 Rulemaking Hearing on August 1, 2013

Proposed Changes with Statement of Basis, Purpose, and Authority

Basis and Purpose: To amend Board Rule I.B in order to re-introduce the Board’s former rule allowing for “indirect supervision” to occur under limited circumstances now that the supervision requirement in section 12-64-103(17), C.R.S has been amended to change the supervision requirements of “veterinary premises.” Additionally, to create Board Rule II.A.17 in order to address the licensure exemption allowed pursuant to House Bill 12-1059.      

Statement of Authority:  Pursuant to section 12-64-105(9)(j), C.R.S., the Board has the power to “adopt, amend, or repeal all rules necessary for its government and all regulations necessary to carry into effect the provisions of this article.”
