ARC 1994C
INSPECTIONS AND APPEALS DEPARTMENT[481]
Adopted and Filed
Pursuant to the authority of Iowa Code section 231C.3(1), the Department of Inspections and Appeals hereby amends Chapter 67, “General Provisions for Elder Group Homes, Assisted Living Programs, and Adult Day Services,” Iowa Administrative Code.
The adopted amendment rescinds the definition of “applicant or certificate holder.” This amendment corresponds to recently adopted amendments to Chapters 68, 69, and 70 (see ARC 1927C, IAB 4/1/15) that clarify the contents of an application for certification and the process for notifying the Department of a change of ownership of a program and add a definition for “change of ownership.” With the adoption of those amendments, the definition for “applicant or certificate holder” is obsolete.
The Department does not believe that this rule making poses a financial hardship on any regulated entity or individual.
Notice of Intended Action was published in the Iowa Administrative Bulletin on April 1, 2015, as ARC 1942C. The Department received no comments during the public comment period. This amendment is identical to the one published under Notice of Intended Action.
After analysis and review of this rule making, no impact on jobs has been found.
This amendment is intended to implement Iowa Code sections 231B.2(1), 231C.3(1), and 231D.2(2).
This amendment shall become effective July 1, 2015.
The following amendment is adopted.
	Rescind the definition of “Applicant or certificate holder” in rule 481—67.1(231B,231C,231D).
