PART 617--TRADE ADJUSTMENT ASSISTANCE FOR WORKERS UNDER THE TRADE ACT OF 1974--Table of Contents
 
         Subpart G--Administration by Applicable State Agencies
 
Sec. 617.54  State agency rulemaking.

    A State agency may establish supplemental procedures not 
inconsistent with the Act or this part 617 or procedures prescribed by 
the Department to further effective administration of this part 617. The 
exact text of such supplemental procedure or procedures, certified as 
accurate by a responsible official, employee, or counsel of the State 
agency, shall be submitted to the Department, on a form supplied by the 
Department. No supplemental procedure shall be effective unless and 
until approved by the Department. Approval may be granted on a temporary 
basis, not to exceed 90 days, in cases of administrative necessity. On 
reasonable notice to a State agency, approval of a supplemental 
procedure may be withdrawn at any time. If public notice and opportunity 
for hearing would be required under a State law for adoption of a 
similar or analogous procedure involving UI, such public notice and 
opportunity for hearing shall be afforded by the State agency as to the 
supplemental procedure.
