The Department of Licensing and Regulatory Affairs will hold a public hearing to receive public  
comments on proposed changes to the Michigan Gas Safety Standards rule set.  
The primary purpose of these amendments to an existing rule set is to adopt by reference current federal  
regulations governing gas safety along with updating certain other technical standards contained in the  
rules. The Michigan Public Service Commission also proposes to add record retention periods. The  
proposed amendments also make minor changes to Michigan rules so that the language in these rules  
conforms more closely to the federal rules.  
By authority conferred on the public service commission by section 2 of 1969 PA 165, MCL 483.152, and  
section 231 of the executive reorganization act of 1965, 1965 PA 380, MCL 16.331, and Executive  
Reorganization Order Nos. 1996-2, 2003-1, 2008-4, 2011-4, and 2015-3, MCL 445.2001, 445.2011,  
445.2025, 445.2030, and 460.21. These rules will take effect Immediately after filing with the Secretary  
of State. The rules are published on the Michigan Government web site at  
http://www.michigan.gov/moahr and in the Michigan Register in the 3/15/2021 issue. Copies of the draft
