(B) EFFECT OF ORDER.

AN ORDER ISSUED BY THE SECRETARY UNDER THIS SECTION
MAY:

(1)  REINSTATE, RESCIND, OR MODIFY A STATE
ADOPTED FEDERAL RULE OR REGULATION AS A RULE OR REGULATION
OF THIS STATE; OR

(2)  AS TO ANY OTHER RULE OR REGULATION PROPOSED
UNDER THIS SUBTITLE:

(I)  WITHDRAW THE PROPOSAL;

(II)  MODIFY THE PROPOSAL AND SET AN
EFFECTIVE DATE FOR THE MODIFIED PROPOSAL THAT IS AT LEAST 60
DAYS AFTER PUBLICATION OF THE ORDER; OR

(III)  SET A NEW EFFECTIVE DATE FOR THE
ORIGINAL PROPOSAL THAT IS AT LEAST 60 DAYS AFTER PUBLICATION
OF THE ORDER.

REVISOR'S NOTE: This section is new language derived
without substantive change from the last five
sentences of former Article 43, § 191B(f).

In subsection (a)(l)(ii) of this section,
"registered mail" is substituted for "certified
mail" in light of Article 1, § 20 of the Code.

The General Assembly may wish to amend this
section to permit protest and hearing on any
modification the Secretary may propose to make
under this section. Under the current law, there
appears to be no requirement for permitting
protest or hearing on these modifications.
