Consensus Rule Making Determination
The Department of Correctional and Community Supervision (DOCCS) has determined that no person is likely to object to the proposed action. The amendment of this section corrects the address of Rochester Correctional Facility. The street where the original front entrance to the facility was located has been closed. A new front entrance has been located on an adjacent street and a new address was assigned. See SAPA Section 102(11)(a).
The Department’s authority resides in section 70 of Correction Law, which mandates that each correctional facility must be designated in the rules and regulations of the Department and assigns the Commissioner the duty to classify each facility with respect to the type of security maintained and the function as specified. See Correction Law § 70(6).
Job Impact Statement
A job impact statement is not submitted because this proposed rulemaking will merely correct the address for Rochester Correctional Facility. This has no adverse impact on jobs or employment opportunities. Additionally, there is no adverse impact on jobs or employment.
