Fees
Regulation No. 16A-4634 (# 3277)

 On October 29, 2020, the Independent Regulatory Review Commission (Commission) received this proposed regulation from the State Board of Dentistry (Board). This rulemaking amends 49 Pa. Code Chapter 33 § 33.3 and rescinds § 33.339. The proposed regulation was published in the November 14, 2020 Pennsylvania Bulletin with a public comment period ending on December 14, 2020. The final-form regulation was submitted to the Commission on July 7, 2022.

 The rulemaking provides for graduated application and biennial renewal fee increases for several licenses and permits issued by the Board, including dentists, dental hygienists, dental assistants, anesthesia permits, dental education programs, and facilities. It also rescinds Section 33.339 (relating to fees for issuance of permits).

 We have determined this regulation is consistent with the statutory authority of the Board (63 P.S. § 122(o)) and the intention of the General Assembly. Having considered all of the other criteria of the Regulatory Review Act, we find promulgation of this regulation is in the public interest.

By Order of the Commission:

 This regulation is approved.
