AZ HB2115

Amends Arizona Revised Statutes section 41-1026.01 to allow delegating agencies to adopt, amend or terminate delegation agreements as emergency measures without public notice and participation requirements.

Prohibits emergency adoption of delegation agreements if the emergency situation was created by the agency's delay or inaction and could have been prevented through timely compliance with public notice requirements, unless substantial evidence shows failure to act will result in imminent peril to public health, safety or welfare.

Requires agencies to file a summary of emergency delegation agreements with the secretary of state, who must publish it in the next register, and provide contact information for questions.

Limits emergency delegation agreements to 180 days after filing with the secretary of state, renewable for up to two additional 180-day periods if the agency determines the emergency still exists and has begun the public comment process.

Defines "emergency" as a situation requiring immediate adoption, amendment or termination of a delegation agreement for preservation of public health, safety or welfare where public notice and participation requirements are impracticable.
