ORDERS:
ORDER OF DISMISSAL
In the above-captioned matter, a regulatory hearing was scheduled for 10:00 a.m. on Wednesday, September 21, 2005, at the South Carolina Administrative Law Court in Columbia, South Carolina.
ALC Rule 45 requires an agency proposing a regulation to provide a statement, at least ten days before the scheduled hearing date, confirming the need for a hearing on the regulation pursuant to S.C. Code Ann. § 1-23-110 (2005) because a request for a hearing was made by twenty-five persons, a governmental subdivision or agency, or an association having not less than twenty-five members. In the instant matter, the South Carolina Department of Revenue advised this tribunal, by a letter dated September 2, 2005, that no comments or requests for a hearing were submitted to the Department regarding the proposed regulation identified above. Thus, pursuant to Section 1-23-110(A)(3), it is not necessary to hold a regulatory hearing in this matter.
IT IS THEREFORE ORDERED that the hearing on the proposed regulation identified above scheduled for September 21, 2005, at 10:00 a.m. is hereby CANCELED and this matter is DISMISSED.
AND IT IS SO ORDERED.
