A document is officially "filed" or "submitted" for purposes of APA and ARR compliance upon receipt in the OAR and assignment of a docket number. Agencies should carefully note the distinction between the date of receipt and the date of acceptance.

(1)Date of receipt. The date of receipt is the date the document is received in the OAR. The date of receipt constitutes the filing date for purposes of APA and ARR compliance and for purposes of compliance with the APA requirement to file rules within thirty (30) calendar days after they become finally adopted [75:251(B)].

(2)Date of acceptance. The date of acceptance is the date the reviewed document is accepted for publication by the OAR pursuant to 655:10-11-1. Failure of the OAR to reject a document by the acceptance deadline, as set forth in 655:10-9-3 shall constitute acceptance of the document.
