1. (a) This Subchapter describes the codification scheme for inclusion of rules in the Oklahoma Administrative Code. Inclusion of a rule in the OAC requires prior publication in the Register as a finally adopted permanent rule or an adopted preemptive rule that has been approved by the Governor. Emergency rules are not added to the OAC. However, emergency rules are published in the Register. They are part of the history of a Section or Appendix as referenced in Section/Appendix source notes in the OAC, and must be prepared pursuant to the codification scheme.
2. (b) Unless otherwise specifically noted, the rules of this Subchapter apply to permanent, emergency, and preemptive rules.
