22.05.030 Emergency Rule

If the Tribal Council finds that an imminent peril to the Tribal health, safety, or welfare requires adoption of a rule upon less notice than provided in this chapter and states in writing its reasons for that finding, it may proceed, without prior notice or hearing or upon any abbreviated notice and hearing it deems practicable, to adopt an emergency rule. The rule will take effect immediately upon adoption and may last for a period not longer than one hundred twenty (120) days, from the date of its filing with the Tribal Council Secretary but the adoption of an identical rule pursuant to the procedures provided in this section is not precluded. Authority to promulgate an emergency rule will not be delegated by the Tribal Council to an agency.
