102-A - Small Business Regulation Guides.

 102-a.  Small  business regulation guides. 1. For each rule or group
  of related rules which significantly  impact  a  substantial  number  of
  small  businesses,  the  agency which adopted the rule shall post on its
  website one or more guides explaining the actions a small  business  may
  take  to  comply  with  such  rule  or  group  of  rules  if  the agency
  determines, in conjunction with the division for  small  business,  that
  such  guide or guides will assist small businesses in complying with the
  rule, and shall  designate  each  such  posting  as  a  "small  business
  regulation  guide". The guide shall explain the actions a small business
  may take to comply with a rule or group of rules, identify  any  sources
  of  information  or  assistance  available  to facilitate small business
  regulatory compliance, and, where appropriate,  include  information  on
  (a)  the  most  common  regulatory  violations that small businesses are
  cited for by the agency and (b) any actions that  small  businesses  can
  reasonably  undertake  to  minimize  or  prevent  the occurrence of such
  violations.
2. The agency shall, in its sole discretion, taking into  account  the
  subject matter of the rule and the language of relevant statutes, ensure
  that  the  guide is written using sufficiently plain language that it is
  likely to be understood by affected  small  businesses.  Agencies  shall
  cooperate  with the division for small business and other state agencies
  in developing such guides. The division for small business shall oversee
  and coordinate the preparation of such small business regulation  guides
  by  agencies.  An agency shall provide the division at such times and in
  such format as the division may request with (a) statistical information
  on  the  frequency  of  violations  of  various  regulations  by   small
  businesses  and  (b) information and analysis regarding actions that can
  reasonably be undertaken by small businesses to minimize or prevent  the
  occurrence of such violations.
