<p class="MsoNormal"> <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left:.25in">Please find attached a Notice of Proposed Rulemaking Hearing and Statement of Need and Fiscal Impact for the following proposed rulemaking.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left:.25in"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left:.25in"><u>Rule Caption</u>: Notice of proposed rule procedures, good cause application extension, and reapplication after revocation.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="mso-margin-top-alt:6.0pt;margin-right:0in;margin-bottom:12.0pt;margin-left:.25in">
<u>Rule Summary</u>: The proposed rulemaking requires the Board of Psychologist Examiners (Board) to no longer mail a copy of continuing education-related rulemaking notices to the State Board of Higher Education (which no longer exists), but instead to mail
notice to the State Higher Education Coordinating Commission. It also removes language already specified in
<span style="color:black">ORS 183.360</span>. The Board proposes that it will not review a subsequent application for licensure for at least two years after a license revocation or surrender under investigation, and clarifies that an applicant’s active application
period may be extended for good cause.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="mso-margin-top-alt:6.0pt;margin-right:0in;margin-bottom:12.0pt;margin-left:.25in">
<u>Public Comments</u>: The agency requests public comment on whether the options should be considered for achieving the rule’s substantive goals while reducing negative economic impact of the rule on business. Please email your comments to
<a href="mailto:laree.felton@state.or.us">laree.felton@state.or.us</a> or mail them to the Board’s office at 3218 Pringle Road SE, Ste. 130, Salem, OR 97302. All comments must be received no later than
<b>5:00 p.m. on January 6, 2016</b>.<o:p></o:p></p>
