Historic Rulemaking

Minnesota Statute chapter. 14 (Administrative Procedures) requires the EQB to make an affirmative presentation of facts establishing the need for and reasonableness of the rules as proposed. In general terms, this means that the EQB must not be arbitrary or capricious in proposing rules. However, to the extent that need and reasonableness are separate, “need” has come to mean that a problem exists that requires administrative attention, and “reasonableness” means that the solution proposed by the EQB is appropriate.
