TITLE 16. ECONOMIC REGULATION
PART 2. PUBLIC UTILITY COMMISSION OF TEXAS
CHAPTER 24. SUBSTANTIVE RULES APPLICABLE TO WATER AND SEWER SERVICE PROVIDERS
SUBCHAPTER
H.
The Public Utility Commission of Texas (commission) proposes the amendments to §24.257 relating to mapping requirements for certificate of convenience and necessity applications and §24.245 relating to revocation of a certificate of convenience and necessity or amendment of a certificate of convenience and necessity by decertification, expedited release, or streamlined expedited release. The amended rules will require an applicant to attest that it has reviewed the commission's online mapping resources--including all video files--as a necessary component of an application submission.
The commission also invites comments on the following questions:
1. Should the commission adopt remedial requirements for an applicant that fails to present adequate mapping information despite the submission of an attestation?
2. If so, what measures are appropriate? For example, should the rule require an applicant to attest to re-review of PUC mapping resources upon the commission's determination that mapping information in a previous application was deficient?
Growth Impact Statement
The agency provides the following governmental growth impact statement for the proposed rules, as required by Texas Government Code §2001.0221. The agency has determined that for each year of the first five years that the proposed rules are in effect, the following statements will apply:
(1) the proposed rules will not create a government program and will not eliminate a government program;
(2) implementation of the proposed rules will not require the creation of new employee positions and will not require the elimination of existing employee positions;
(3) implementation of the proposed rules will not require an increase and will not require a decrease in future legislative appropriations to the agency;
(4) the proposed rules will not require an increase and will not require a decrease in fees paid to the agency;
(5) the proposed rules will not create a new regulation;
(6) the proposed rules will not expand, limit, or repeal an existing regulation;
(7) the proposed rules will not change the number of individuals subject to the rule's applicability; and
(8) the proposed rules will not affect this state's economy.
Fiscal Impact on Small and Micro-Businesses and Rural Communities
There is no adverse economic effect anticipated for small businesses, micro-businesses, or rural communities as a result of implementing the proposed rules. Accordingly, no economic impact statement or regulatory flexibility analysis is required under Texas Government Code §2006.002(c).
Takings Impact Analysis
The commission has determined that the proposed rules will not be a taking of private property as defined in chapter 2007 of the Texas Government Code.
Fiscal Impact on State and Local Government
Tracy Montes, Director, Mapping, has determined that for the first five-year period the proposed rules are in effect, there will be no fiscal implications for the state or for units of local government under Texas Government Code §2001.024(a)(4) as a result of enforcing or administering the sections.
Public Benefits
Ms. Montes has determined that for each year of the first five years the proposed sections are in effect the public benefit anticipated as a result of enforcing the sections will be enhanced efficiency in processing applications that involve territorial boundaries associated with water and wastewater service. There will be no probable economic cost to persons required to comply with the rules under Texas Government Code §2001.024(a)(5).
Local Employment Impact Statement
For each year of the first five years the proposed sections are in effect, there should be no effect on a local economy; therefore, no local employment impact statement is required under Texas Government Code §2001.022.
Costs to Regulated Persons
Texas Government Code §2001.0045(b) does not apply to this rulemaking because the commission is expressly excluded under subsection §2001.0045(c)(7).

PART 4. TEXAS DEPARTMENT OF LICENSING AND REGULATION
CHAPTER 61. COMBATIVE SPORTS
16 TAC §61.43, §61.109The Texas Department of Licensing and Regulation (Department) proposes an amendment to an existing rule at 16 Texas Administrative Code (TAC), Chapter 61, §61.43; and a new rule at §61.109, regarding the Combative Sports program. These proposed changes are referred to as "proposed rules."
EXPLANATION OF AND JUSTIFICATION FOR THE RULES
The rules under 16 TAC, Chapter 61, implement Texas Occupations Code, Chapter 2052, Combative Sports.
The proposed rules add regulations for the combative sport discipline of bare-knuckle boxing. The proposed rules outline and describe parameters and conditions under which contestants are evaluated and approved and by which bare-knuckle boxing contests will be officiated, judged, and decided. The proposed rules identify prohibited actions that could result in disciplinary measures being taken against the contestant by the referee and Department. Finally, the proposed rules allow for the use of instant replay technology in defined circumstances to confirm a contest decision. The proposed rules are necessary to regulate the discipline of bare-knuckle boxing in Texas.
The proposed rules also correct a typographical error in the concentration of adrenaline approved for use in a contestant's corner.
SECTION-BY-SECTION SUMMARY
The proposed rules amend §61.43(i)(1), correcting a typographical error in the concentration of adrenaline approved for use during a contest.
The proposed rules add §61.109(a), stating that all rules apply to bare-knuckle boxing except §§61.106(c) - (f), 61.107, 61.108, and 61.110-61.112. If there is any conflict between §61.109 and other rule language, §61.109 controls.
The proposed rules add §61.109(b), stating that amateur contestants are not allowed to participate in bare-knuckle boxing contests.
The proposed rules add §61.109(c), identifying the maximum number of rounds and minutes of competition for both males and females.
The proposed rules add §61.109(d), describing how the hands of contestants shall be wrapped and identifying prohibited actions during the wrapping of contestants' hands.
The proposed rules add §61.109(e), describing how contestants may dress for a contest and identifying what protective gear must be worn. Contestants' hair must be secured in a manner that does not affect either contestant.
The proposed rules add §61.109(f), stating that contests will be scored by three judges on a ten-point "must" system.
The proposed rules add §61.109(g), defining the possible outcomes of a contest and describing the specific decisions that will be declared in certain circumstances.
The proposed rules add §61.109(h), describing the technique that is permitted in this combative sport discipline.
The proposed rules add §61.109(i), listing illegal actions which can lead to negative consequences both in the contest and after administrative action by the Department.
The proposed rules add §61.109(j), instituting the use of instant replay technology for this discipline, how it can be used, in what circumstances it may be used, and what decisions can result from its use.
FISCAL IMPACT ON STATE AND LOCAL GOVERNMENT
Tony Couvillon, Policy Research and Budget Analyst, has determined that for each year of the first five years the proposed rules are in effect, there will be additional costs to the State of $8,800.00 per year.
TDLR contracts with third-party individuals to serve as inspectors at each event. The average number of inspectors contracted for each event of the size expected for bare-knuckle boxing events is 10, at an average cost of $222 per contractor per event. It is anticipated there will be an average of four bare-knuckle boxing events per year for the first five years.
Tony Couvillon, Policy Research and Budget Analyst, has determined that for each year of the first five years the proposed rules are in effect, there will be increases in revenue to the State of $121,300 per year.
It is anticipated at this time that there will be four bare-knuckle boxing events conducted in Texas or broadcast each year of the first five years that will generate the maximum gross receipts tax a promoter must submit to the State for the event, which is $30,000 per event. It is believed there could be additional local events each year, but this number cannot currently be determined.
It is estimated that there would be approximately 20 new contestant license holders at the first bare-knuckle boxing event, and approximately 15 new contestant license holders for each subsequent event, for a total of 65 contestants in the first year and a similar number of additional contestants in each subsequent year. The number of contestants is not expected to increase significantly in any year since the overall average number of contestant licenses issued in combative sports stays somewhat consistent year-to-year. The application fee for a contestant license is $20 for a new or renewal license. Therefore, the additional revenue from licenses issued in the first year would be $1,300 in each of the first five years the proposed rules are in effect.
Mr. Couvillon has determined that for each year of the first five years the proposed rules are in effect, enforcing or administering the proposed rules does not have foreseeable implications relating to costs or revenues of local governments.
LOCAL EMPLOYMENT IMPACT STATEMENT
Because Mr. Couvillon has determined that the proposed rules will not affect a local economy, the agency is not required to prepare a local employment impact statement under Texas Government Code §2001.022.
PUBLIC BENEFITS
Mr. Couvillon also has determined that for each year of the first five-year period the proposed rules are in effect, the public benefit will be ensuring the integrity and safety of bare-knuckle boxing events while allowing this rapidly growing discipline to stage events in Texas. The public will also benefit from the additional gross receipt takes generated from these events, which will add to the state's general revenue fund.
PROBABLE ECONOMIC COSTS TO PERSONS REQUIRED TO COMPLY WITH PROPOSAL
Mr. Couvillon has determined that for each year of the first five-year period the proposed rules are in effect, there are no anticipated economic costs to persons who are required to comply with the proposed rules.
FISCAL IMPACT ON SMALL BUSINESSES, MICRO-BUSINESSES, AND RURAL COMMUNITIES
There will be no adverse economic effect on small businesses, micro-businesses, or rural communities as a result of the proposed rules. Because the agency has determined that the proposed rule will have no adverse economic effect on small businesses, micro-businesses, or rural communities, preparation of an Economic Impact Statement and a Regulatory Flexibility Analysis, as detailed under Texas Government Code §2006.002, is not required.
ONE-FOR-ONE REQUIREMENT FOR RULES WITH A FISCAL IMPACT
The proposed rules do not have a fiscal note that imposes a cost on regulated persons, including another state agency, a special district, or a local government. Therefore, the agency is not required to take any further action under Texas Government Code §2001.0045.
GOVERNMENT GROWTH IMPACT STATEMENT
Pursuant to Texas Government Code §2001.0221, the agency provides the following Government Growth Impact Statement for the proposed rules. For each year of the first five years the proposed rules will be in effect, the agency has determined the following:
1. The proposed rules do not create or eliminate a government program.
2. Implementation of the proposed rules does not require the creation of new employee positions or the elimination of existing employee positions.
3. Implementation of the proposed rules does not require an increase or decrease in future legislative appropriations to the agency.
4. The proposed rules do not require an increase or decrease in fees paid to the agency.
5. The proposed rules create a new regulation. The proposed rules add bare-knuckle boxing as a combative sports discipline to be regulated by the Department and create standards for the conduct of bare-knuckle boxing events.
6. The proposed rules do not expand, limit, or repeal an existing regulation.
7. The proposed rules increase or decrease the number of individuals subject to the rules' applicability. The proposed rules increase the number of individuals subject to its applicability by recognizing bare-knuckle boxing as a combative sports discipline. The creation of this new regulation will apply to any additional persons who participate in bare-knuckle boxing.
8. The proposed rules do not positively or adversely affect this state's economy.
TAKINGS IMPACT ASSESSMENT
The Department has determined that no private real property interests are affected by the proposed rules and the proposed rules do not restrict, limit, or impose a burden on an owner's rights to his or her private real property that would otherwise exist in the absence of government action. As a result, the proposed rules do not constitute a taking or require a takings impact assessment under Texas Government Code §2007.043.
PUBLIC COMMENTS
Comments on the proposed rules may be submitted electronically on the Department's website at: https://ga.tdlr.texas.gov:1443/form/gcerules; by facsimile to (512) 475-3032; or by mail to Shamica Mason, Legal Assistant, Texas Department of Licensing and Regulation, P.O. Box 12157, Austin, Texas 78711. The deadline for comments is 30 days after publication in the Texas Register .
STATUTORY AUTHORITY
