Emergency Rules and the Online Administrative Code

In January a great new feature was added to the online Administrative Code. When an emergency rule is in place that may affect the chapter being viewed, a highly visible alert box will appear at the top of the page. The emergency rule is linked within the alert box. Simply click on the emergency rule link to read the text of the rule.

This feature is only available in the clickable (HTML) version of the online Administrative Code. Emergency rule alerts will not appear if you are viewing the PDF version of a chapter. All current and expired emergency rules are also available in a separate section of the WI State Legislature's document site.

The next time you are researching an Administrative Code section, pull up the chapter from the current, clickable version and check for an emergency rule alert.
