CALIFORNIA REGULATORY NOTICE REGISTER 2022, VOLUME NUMBER 23-Z 663 PROPOSED ACTION ON REGULATIONS Information contained in this document is published as received from agencies and is not edited by Thomson Reuters. TITLE 3. DEPARTMENT OF PESTICIDE REGULATION NOTICE OF INTENTION TO AMEND CONFLICT–OF–INTEREST CODE NOTICE IS HEREBY GIVEN that the Department of Pesticide Regulation, pursuant to the authority vest- ed in it by
section 87306 of the Government Code, proposes amendment to its conflict–of–interest code. A comment period has been established commencing on June 10, 2022 and closing on July 25, 2022. All in- quiries should be directed to the contact listed below. The Department of Pesticide Regulation proposes to amend its conflict–of–interest code to include employ- ee positions that involve the making or participation in the making of decisions that may foreseeably have a material effect on any financial interest, as set forth in subdivision (
a) of
section 87302 of the Government Code. The amendment carries out the purposes of the law and no other alternative would do so and be less burdensome to affected persons. Changes to the conflict–of–interest code include the expansion of disclosure categories for Assistant Directors within the Executive Office and the Office of Technology, as these positions hold broad responsibil- ities over discretionary decisions, requiring disclosure of all potential conflicts of interest. Furthermore, sev - eral branch names were amended due to departmental reorganizations.
Specifically, the Enforcement Branch was split into two branches, the Enforcement Regional Offices Branch and the Enforcement Headquarters Branch. Additionally, the Pest Management and Licensing Branch was renamed the Integrated Pest Management Branch. A
section of staff from the for - mer Pest Management and Licensing Branch moved to the newly created Enforcement Headquarters Branch. The Pesticide Registration Branch was split into two groups creating the Pesticide Evaluation Branch. Lastly, various other technical changes were made. The proposed amendment and explanation of the reasons can be obtained from the agency’s contact. Any interested person may submit written com - ments relating to the proposed amendment by submit- ting them no later than July 25, 2022, or at the con - clusion of the public hearing, if requested, whichever comes later.
At this time, no public hearing is sched - uled. A person may request a hearing no later than July 10, 2022. The Department of Pesticide Regulation has deter - mined that the proposed amendments: 1. Impose no mandate on local agencies or school districts. 2. Impose no costs or savings on any state agency. 3. Impose no costs on any local agency or school district that are required to be reimbursed un - der
Part 7 (commencing with
Section 17500) of Division 4 of Title 2 of the Government Code. 4. Will not result in any nondiscretionary costs or savings to local agencies. 5. Will not result in any costs or savings in federal funding to the state. 6. Will not have any potential cost impact on private persons, businesses or small businesses. All inquiries concerning this proposed amendment and any communication required by this notice should be directed to: Marsha Guzzi, Form 700 Coordinator, at Form700@cdpr.ca.gov. TITLE 11.
COMMISSION ON PEACE OFFICER STANDARDS AND TRAINING Notice is hereby given that the Commission on Peace Officer Standards and Training (POST) propos- es to amend regulations in Division 2 of Title 11 of the California Code of Regulations as described below in the Informative Digest. A public hearing is not sched- uled. Pursuant to Government Code
Section 11346.8, any interested person, or his/her duly authorized rep - resentative, may request a public hearing. POST must receive the written request no later than 15 days prior to the close of the public comment period. Public Comments Due by July 25, 2022.
Notice is also given that any interested person, or authorized representative, may submit written com - ments relevant to the proposed regulatory action by fax at (916) 227–4547, by email to Michelle Weiler at michelle.weiler@post.ca.gov, or by letter to: Commission on POST Attention: Rulemaking 860 Stillwater Road, Suite 100 West Sacramento, CA 95605–1630 AUTHORITY AND REFERENCE This proposal is made pursuant to the authority vested by Penal Code (PC)
Section 13503 (author - ity of POST), PC
Section 13506 (POST authority to
CALIFORNIA REGULATORY NOTICE REGISTER 2022, VOLUME NUMBER 23-Z 664 adopt regulations), and PC
Section 13510 (Senate Bill 2). This proposal is intended to interpret, implement, and make specific PC
Section 13510, which authoriz - es POST to establish a certification program for peace officers in the state of California. INFORMATIVE DIGEST/POLICY STATEMENT OVERVIEW On September 30, 2021, Governor Newsom signed Senate Bill (SB) 2. SB 2 made significant changes to existing Government and Penal Codes, respectively. These changes provide for additional peace officer hir- ing eligibility requirements. SB 2 also grants POST the authority to certify all peace officers in California, and subsequently take action against those certifica - tions, should POST determine serious misconduct oc- curred.
While the peace officer eligibility hiring re - quirements went into effect on January 1, 2022, the re- maining changes to Government and Penal Codes will go into effect on January 1, 2023. This rulemaking action clarifies and makes specific the factors to consider for suspension of a peace offi - cer’s certification.
Currently, Commission Regulation 1213 does not exist; therefore, POST is proposing to adopt this reg - ulation to address the criteria that the Peace Officer Standards Accountability Advisory Board (board) and Commission shall consider in determining the suspen- sion of a peace officer’s certification. The proposed text of Commission Regulation 1213 in this rulemaking action will create regulatory lan - guage strictly regarding the factors to consider for the suspension to ensure that any sanctions other than re - vocation are fair, reasonable, and not disproportionate to the alleged misconduct.
This new regulation will be adopted under a new article,
Article 4. Peace Officer Certification. Anticipated Benefits of the Proposed Amendments: The benefits anticipated by the proposed regulato - ry adoptions will be to provide factors to ensure that any sanctions other than revocation are fair, reason - able, and not disproportionate to the alleged miscon - duct, which will increase the efficiency of the state of California in delivering services to stakeholders. Thus, the law enforcement standards are maintained and effective in preserving peace, protection of public health, safety, and welfare of California.
The proposed amendments will have no impact on worker safety or the state’s environment. Evaluation of Inconsistency/Incompatibility with Existing State Regulations: POST has determined that these proposed amend - ments are not inconsistent nor incompatible with ex - isting regulations. After conducting a review for any regulations that would relate to or affect this area, POST has concluded that these are the only regula - tions that concern processes and procedures for peace officer eligibility in the state. FORMS INCORPORATED BY REFERENCE There are no forms incorporated by reference in this proposed action.
DISCLOSURES REGARDING THE PROPOSED ACTION POST has made the following initial determinations: Mandate on local agencies and school districts: None. Cost or savings to any state agency: None. Costs to any local agency or school district which must be reimbursed in accordance with Government Code Sections 17500 through 17630: None. Other non–discretionary costs or savings imposed on local agencies: None. Costs or savings in federal funding to the state: None.
Cost impacts on a representative private person or business: POST is not aware of any cost impacts that a representative private person or business would nec- essarily incur in reasonable compliance with the pro - posed action. Significant, statewide adverse economic impact di - rectly affecting California businesses: POST has de - termined that the proposed regulations will not have a significant, statewide adverse economic impact di - rectly affecting businesses, including the ability of California businesses to compete with businesses in other states. Significant effect on housing costs: None.
Small Business Determination: POST has deter - mined that the proposed regulations will not affect small business because the regulations only affect state agencies that are adopting, amending or repeal - ing regulations. Additionally, the Commission’s main function to select and maintain training standards for law enforcement has no effect financially on small businesses.
RESULTS OF ECONOMIC IMPACT ANALYSIS/ASSESSMENT POST concludes that it is (1) unlikely the proposal will create or eliminate jobs in the state of California, (2) unlikely that the proposal will create or eliminate any businesses, and (3) unlikely that the proposed reg- ulations will result in the expansion of businesses cur- rently doing business within the state. Benefits of the Proposed Action: As stated above under the Informative Digest/Policy Statement
CALIFORNIA REGULATORY NOTICE REGISTER 2022, VOLUME NUMBER 23-Z 665 Overview, the benefits of the regulation will be to in - crease the efficiency of the state of California in deliv- ering services to stakeholders by providing clarity for peace officer certification. Thus, the law enforcement standards are maintained and effective in preserving peace, protection of public health, safety, and welfare in California. There would be no impact that would af- fect worker safety or the State’s environment. CONSIDERATION OF ALTERNATIVES In accordance with Government Code
Section 11346.5, subdivision (a)(13), POST must determine that no reasonable alternative it considered, or that has otherwise identified and brought to its attention, would be more effective in carrying out the purpose for which the action is proposed, or would be as ef - fective as and less burdensome to affected private per- sons than the proposed action, or would be more cost– effective to affected private persons and equally effec- tive in implementing the statutory policy or other pro- vision of law than the proposed action.

Article 2,
Chapter 1, Division 1, Title 13 of the California Code of Regulations, regarding the California iden - tification cards, to implement provisions relating to
Section 14902 of the Vehicle Code. PUBLIC HEARING A public hearing regarding this proposed regulato - ry action is not scheduled. However, a public hearing will be held if any interested person or his or her duly authorized representative requests a public hearing to be held relevant to the proposed action by submitting a written request to the contact person identified in this notice no later than fifteen (15) days prior to the close of the written comment period.
DEADLINE FOR WRITTEN COMMENTS Any interested party or his or her duly authorized representative may submit written comments rele - vant to the proposed regulations to the contact person identified in this notice. All written comments must
CALIFORNIA REGULATORY NOTICE REGISTER 2022, VOLUME NUMBER 23-Z 668 be received at the department no later than midnight, July 26, 2022 , the final day of the written comment period, in order for them to be considered by the de - partment before it adopts the proposed regulation. AUTHORITY AND REFERENCE The department proposes to adopt these regulations under the authority granted by Vehicle Code Sections 1651 and 14902, in order to implement, interpret, or make specific Vehicle Code
Section 14902. INFORMATIVE DIGEST/POLICY STATEMENT OVERVIEW The department licenses motor vehicle drivers and provides identification documents to California resi - dents, registers vehicles and vessels, and regulates portions of the motor vehicle industry, including sell - ers, dealers, dismantlers, motor carriers, driving in - structors, traffic schools, and others. The department issues identification (ID) cards to California residents under authority of Vehicle Code
Section 13000 et seq. A fee is charged for an ID card when an appli - cant visits a department field office to apply for an ID card and demonstrates his or her identity. The fee in - creases periodically and is tied to the Consumer Price Index. Recognizing that some residents of California face significant financial limitations, or are homeless, the legislature enacted Vehicle Code
Section 14902 in 2004 and amended it in 2014 to provide ID cards at re- duced or no fees to these residents.
Section 14902 creates a two–step process for those seeking a reduced fee or no fee ID card. First, an in - dependent entity must verify the low income or home- lessness housing status of the applicant. This signed verification is then brought to the department and sub- mitted with the application for an ID card allowing the department to issue the ID card for a reduced fee or no fee. The department is given the authority in
Section 14902 to regulate the qualifications of the verifier, as well as the steps to be taken by the verifier in sub - stantiating the income or homelessness of an appli - cant. The
section describes the qualifying income lev- el for a reduced fee ID card as that which qualifies res- idents for six types of public assistance for low income households. The
section also refers to federal law as providing the definition of homeless person or youth/ child entitled to a no fee ID card. The proposed regulation will remove the require - ments that a verification form (DL 937 or DL 933) be presented as an original in person and allow an appli - cant to upload their completed eligibility form elec - tronically to the department. The department is committed to making it easi - er for the public to do business with the department.
Reducing the amount of time applicants have to spend at a departmental field office is a priority, and being able to upload a completed verification form will help expedite the process. ANTICIPATED BENEFITS OF THE PROPOSED REGULATION These regulations will allow the department to con- tinue moving forward with offering two more options for applicants to submit completed verification forms.
CONSISTENCY AND COMPATIBILITY WITH STATE REGULATIONS The department conducted a review of other state regulations and has concluded there are no other reg - ulations that establish requirements related to the is - suance of reduced fee or no fee identification cards. Therefore, the proposed regulations are neither incon- sistent nor incompatible with existing state regulations. COMPARABLE FEDERAL STATUTES OR REGULATIONS The department is the only agency tasked with issu- ing California identification cards; therefore, there are no comparable federal statutes or regulations.
Economic and Fiscal Impact Determinations The department has made the following initial de - terminations concerning the proposed regulatory action: ● Cost or Savings to Any State Agency: None. ● Other Non–Discretionary Cost or Savings to Local Agencies: None. ● Costs or Savings in Federal Funding to the State: None. ● Costs to any local agency or school district re - quiring reimbursement pursuant to Government Code
Section 17500 et seq.: None. ● Effects on Housing Costs: None. ● Impacts Directly Affecting Businesses: None. ● Significant, Statewide Adverse Economic Impact Directly Affecting Business, Including the Ability of California Businesses to Compete with Businesses in Other States: None. ● Cost Impact on Representative Private Persons or Businesses: Individuals meeting the eligibility requirements identified in this regulation will be issued an identification card at a reduced fee or no fee. The department is not aware of any cost impacts to a representative verifier of income or housing status. ● Small Business Impact: This proposed regulatory action is not expected to affect small businesses.
CALIFORNIA REGULATORY NOTICE REGISTER 2022, VOLUME NUMBER 23-Z 669 The proposed regulatory action is specific to in - dividuals by allowing individuals to upload their eligibility form to the department rather than re - quiring in–person submission. ● Local Agency/School Districts Mandate: The proposed regulatory action will not impose a mandate on local agencies or school districts, or a mandate that requires reimbursement pursuant to
Part 7 (commencing with
Section 17500) of Division 4 of the Government Code.
RESULTS OF THE ECONOMIC IMPACT STATEMENT The department has made the following determina - tions when assessing the economic impact associated with this proposed regulation: ● Creation or elimination of jobs or creation of new businesses or elimination of existing busi- nesses within the State of California : As these proposed regulations remove the requirements that a verification form (DL 937 or DL 933) be presented as an original and in person, the de - partment has determined that this proposed ac - tion will neither create nor eliminate jobs with - in the State of California, nor will the proposal create new businesses or eliminate existing busi - nesses within California. ● The Expansion of Businesses Currently Doing Business Within the State of California : These regulations are unlikely to expand businesses within the State of California. ● Benefits of the Regulations to the Health and Welfare of California Residents, Worker Safety, and the State’s Environment : These proposed regulations remove the requirements that a verification form (DL 937 or DL 933) be presented as an original and in person.
As a re - sult, this action is unlikely to produce bene - fits to worker safety or the State’s environment. However, the welfare of California residents may benefit when some applicants for a reduced fee or no fee identification card have easier access to the requirements related to income and housing sta - tus verification. Public Discussion of Proposed Regulations: A pre–notice workshop, pursuant to Government Code
Section 11346.45, is not required because the issues addressed in the proposal are not so complex or large in number that they cannot easily be reviewed during the comment period.
Consideration of Alternatives: The department must determine that no reasonable alternative consid - ered by the department or that has otherwise been iden- tified and brought to the attention of the department would be more effective in carrying out the purpose for which the action is proposed, or would be as ef - fective as and less burdensome to affected private per- sons than the proposed action, or would be more cost– effective to affected private persons and equally effec- tive in implementing the statutory policy or other pro- visions of law.

After conducting a review for any regula - tions that would relate to or affect this area, the de - partment has concluded that these are regulations con- sistent with Elderly Parole Eligibility Date. LOCAL MANDATES This action imposes no mandates on local agencies or school districts, or a mandate which requires reim - bursement of costs or savings pursuant to Government Code Sections 17500–17630.
FISCAL IMPACT STATEMENT ● Cost or savings to any state agency: None. ● Cost to any local agency or school district that is required to be reimbursed: None. ● Other nondiscretionary cost or savings imposed on local agencies: None. ● Cost or savings in federal funding to the state: None.

SIGNIFICANT STATEWIDE ADVERSE ECONOMIC IMPACT ON BUSINESS The department has made an initial determination that the proposed regulations will not have a signifi - cant statewide adverse economic impact directly af - fecting business, including the ability of California businesses to compete with businesses in other states, because the proposed regulations place no obligations or requirements on any business. EFFECT ON SMALL BUSINESSES The department has determined that the proposed regulations will not affect small businesses.
This ac - tion has no significant adverse economic impact on small businesses because they place no obligations or requirements on any business. RESULTS OF THE ECONOMIC IMPACT ASSESSMENT The department has determined that the proposed regulation will have no effect on the creation of new, or the elimination of existing, jobs or businesses within California, or affect the expansion of businesses cur - rently doing business in California. The department has determined that the proposed regulation will have no effect on worker safety or the state’s environment.
These regulations may benefit the welfare of California residents by helping to make CDCR institutions safer for inmates, staff, and visitors. Additionally, safer in - stitutions may provide an environment more condu - cive to rehabilitation, thereby reducing recidivism.
