Except as provided in NRS 274.140, a state agency may provide in its regulations for the exemption of businesses within specially benefited zones or for modifications or alternatives specifically applicable to businesses within those zones, which impose less stringent standards or alternative standards for compliance, including standards based on performance as a substitute for specific requirements concerning methods, procedures or equipment. The agency adopting those exemptions, modifications or alternatives shall file with its proposed regulation its findings that the proposed regulation provides economic incentives within specially benefited zones which promote the purposes of this chapter and which, to the extent they include any exemptions or reductions in regulatory standards or requirements, outweigh the need or justification for the existing regulation.2.

Regulations adopted under subsection 1 are subject to any superseding regulations of the Administrator adopted under NRS 274.120.3. Except as provided in NRS 274.140, a designating municipality may modify, with respect to specially benefited zones, all local ordinances and regulations regarding zoning, licensing or building codes.Added to NRS by 1983, 1980Added to NRS by 1983, 1980
