Practice question
A covered substantive rule is properly filed and fully published on the same day. No different lawful date or imminent-danger condition exists. The agency seeks sanctions under it ten days later, relying solely on completion of those two steps. Which Section 4 point remains?
- Filing always makes every rule immediately effective.
- Publication automatically deletes statutory waiting periods.
- Ten days always equals fifteen days.
- The default fifteen-day-from-filing effectivity requirement remains in addition to other applicable rule-making requirements.
- The agency may choose timing after imposing the sanction.
