The 12-month limit on eligibility is being removed, and the income guidelines are being revised. The definition of “infant and toddler” in the payment rate tables is being revised to include children up to three years old, and the definition of “preschool” is being revised accordingly.Fiscal Impact    The current CCA Plus program is based on an income limit of 85 percent of the state median income and is limited to 12 months. The time limit is in conflict with federal regulations. Effective July 1, 2020, the time limit will be eliminated and the income eligibility criteria will be reduced to 225 percent of the federal poverty level.

On November 6, 2019, the Board issued a written ruling formalizing its reasons for declining to issue the order.    This proposed rule making now addresses the issue raised by the petition for declaratory order and clarifies the scope of the Board’s jurisdiction to impose discipline against a current participant in the Iowa Nurse Assistance Program. This rule making clarifies that, consistent with the jurisdictional authority provided in Iowa Code section 272C.3(1)“k,” a participant’s entrance into an initial agreement or contract with the program committee does not divest the Board of its authority to discipline a current participant in circumstances involving out-of-state discipline or criminal convictions, notwithstanding any relation to the participant’s impairment. This rule making also clarifies that a current participant shall be referred to the Board for appropriate action if that participant is alleged to have violated a statute or Board rule based on conduct unrelated to the participant’s impairment.     This rule making also updates the language in Chapter 19 to reflect modern terminology for defining qualifying impairments. Additionally, this rule making clarifies that any self-report from applicants or licensees must be submitted in a written form as opposed to verbally. This is to assist in record keeping and clarity of the histories of participants.    This rule making updates the definition of treatment providers from “approved” by the Board to “recognized” by the Board, while still allowing the Board to retain the authority to approve treatment providers. This change is in response to confusion by participants as to which online list or providers they should refer.Fiscal Impact    This rule making has no fiscal impact to the State of Iowa. Jobs Impact    After analysis and review of this rule making, no impact on jobs has been found.Waivers    Any person who believes that the application of the discretionary provisions of this rule making would result in hardship or injustice to that person may petition the Board for a waiver of the discretionary provisions, if any, pursuant to 655—Chapter 15.

In 2015, NCIMS added the new Food Safety Modernization Act (FSMA) to the PMO, thus necessitating the Department’s adoption of the newer version to remain compliant with the Department’s 21 CFR 20.88 agreement with the Food and Drug Administration.Public Comment and Changes to Rule Making    Notice of Intended Action for this rule making was published in the Iowa Administrative Bulletin on January 1, 2020, as ARC 4838C. A public hearing was held on January 22, 2020, at 9 a.m. in the Second Floor Conference Room, Wallace State Office Building, Des Moines, Iowa. No one attended the public hearing.

    The Agriculture and Land Stewardship Department hereby amends Chapter 85, “Weights and Measures,” Iowa Administrative Code.Legal Authority for Rule Making    This rule making is adopted under the authority provided in Iowa Code sections 189.2 and 215.24.State or Federal Law Implemented    This rule making implements, in whole or in part, Iowa Code chapters 189 and 215.Purpose and Summary    This rule making is limited in scope to adoption by reference of the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) Handbook 130, (2020), Part IV, Section G, 2.1.2, specifically that section and not the entire manual. The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) issued an amended administrative rule making that withdrew the “vapor pressure” prohibition on the retail marketing of motor fuel containing 15 percent ethanol from June 1 through September 15 of a calendar year. While the EPA made the regulatory change, the NIST had not yet completed its process to alter the requirements in the NIST Handbook. The lag created a regulatory inconsistency between the EPA’s regulations and the Department’s administrative rules that incorporate by reference the NIST standard that contains the “vapor pressure” seasonal sales prohibition. The Department issued a waiver of the rule from June 1, 2019, to September 15, 2019, to address this discrepancy.Public Comment and Changes to Rule Making    Notice of Intended Action for this rule making was published in the Iowa Administrative Bulletin on January 1, 2020, as ARC 4844C. A public hearing was held on January 22, 2020, at 1 p.m. in the Second Floor Conference Room, Wallace State Office Building, Des Moines, Iowa. No one attended the public hearing.

Adoption of Rule Making    This rule making was adopted by the Department on February 7, 2020.Fiscal Impact     This rule making has no fiscal impact to the State of Iowa. Jobs Impact    After analysis and review of this rule making, no impact on jobs has been found.Waivers    Any person who believes that the application of the discretionary provisions of this rule making would result in hardship or injustice to that person may petition the Department for a waiver of the discretionary provisions, if any, pursuant to 21—Chapter 8.Review by Administrative Rules Review Committee    The Administrative Rules Review Committee, a bipartisan legislative committee which oversees rule making by executive branch agencies, may, on its own motion or on written request by any individual or group, review this rule making at its regular monthly meeting or at a special meeting.

    The Dental Board hereby amends Chapter 20, “Dental Assistants,” and Chapter 22, “Dental Assistant Radiography Qualification,” Iowa Administrative Code.Legal Authority for Rule Making    This rule making is adopted under the authority provided in Iowa Code section 147.76.State or Federal Law Implemented    This rule making implements, in whole or in part, Iowa Code section 153.39.Purpose and Summary    These amendments update examination requirements to better reflect the needs of applicants for dental assistant registration in the state of Iowa and to reduce barriers of entry to the job market. Current rules require prospective dental assistants who twice fail required examinations in the areas of jurisprudence, infection control and radiography to submit proof of formal education in the area of examination failure through a program approved by the Board or a school accredited by the Commission on Dental Accreditation. This remedial education is required before the applicant can test a third time. Remediation can be difficult for some dental assistant applicants to complete due to a lack of local options available or due to cost of the training.    The Board wants to be responsive to this issue by eliminating formal remediation requirements. Prospective dental assistants who fail the exam have the ability to review study materials issued by the Board, which provides the opportunity for self-remediation. Further, dental assistant trainees work under the personal supervision of a dentist, which provides safeguards to the public. Public Comment and Changes to Rule Making    Notice of Intended Action for this rule making was published in the Iowa Administrative Bulletin on November 6, 2019, as ARC 4741C. One written comment was received. Lisa Swett, R.D.H., with Impact Dental Training, expressed concern and believes that formal remediation is beneficial and establishes a basic level of competency for those entering the profession. Ms. Swett believes that it is counterproductive to allow individuals to retest without formal remediation. Ms. Swett stated that Impact Dental Training would be happy to consider alternative platforms if access is a problem. No changes from the Notice have been made.Adoption of Rule Making    This rule making was adopted by the Board on January 24, 2020.Fiscal Impact     This rule making has no fiscal impact to the State of Iowa. Jobs Impact    After analysis and review of this rule making, there is a positive impact on jobs, as the remediation requirement delays entry into the job market.Waivers    Any person who believes that the application of the discretionary provisions of this rule making would result in hardship or injustice to that person may petition the Board for a waiver of the discretionary provisions, if any.

The Committee’s meetings are open to the public, and interested persons may be heard as provided in Iowa Code section 17A.8(6).Effective Date    This rule making will become effective on April 1, 2020.    The following rule-making actions are adopted:

    The Revenue Department hereby amends Chapter 54, “Allocation and Apportionment,” and Chapter 59, “Determination of Net Income,” Iowa Administrative Code.Legal Authority for Rule Making    This rule making is adopted under the authority provided in Iowa Code section 422.68.State or Federal Law Implemented    This rule making implements, in whole or in part, Iowa Code sections 422.33 and 422.63.Purpose and Summary    Recent federal tax reform legislation, Public Law 115-97, commonly referred to as the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act (TCJA), created a new category of income, Global Intangible Low Tax Income (GILTI), which must be included in a taxpayer’s U.S. income. Beginning in tax year 2019, Iowa also requires taxpayers to include federal GILTI, after subtracting allowable federal deductions, if any, in the taxpayer’s Iowa net income. Where a business engages in its trade or business partly within and partly outside of Iowa, Iowa income taxes are imposed only on that portion of the business’s income reasonably attributable to its activities within Iowa. The amount of business income reasonably attributable to Iowa is determined using formulas provided either in the Iowa Code or in administrative rules adopted by the Department. Because GILTI represents a new category of income, it does not fit neatly into any of the existing categories of income for which the Iowa Code and rules provide methods of apportionment. Therefore, the Department is adopting these amendments to provide a formula for apportioning GILTI within and without Iowa.    In addition to providing an apportionment formula for GILTI, the amendments include some cleanup of rule 701—54.2(422), the existing rule for the apportionment of investment income. Subrule 54.2(2) was superseded by subrule 54.2(3) in 1995, but subrule 54.2(2) remains in rule 701—54.2(422) today. These amendments strike the superseded text of subrule 54.2(2) and replace it with reorganized and expanded information about when investment income must, or may by election, be included in the Iowa apportionment factor and about when and how the election may be made or changed.Public Comment and Changes to Rule Making    Notice of Intended Action for this rule making was published in the Iowa Administrative Bulletin on January 1, 2020, as ARC 4843C.     The Department received a total of four comments. All commenters stated their opposition to the proposed rule making. However, all commenters’ arguments focused heavily on whether GILTI should be included in the tax base at all, rather than on the apportionment method prescribed in the rule making. All commenters appeared to agree that current statutory language does require that GILTI be included in the Iowa tax base. Some commenters asserted that the statute should not be enforced because it may be subject to constitutional challenge. Others argued that the current statute could be interpreted differently to allow a larger deduction for GILTI, or simply that the Legislature should amend the statute to exclude more or all of GILTI. While the Department respects these arguments, it cannot stand in the place of either the Legislature or a court and must enforce the law as written.    Two commenters requested that the Department use a different apportionment method for GILTI from the one provided in the Notice. Both requested that the Department adopt what is commonly referred to as “full factor” apportionment. The Department considered using a “full factor” apportionment method, both before drafting the original Notice and after receiving the comments. The comments provided no new information that would change the Department’s position. The apportionment method prescribed in the Notice and adopted herein is more consistent with other states’ treatment of this income, and as one commenter noted, the “full factor” apportionment method the commenters requested would be “very complex, if not impossible” to administer.    No substantive changes from the Notice have been made. A typographical error in subparagraph 54.2(3)“f”(4) has been corrected.Adoption of Rule Making    This rule making was adopted by the Department on February 5, 2020.Fiscal Impact    This rule making has no fiscal impact beyond that of the legislation it is intended to implement. The income affected by this rule making is included in Iowa income as a result of 2018 Iowa Acts, Senate File 2417. The fiscal impact statement for Senate File 2417 did not specifically address the fiscal impact of these items of income, but did include them in the overall impact of the legislation. In 2019, the Department performed a fiscal analysis for legislation that would have effectively removed most of the income covered by this rule from Iowa income tax. The Department can provide a copy of that analysis upon request. Jobs Impact    After analysis and review of this rule making, no impact on jobs has been found.Waivers    Any person who believes that the application of the discretionary provisions of this rule making would result in hardship or injustice to that person may petition the Department for a waiver of the discretionary provisions, if any, pursuant to rule 701—7.28(17A).Review by Administrative Rules Review Committee    The Administrative Rules Review Committee, a bipartisan legislative committee which oversees rule making by executive branch agencies, may, on its own motion or on written request by any individual or group, review this rule making at its regular monthly meeting or at a special meeting. The Committee’s meetings are open to the public, and interested persons may be heard as provided in Iowa Code section 17A.8(6).Effective Date    This rule making will become effective on April 1, 2020.    The following rule-making actions are adopted:
