The OUBCC's seven technical committees have been meeting over this past spring and summer to review eight different commercial codes. Four of the committees have made final presentations to the Commission with their recommendations on changes to be made as we adopt those codes. Committee presentations can be found on the Technical Committee Meeting Page of our website. A public hearing was held on January 17, 2012 at 1:00 p.m. The Commission voted to adopt the final rules for the NEC® 2011, IFGC® 2009, IMC® 2009 and IPC® 2009. Those rules were submitted to the Governor and Legislature for approval on January 24, 2012. If approved by both the Governor and Legislature, these rules will become effective this summer to late fall.
