LAWS OF MARYLAND

Ch. 284

"Register" § 7-201
7-218. PUBLICATION ERRORS.

(A)  GENERAL CORRECTIONS.

SUBJECT TO SUBSECTION (B) OF THIS SECTION, THE ADMINISTRATOR
SHALL CORRECT AN ERROR IN THE OFFICIAL TEXT OF A DOCUMENT IN THE
CODE OF MARYLAND REGULATIONS OR THE REGISTER BY:

(1)  INCLUSION OF THE CORRECTION IN AN ERRATA LIST IN
THE REGISTER; OR

(2)  PUBLICATION OF A CORRECTED FORM OF THE AFFECTED
PART OF THE DOCUMENT IN THE CODE OF MARYLAND REGULATIONS OR THE
REGISTER.

(B)  ERROR WITH LEGAL EFFECT.

(1)  AN ERROR THAT IS MADE IN PUBLICATION OF A
DOCUMENT UNDER THIS SUBTITLE AND THAT CHANGES THE LEGAL EFFECT OF
A PROVISION OF THE DOCUMENT INVALIDATES ONLY:

(I)  THAT PROVISION; AND

(II)  ANY OTHER PROVISION OF THE DOCUMENT THAT
THEN IS SO INCOMPLETE THAT IT CANNOT BE CARRIED OUT IN ACCORDANCE
WITH THE PURPOSE OF THE DOCUMENT.

(2)  IF THE ERROR CHANGES THE LEGAL EFFECT OF A
PROPOSED OR ADOPTED REGULATION, THE REGULATION SHALL BE PUBLISHED
ANEW AS PROVIDED IN § 10-112 OF THIS ARTICLE.

REVISOR'S NOTE: This section is new language derived
without substantive change from former Art. 41, §
256M-l(a), (b), and the second sentence of (c).

In subsection (b)(1)(ii) of this section, the
reference to the "purpose of the document" is
substituted for the former reference to "regulatory
intent", since documents published under this subtitle
are not always "regulatory".

In subsection (b)(2) of this section, the former
reference to a "proposed amendment to a rule" is
deleted as unnecessary since, in light of the
definition of "regulation", an amendment is included
in the reference to a "proposed ... regulation".
