opportunity for a public hearing before the commission adopts a rule
or amendment if a hearing is requested by:
(1) at least twenty-five (25) persons who submit comments
independently of each other;
(2) a governmental subdivision or agency; or
(3) a duly appointed person in an association that has at least
twenty-five (25) members.

hearing.
(d) The hearing shall be conducted in a manner that provides each
person who wishes to comment a fair and reasonable opportunity to
comment orally or in writing.

on the scheduled hearing date if the hearing was not held, the
commission shall consider all written and oral comments received.
(h) The commission shall, by a majority vote of all members, take
final action on the proposed rule and shall determine the effective date
of the rule, if any, based on the rulemaking record and the full text of
the rule.
(i) If no written notice of intent to attend the public hearing by
interested parties is received, the commission may proceed with
promulgation of the proposed rule without a public hearing.
