Regulation Authority:
GLRI 46-23 et. seq.
Purpose and Reason:
The Energy Amendments regulations were included as part of the Coastal Resources Management Plan (CRMP) and adopted by Council in 1978 and subsequently amended in February 1982 to implement regulations and procedures for managing energy facility siting and related impacts to the coastal environment. In 2016, the legislature passed an amendment to R.I. Gen. Laws § 42-35-5(b) that required the Secretary of State to oversee the publication of an updated uniform code of state regulations, the Rhode Island Code of Regulations (RICR). Desirable regulatory elements of the Energy Amendments (formerly Section 600 of the CRMP) are being codified within the RICR Red Book within § 1.3.1(H) and the original Energy Amendments will be repealed in their entirety.
