The proposed rule amendments would not impose any requirements or costs under IC 4-22-2-24(d)(3).

Anyone who wishes to comment on the proposed rule may attend the public hearing or submit written comments to: FSSA, Division of Family Resources, Attention: Jim Dunn, 402 West Washington Street, Room W363 MS 09, Indianapolis, IN 46204.
