Any tangible media submitted for filing under this chapter must be examined by the state agency within a reasonable time after presentment. The examination may include any virus check or security check to ensure the safety and security of the state agency's systems, equipment, and software. If the tangible media cannot produce a readable usable form of the document, the state agency shall notify the filer filing the tangible media in writing informing the filer that the tangible media is unreadable, damaged, or not usable by the state agency and requesting that the filer submit a new tangible media object. If the new tangible media object is received not later than thirty days from the date the written notice is sent by the state agency, the new tangible media object will be deemed to have been filed as of the date originally submitted. A tangible media filing submitted other than in conformity with this chapter may be rejected by the agency and may not be deemed filed for any purpose.
