or Cost:

None. No small businesses will be subject to this rule. This proposed amendment clarifies the applicability of IC 7.1-3-17.8 to Dunes.

Regulatory Flexibility Analysis of Alternative Methods:

The alternative to this proposed rule amendment is leaving the rule unchanged, which would potentially misconstrue the legislative intent of IC 7.1-3-17.8. To ensure the legislative intent is upheld, DNR's proposed rule amendment clarifies the applicability of the newly legislated code to Dunes. This determination by DNR leadership is within its statutory and administrative discretion. Further, this change will not subject small businesses to additional costs or oversight.
