Consensus Rule Making Determination
No person is likely to object to this proposed rule making since it merely corrects an error in the title of Subpart 589-2.
Subpart 589-1, which precedes Subpart 589.2 in 14 NYCRR is correctly titled: Subpart 589-1 Operation of Situational Crisis Residence and the text of Subpart 589-1 deals with and references situational crisis residence. However, Subpart 589-2, is also titled: Operation of Situational Crisis Residence, even though the text of Subpart 589-2 deals with and references acute psychiatric crisis residence. This consensus rule making will correct the title of Subpart 589-2.
Job Impact Statement
It is evident from the nature of the proposed rule making, which merely corrects the title of a subpart, that the proposed rule making will have no impact on jobs or employment activities.
