READER’S GUIDE TO THEPENNSYLVANIA BULLETINAND PENNSYLVANIA CODE

Pennsylvania BulletinThe Pennsylvania Bulletin is the official gazette of

the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania. It is publishedevery week and includes a table of contents. Acumulative subject matter index is published quar-terly.

The Pennsylvania Bulletin serves several pur-poses. First, it is the temporary supplement to thePennsylvania Code, which is the official codificationof agency rules and regulations and other statuto-rily authorized documents. Changes in the codifiedtext, whether by adoption, amendment, repeal oremergency action must be published in the Pennsyl-vania Bulletin. Further, agencies proposing changesto the codified text do so in the PennsylvaniaBulletin.

Second, the Pennsylvania Bulletin also publishes:Governor’s Executive Orders; State Contract No-tices; Summaries of Enacted Statutes; Statewideand Local Court Rules; Attorney General Opinions;Motor Carrier Applications before the Public UtilityCommission; Applications and Actions before theDepartment of Environmental Protection; Orders ofthe Independent Regulatory Review Commission;and other documents authorized by law.

The text of certain documents published in thePennsylvania Bulletin is the only valid and enforce-able text. Courts are required to take judicial noticeof the Pennsylvania Bulletin.

Adoption, Amendment or Repeal ofRegulations

Generally an agency wishing to adopt, amend orrepeal regulations must first publish in the Pennsyl-vania Bulletin a Notice of Proposed Rulemaking.There are limited instances where the agency mayomit the proposal step; they still must publish theadopted version.

The Notice of Proposed Rulemaking contains thefull text of the change, the agency contact person, afiscal note required by law and background for theaction.

The agency then allows sufficient time for publiccomment before taking final action. An adoptedproposal must be published in the Pennsylvania

Bulletin before it can take effect. If the agencywishes to adopt changes to the Notice of ProposedRulemaking to enlarge the scope, they must re-propose.

Citation to the Pennsylvania BulletinCite material in the Pennsylvania Bulletin by

volume number and page number. Example: Volume1, Pennsylvania Bulletin, page 801 (short form: 1Pa.B. 801).

Pennsylvania CodeThe Pennsylvania Code is the official codification

of rules and regulations issued by Commonwealthagencies and other statutorily authorized docu-ments. The Pennsylvania Bulletin is the temporarysupplement to the Pennsylvania Code, printingchanges as soon as they occur. These changes arethen permanently codified by the PennsylvaniaCode Reporter, a monthly, loose-leaf supplement.

The Pennsylvania Code is cited by title numberand section number. Example: Title 10 Pennsylva-nia Code, § 1.1 (short form: 10 Pa.Code § 1.1).

Under the Pennsylvania Code codification system,each regulation is assigned a unique number bytitle and section. Titles roughly parallel the organi-zation of Commonwealth government. Title 1 Penn-sylvania Code lists every agency and its correspond-ing Code title location.

How to Find DocumentsSearch for your area of interest in the Pennsylva-

nia Code.The Pennsylvania Code contains, as Finding Aids,

subject indexes for the complete Code and for eachindividual title, a list of Statutes Used As Authorityfor Adopting Rules and a list of annotated cases.Source Notes give you the history of the documents.To see if there have been recent changes, not yetcodified, check the List of Pennsylvania Code Chap-ters Affected in the most recent issue of the Penn-sylvania Bulletin.

The Pennsylvania Bulletin also publishes a quar-terly List of Pennsylvania Code Sections Affectedwhich lists the regulations in numerical order,followed by the citation to the Pennsylvania Bulle-tin in which the change occurred.

Printing FormatMaterial proposed to be added to an existing rule or regulation is printed in bold face and material proposed to be

deleted from such a rule or regulation is enclosed in brackets [ ] and printed in bold face. Asterisks indicate ellipsisof Pennsylvania Code text retained without change. Proposed new or additional regulations are printed in ordinary styleface.

Fiscal NotesSection 612 of The Administrative Code of 1929 (71 P. S. § 232) requires that the Office of Budget prepare a fiscal

note for regulatory actions and administrative procedures of the administrative departments, boards, commissions orauthorities receiving money from the State Treasury stating whether the proposed action or procedure causes a lossof revenue or an increase in the cost of programs for the Commonwealth or its political subdivisions; that the fiscal notebe published in the Pennsylvania Bulletin at the same time as the proposed change is advertised; and that the fiscalnote shall provide the following information: (1) the designation of the fund out of which the appropriation providing forexpenditures under the action or procedure shall be made; (2) the probable cost for the fiscal year the program isimplemented; (3) projected cost estimate of the program for each of the five succeeding fiscal years; (4) fiscal history ofthe program for which expenditures are to be made; (5) probable loss of revenue for the fiscal year of itsimplementation; (6) projected loss of revenue from the program for each of the five succeeding fiscal years; (7) line item,if any, of the General Appropriation Act or other appropriation act out of which expenditures or losses of Commonwealthfunds shall occur as a result of the action or procedures; (8) recommendation, if any, of the Secretaryof the Budget and the reasons therefor.

The required information is published in the foregoing order immediately following the proposed change to which itrelates; the omission of an item indicates that the agency text of the fiscal note states that there is no informationavailable with respect thereto. In items (3) and (6) information is set forth for the first through fifth fiscal years; in thatorder, following the year the program is implemented, which is stated. In item (4) information is set forth for thecurrent and two immediately preceding years, in that order. In item (8) the recommendation, if any, made by theSecretary of Budget is published with the fiscal note. See 4 Pa. Code § 7.231 et seq. Where ‘‘no fiscal impact’’ ispublished, the statement means no additional cost or revenue loss to the Commonwealth or its local political subdivisionis intended.

Watercourse crossing methods consist of 53 wet opencuts and 15 flume pipes. The West Branch Clarion Rivercrossing is proposed as a 50-foot wet open cut method.The East Branch Clarion River is proposed as a 35-footwet open cut method. A total of 3,500 lineal feet ofwatercourse in Elk County will be temporarily impacted.

Of the 63 wetland crossings, 34 are considered excep-tional value wetlands. Two exceptional value wetland

crossings are 700 feet long each. The longestnonexceptional wetland crossing is 1,800 feet long. Allwetland crossings will be by wet open cut method result-ing in a total temporary impact of 16.08 acres of excep-tional value and nonexceptional wetland.

Approximately 25.4 miles (77.2%) of the alignment inElk County follows established right-of-ways. A majorityof this project traverses the Allegheny National Forest.The Allegheny National Forest is identified as high ormoderate quality Myotis sodalis (Indiana Bat) summerhabitat. This project will create a new right-of-way acrossa portion of Elk State Forest.

Prior to construction of the 36-inch pipeline, Indepen-dence will abandon-in-place or remove various NationalFuel Gas Supply Corporation gas pipelines along theconstruction right-of-way in Elk County. This process willoccur in two sections from Independence milepost 316.2 to324.5 through Forest County and starting again in ElkCounty at Independence milepost 325.8 to 336.1, alongexisting, maintained right-of-ways through MillstoneTownship and Highland Township.

Initially, all watercourse and wetland pipeline crossingswill be abandoned in-place but temporary stream andwetland crossings will be constructed and remain in placefor up to 60 days until installation of the new 36-inchpipeline. All abandoned-in-place watercourse and wetlandcrossings not in direct alignment with the new 36-inchpipeline will remain abandoned-in-place and not be re-moved. At the time of installation, all watercourse cross-ings under 10 feet in width and all wetland crossings indirect alignment of the new 36-inch pipeline will beremoved and the new 36-inch pipeline will then beimmediately installed into this same trench. Allabandoned-in-place watercourse crossings 10 feet orgreater in width will remain in place.

The first section, from Independence milepost 316.2 to318.5, will be associated with the existing National FuelGas Supply Corporation ‘‘C-Line’’ and ‘‘K-197 Line’’, eachare 12-inches in diameter. The watersheds traversedinclude Millstone Creek (HQ-CWF, TSF) and Gregg Run(HQ-CWF, TSF). A total of three watercourses will beimpacted.

HOUSING FINANCEAGENCY

Homeownership Choice Demonstration Program;Request for Proposals

The Housing Finance Agency (Agency) announces arequest for proposals (RFP) to provide funds for thedevelopment of single family homes, for purchase, inurban communities.Background

After several decades of booming suburban develop-ment, there has been a recent increase in the amount ofinterest surrounding land-use decisions and growth. Anumber of constituencies have espoused the position that‘‘suburban sprawl,’’ if unaddressed, could have negativeenvironmental, economic and societal consequences.These groups argue that unless alternatives are identi-fied, unchecked growth could cost the Commonwealthmillions in public infrastructure dollars; continue to con-centrate poor and minority families in urban areas withlimited access to jobs or schools that provide qualityeducation; and continue to weaken the sense of commu-nity across this Commonwealth.

In July of 1997, Governor Tom Ridge responded toincreasing concern about current municipal land-use pat-terns with the establishment of the 21st Century Envi-ronmental Commission (Commission). The Commission’smandate was to develop and help implement environmen-tal strategies designed to provide a better environmentfor future generations without inhibiting their ability toprosper. Further, the Commission was charged with help-ing government to assert its role as an efficient capablesteward of the environment, establish policies and prac-tices that effectively support the goals of environmentalquality, personal and community well-being, and economicprosperity.

The Commission issued a final report in September1998 which detailed a number of key strategies sustain-ing this Commonwealth as a desirable place to live, workand raise a family. One of these recommendations wasthe revitalization of this Commonwealth’s older urbancommunities to combat suburban and exurban sprawl.The report strongly states that to counteract suburbansprawl, urban places must be economically and environ-mentally healthy and desirable places to live.

An important component of Agency’s mission is to makethis Commonwealth a better place to live while fosteringcommunity and economic development. To achieve thismission, the Agency recognizes that affordablehomeownership is a vehicle for both increasing a geo-graphic area’s economic diversity and marketability. Thepresence of long-term investors (that is, homebuyers)builds optimism and hope in a community and signalsthat urban neighborhoods hold promise for becominghealthier, more attractive places in which to raise fami-lies, shop and work.

The challenge is to craft strategies that encourage olderurban communities to become competitive with suburbanand rural areas. While increasing urban homeownershipopportunities is a step in the right direction, significanthurdles remain before urban neighborhoods become at-tractive alternatives for homebuyers. The field of commu-nity development, including comprehensive communityrevitalization initiatives, offers an opportunity tostrengthen and complement urban homeownership ef-

forts. An urban homeownership choice demonstrationprogram would be consistent with and complement theRidge administration’s effort to reconfigure the dynamicsof economic growth through the Keystone OpportunityEnterprise Zones.

The Homeownership Choice Demonstration Program(HCDP)

For urban areas to become more attractive, it is clearthat a significant undertaking is required. This effortshould seek to both attract additional homeowners tourban areas, while simultaneously addressing structuralobstacles that make the urban development marketplaceless than attractive. To this end the Agency’s Board hasset aside $5 million to sponsor a demonstration programthat will encourage market-sensitive and innovative landuse planning concepts in urban areas, as well as work inconcert with community revitalization efforts. The focusof the program is the development of new homeownershipopportunities and the transformation of distressed urbanneighborhoods into attractive places to live.

The Guiding Principles for the HCDP include thefollowing:

Link to comprehensive approaches. Althoughhomeownership is an important part of any neighborhoodrevitalization agenda, it is not sufficient by itself totransform distressed urban areas. To achieve measurableimpact, projects need to be conceived within the context ofoverall strategic plans, designed to produce significantscale. Recognizing that the resources that could reason-ably be brought to bear through this demonstration wouldbe insufficient to transform entire neighborhoods, theAgency intends to maximize potential impact by coordi-nating the demonstration with efforts that seek to ad-dress some other factors that contribute to negativeurban environments (that is, unemployment, crime, lackof green or open space, and the like). The HCDP providesan opportunity for the Agency to work collaboratively,comprehensively and efficiently with public and privatesector partners undertaking comprehensive neighborhoodrevitalization projects.

Transfer cost-effective homebuilding skills to urban ar-eas. For-profit homebuilders operate primarily in thesuburbs. However, the skills and knowledge that thesehomebuilders often possess are much needed in urbanareas. The HCDP seeks to make urban homebuildingsufficiently attractive to transfer to urban areas theefficiencies and techniques which enable builders to pro-duce low-cost, high-quality suburban homes. To ensurethe transfer of skills beyond the program, for-profitdevelopers should work in partnership with local non-profit developers or Community Development Corpora-tions (CDCs). These nonprofits should already be engagedin the types of comprehensive revitalization activities thatare needed to complement a homeownership initiative. Toencourage partnership and learning at the municipallevel, applications for funding through the programshould be a joint effort between a for-profit builder, anonprofit and the local government. To ensure that localresources are better focused on the demonstration pro-gram in that area, municipalities are limited to oneapplication.

Increase homeownership opportunities and choices inurban areas. Currently, there exists a homeownership gapthat divides the suburbs from the cities. Approximately73.7% of suburban families own their homes, comparedwith just 50.5% of families in central cities. A centralfocus of the program is the development of homeowner-

NOTICES 2093


ship opportunities in urban areas. Further, these opportu-nities must be structured so as to be viewed as attractivechoices and potential alternatives to homeownership op-portunities in the suburbs. To increase the overall num-ber of homeowners, use of program funding is to bedirected to producing homes and homeownership opportu-nities.

Encourage diversity of homeownership. An importantelement of strengthening urban neighborhoods is reduc-ing economic and social isolation. While 73.5% of whitefamilies in America are homeowners, only 45.5% of Latinofamilies and 47% of African American families own theirhomes. Applications must include an Affirmative FairHousing Marketing Plan.

Build mixed-income communities. While the programwill pursue the development of affordable housing oppor-tunities for first time home buyers, these projects shouldbe largely indistinguishable from neighboring market-rateproperties. In this manner, the properties should attracthome buyers with a wide range of incomes. In the eventthat local matching support has certain restrictions on itsuse, the HCDP funds may be designated to target low-,moderate- and middle-income families.

Develop at scale. To have an impact on an urban area’seconomic and social viability, it will be necessary toproduce a demonstrable critical mass of revitalizationwithin small, select neighborhoods. By ‘‘critical mass’’ ismeant the achievement of a scale of development suffi-cient to generate spontaneous reinvestment in a commu-nity. Therefore, the HCDP will consider efforts that wouldachieve the development of no less than 50 homeowner-ship units in municipalities with a population of 50,000 ormore and no less than 25 homeownership units in thosemunicipalities with a population of 50,000 or less.

Focus on new construction. New homes transformneighborhoods by attracting the residents, businesses andjobs that urban areas need to reverse decades of decline.An emphasis is placed on the construction of new homes.

Focus on strategic locations. The HCDP proposalsshould target those areas within municipalities of asizable population which have experienced significantdepopulation while their surrounding suburban communi-ties have experienced significant growth.

Leverage Agency funds. To extend the impact of theAgency’s funding, support through the program must bematched on a 1:1 basis by local applicants. Of thisamount, a minimum of 50% of the funding should becontributed by local government. The Agency intends toprovide its funding as a loan, with flexible repayment anddeferred interest provisions. Applicants are encouraged todevise innovative methods to secure and repay agencyfunds.

Insure long term affordability. The energy efficiency ofthe housing developed is an important factor in maintain-ing affordable operating costs. Applicants must include adescription of the energy efficiency standards and specifi-cations which they will meet. Applicants are encouragedto be innovative in the use of renewable energy technolo-gies, or such other energy efficiencies as will facilitatelong term affordability.

Increase net investment. This demonstration is intendedto in a small, yet ambitious, manner counteract somemarket inefficiencies and is not intended to address theviability of public housing and HUD’s efforts to shift thecosts for the operation of such public housing units. Thusprojects which are a part of, or result from, publichousing restructuring or mixed finance applications will

not be considered for participation in this demonstration.An outcome of the program should be a net increase inlocal affordable housing investment.

Requirements

The HCDP Development

The design of the proposed housing development mustaddress the Guiding Principles of the HCDP.

1. The HCDP proposal must detail plans for the devel-opment of no less than 50 homeownership units inmunicipalities with a population of 50,000 or more and noless than 25 homeownership units in those municipalitieswith a population of 50,000 or less.

2. Developments need to be conceived within the con-text of comprehensive municipal strategic plan, designedto produce significant scale.

3. The comprehensive municipal strategic plan shouldspecify plans for economic development and include otherphysical or public safety improvements proposed or inplace, such as sidewalks, street lights and the proximityto or availability of other community services and ameni-ties such as transportation, schools, shopping areas andparks, and the like.

The Process

The process is designed to include 2 phases. The first isthe application phase. Proposals must be received by theAgency no later than 5 p.m. on Friday, June 30, 2000.

The second is the evaluation phase. The Agency willevaluate all proposals and inform applicants of a decisionby Thursday, August 31, 2000.

The Agency monitoring and municipal reporting re-quirements will be based upon the use of HCDP funds.

• Although the Agency will have mortgage funding avail-able for those purchasers who qualify for the Agency’ssingle family loan programs, mortgage funding throughthe Agency is not a requirement.

Note: One qualifying factor is that the purchaser be afirst time home buyer, unless the municipality is in adesignated target county—then the purchaser need not bea first time home buyer to qualify for the Agency funding.

Decision factors

Funding decisions will be based upon the GuidingPrinciples enumerated in the program description and thecriteria set forth in the Development and Proposal Re-quirement sections of this RFP.

Although all criteria must be addressed and all will beevaluated, priority will be given to those proposals dem-onstrating a high degree of municipal participation, sup-port and leveraging of funds. Proposals that demonstratea substantial positive overall effect on the neighborhood/community, build upon the existing network of commu-nity organizations, programs and services, build mixed-income communities and/or are evaluated to be a vitalpart of a comprehensive economic development plan willalso be considered more favorably.

Another significant factor is site control. Those projectsexhibiting the greatest degree of site control, all elsebeing equal, will be viewed as being most ready toproceed and therefore receive favorable consideration inthe competitive evaluation.

Additionally, consideration will be given to the experi-ence and previous success of the partners’ prior develop-ments. The Agency recognizes that in some areas of theCommonwealth, due to the lack of experienced nonprofits,home builders may have to partner with less experiencednonprofit partners.

We submit for your consideration the following objec-tions and recommendations regarding this regulation.Section 5.1(h) and (i) of the Regulatory Review Act (71P. S. § 745.5a(h) and (i)) list the criteria IRRC must useto determine if the regulation is in the public interest.The State Real Estate Commission (Commission) mustrespond to these Comments when it submits the finalregulation. If the final regulation is not delivered byMarch 6, 2002, the regulation will be deemed withdrawn.

1. Section 35.201. Definitions—Consistency with thestatute.This section proposes to amend an existing definition

and add ten new definitions of terms, which are alsodefined in The Real Estate Licensing Act (act) (63 P. S.§ 455.201). Only the definition of ‘‘consumer’’ is identicalto the definition in the act; the remainder are not.

We object to the definitions in the regulation whichdiffer from the definitions in the act. The Commissionshould reference the statutory definitions in section455.201 of the act. If the Commission does not referencethe statutory definitions of these terms in the finalregulation, it should justify the changes to the followingdefinitions.Agency relationship

This definition refers to a ‘‘broker of record or licenseesemployed by a broker of record.’’ The act refers to the‘‘broker or licensees in the employ of the broker.’’ Theterm in the proposed regulation also refers to a ‘‘con-sumer who becomes a principal.’’ The act refers to a‘‘consumer of real estate services.’’Buyer agent

This definition refers to a ‘‘licensee who enters into anagency relationship with a buyer/tenant.’’ The act refersto a ‘‘consumer buyer of real estate’’ instead of a ‘‘buyer/tenant.’’Designated agent

This term refers to one or more licensees designated bythe ‘‘broker of record,’’ while the act refers to an ‘‘employ-ing broker.’’ The term in the proposed regulation alsorefers to licensees ‘‘employed by the broker of record,’’while the act refers to licensees ‘‘within the broker’semploy.’’

Dual agent

This term is defined as ‘‘a licensee who acts as an agentfor the buyer/tenant and seller/landlord in the sametransaction.’’ The act defines the term as ‘‘a licensee whoacts as an agent for the buyer and seller, or lessee andlandlord, in the same transaction.’’

Listing broker

This term is defined as ‘‘a broker of record who hasentered into a written agreement with a seller/landlord tomarket property as a seller’s agent, dual agent or trans-action licensee.’’ The act defines the term as ‘‘a brokerengaged as a seller’s agent, dual agent or transactionlicensee to market the property of a seller/landlord forsale or lease pursuant to a written agreement with theseller/landlord.’’

Principal

This term is defined as ‘‘a consumer who has enteredinto an agency relationship with a broker of record oranother licensee employed by the broker of record.’’ Theact defines the term as ‘‘a consumer of real estate serviceswho has entered into an agency relationship with abroker.’’

Salesperson

Subsection (vii) states that a salesperson may ‘‘assist abroker in managing [or appraising] property.’’ The exist-ing definition is being amended by the deletion of thephrase ‘‘or appraising.’’ However, the remainder of sub-paragraph (vii) is inconsistent with the definition of‘‘salesperson’’ as defined in the act, because the definitiondoes not include the phrase ‘‘managing of property.’’

2096 NOTICES


Seller’s agentThis term is defined as ‘‘a licensee who enters into an

agency relationship with a seller/landlord.’’ The act de-fines the term ‘‘seller agent’’ as ‘‘any licensee who hasentered into an agency relationship with a seller of realestate.’’Subagent

This term is defined as ‘‘a licensee, not in the employ ofthe listing broker, who acts or cooperates with the listingbroker in selling property as a seller’s/landlord’s agent.’’The act defines the term as ‘‘a broker, not in the employof the listing broker, who is engaged to act for, orcooperate with, the listing broker in selling property asan agent of the seller. A subagent is deemed to have anagency relationship with the seller.’’Transaction licensee

The term is defined as ‘‘a licensee who, without enter-ing into an agency relationship with the consumer, pro-vides communications or document preparation servicesor performs other acts listed in the definition of ‘broker’or ‘salesperson’.’’ The act defines the term as ‘‘a licensedbroker or salesperson who provides communication ordocument preparation services or performs acts describedunder the definition of “broker” or “salesperson” for whicha license is required, without being an agent or advocateof the consumer.’’2. Section 35.281. Putting contracts, commitments

and agreements in writing—Clarity.Subsection (a) Valuable Consideration

This subsection states, ‘‘and a principal or consumerwho is required to pay a fee, commission or othervaluable consideration. . . .’’ What qualifies as ‘‘valuableconsideration,’’ other than monetary consideration? Forclarity, the Commission should define the term ‘‘valuableconsideration,’’ or list examples in subsection (a).Subsection (b)(1) Open Listing

This subsection contains the term ‘‘open listing.’’ Forclarity, the Commission should consider defining the termin either this section or § 35.201 (relating to definitions).Subsection (b)(3) Disclosure Statement

Subsection (b)(3) applies to licensees who provide ser-vices to the buyer/tenant, but are paid by the seller/landlord. These licensees are required to provide, andhave signed, ‘‘a written disclosure statement describingthe nature of the services and the fees to be paid.’’ Section35.331 (relating to written agreements generally) containsmuch more detailed language. These additions provide amore accurate description of the required materials. Forgreater clarity, the Commission should add a cross-reference to § 35.331 of the proposed regulation in sub-section (b)(3).3. Section 35.283. Conflict of interest—Consistency

with the statute; Clarity.

Subsection (f) Conflict of Interest

Subsection (f) requires a licensee to disclose to aprincipal any conflict of interest in a ‘‘reasonably practi-cable period of time.’’ Although the act (63 P. S.§ 455.608.1(7)) requires a licensee to ‘‘timely disclose’’ anyconflicts of interest to a consumer, the Commission shouldclarify what it considers timely disclosure. It is in theconsumer’s best interest to be notified immediately of anyconflict of interest. Therefore, we recommend that theCommission provide a definitive standard in the finalregulation for what would be considered timely.

4. Section 35.284. Preagreement disclosures to con-sumers—Clarity.

Subsection (a) Licensee DutiesThis subsection requires licensees to provide a disclo-

sure summary to ‘‘all consumers.’’ Subsection (b) requiresa licensee to provide the entire disclosure to ‘‘the con-sumer.’’ Does disclosure need to go to all consumers, orjust those interested in conducting business with thelicensee? For clarity, the Commission should use either‘‘all consumers’’ or ‘‘the consumer’’ consistently in thissection.

Additionally, there appears to be a typographical errorin subsection (a)(4). The cross reference to ‘‘§ 33.336(relating to disclosure summary)’’ is incorrect. The sectionin the proposed regulation that relates to disclosuresummary is § 35.336. This should be corrected in thefinal regulation.5. Section 35.311. Generally—Consistency with the

statute; Clarity.Subsection (d) Confidential Information

This subsection provides that ‘‘a licensee in an agencyrelationship may not knowingly, during or following,reveal or use confidential information . . .’’ For improvedclarity and consistency with section 606.1(g) of the act (63P. S. § 455.606a(g)), the Commission should add thephrase ‘‘the termination of an agency relationship’’ after‘‘during or following.’’6. Section 35.314. Dual agency—Consistency with

the statute; Clarity.

Subsection (b)(2) Licensee Duties

This subsection requires the licensee to make a goodfaith effort to find a buyer for the property and a propertyfor the buyer, ‘‘unless otherwise agreed.’’ (Emphasisadded.) However, the language in section 606.4(b)(2) ofthe act (63 P. S. § 455.606d(b)(2)) is more specific. The actrequires the agreement to be in writing. Additionally, theact states, ‘‘. . . except that a dual agent is not obligated toseek additional offers to purchase the property while it issubject to an existing contract for sale.’’ For improvedclarity and consistency with the act, the Commissionshould add the language contained in section 606.4(b)(2)of the act.

7. Section 35.315. Designated agency—Consistencywith the statute; Statutory authority.

Subsection (b) Designation

This subsection states, ‘‘Designation should take placeat the time that the parties enter into a written agree-ment.’’ (Emphasis added.) Subsections (b)(1) and (2) listcircumstances where it is permissible to designate anagent after the initial designation or after the writtenagreement is signed.

‘‘Should’’ is nonregulatory language which implies thata provision is optional. Optional provisions should beplaced in policy statements or guidance documents. Regu-lations contain mandates which have the full force andeffect of law. The Commission should replace ‘‘should’’with ‘‘shall,’’ or delete this provision.

Additionally, a commentator and the House Profes-sional Licensure Committee expressed concerns that thissubsection could be interpreted as a general consent to adesignated agency relationship. For clarity, the Commis-sion should specify that the consumer must consent to thedesignation of an agent as well as the specific agentdesignated.

NOTICES 2097


Subsection (b)(2) Renunciation of Prior Agency Relation-ship

This subsection requires the principal to renounce anyprevious agency relationship with other licensees em-ployed by the broker of record ‘‘to the exclusion of otherdesignated agents.’’ The meaning of this phrase is un-clear. We request that the Commission explain the intentof this phrase.Subsection (d) Agency Relationships

This subsection states, ‘‘The licensees employed by thebroker of record who are not designated may not have anagency relationship with either party in the transaction.’’This provision appears to be inconsistent with section 606of the act (63 P. S. § 455.606). The act provides thatlicensees employed by a broker have the same relation-ship to the consumer as the broker, except when thebroker is a dual agent and designates a licensee to actexclusively on behalf of one party. We request that theCommission explain how subsection (d) is consistent withthe act.Subsection (e) Company Policy on Designation

This subsection refers to designated agents of the‘‘consumer.’’ Since a consumer who enters into an agencyrelationship is a ‘‘principal,’’ should the term ‘‘consumer’’be replaced with ‘‘principal?’’

In addition, the Commission should clarify the meaningof ‘‘affiliated licensees’’ in this subsection.8. Section 35.331. Written agreements generally—

Consistency with the statute; Clarity.Subsection (a) Written Agreements

This subsection states that a written agreement‘‘. . . may contain the following information printed con-spicuously.’’ (Emphasis added.) ‘‘May’’ is nonregulatorylanguage that implies that a provision is optional. Fur-ther, the use of the word ‘‘may’’ appears to be inconsistentwith section 608.1 of the act (63 P. S. § 455.608a), whichuses the word ‘‘shall.’’ Therefore, the Commission shouldreplace ‘‘may’’ with ‘‘shall’’ in subsection (a).

Subsection (a)(6) Description

This subsection requires the written agreement toprovide ‘‘a description of the licensee’s conflicts of interestand a method whereby the licensee will disclose futureconflicts.’’ This requirement is not clear. What is intendedwhen the Commission requires a licensee to describe ‘‘amethod whereby the licensee will disclose future con-flicts’’? Section 608.1(7) of the act (63 P. S. § 455.608a(7))requires a licensee to include a statement which notifiesconsumers of the ‘‘licensee’s continuing duty to timelydisclose any conflicts of interest.’’ The Commission shouldrevise this subsection so that it is consistent with the act.

9. Section 35.332. Exclusive listing agreements—Clarity.

The Preamble states that subsection (d) is being de-leted. However, the regulation does not show this dele-tion. The Commission should reconcile this inconsistencyin the final regulation.

10. Section 35.333. Agreements of sale—Clarity.

Subsection (a) Conspicuously

Subsection (a) requires each agreement of sale tocontain ‘‘conspicuously . . .’’ a specific statement. The useof the term ‘‘conspicuously’’ is vague. If the Commissionintends by the use of the term ‘‘conspicuously’’ that thestatement should appear in bold, large type and on the

front page of each agreement of sale then the Commissionshould specifically describe its requirement in the finalregulation.Subsection (a) Agreement of Terms

Subsection (a) refers to ‘‘an agreement of sale, otherthan for a cemetery lot, mausoleum or cremation space oropening . . . .’’ However, subsection (d) refers to ‘‘an agree-ment of sale for a cemetery lot or plot or a mausoleumspace or opening.’’ Does the Commission intend subsec-tions (a) and (d) to apply to the same subjects? If so, theCommission should revise both subsections to ensure thatthe language is consistent in the final regulation.11. Section 35.337. Comparative market analysis—

Reasonableness.Subsection (b) exempts a licensee who is also licensed

as an appraiser under the Real Estate Appraisers Certifi-cation Act (63 P. S. §§ 457.1—457.19) from placing adisclosure on the comparative market analysis. The intentof the disclosure is to alert a consumer that a compara-tive market analysis is not an appraisal. Regardless ofwho prepares a comparative market analysis, a consumershould be informed that the analysis is not the same asan appraisal. Consequently, the disclosure requirementshould apply to all market analyses and subsection (b)should be deleted.12. Miscellaneous Clarity Issues.Section 25.283. Conflict of interest

There appears to be a typographical error in subsection(d). The last word in this subsection, ‘‘service,’’ should be‘‘services.’’Section 35.313. Buyer’s agency

The title of this section is inconsistent with the formatused in § 35.312, and in the act. For consistency the titleshould be changed to ‘‘Buyer’s agent.’’Section 35.314. Dual agency

The title of this section should be changed to ‘‘Dualagent.’’

Subsection (b)(2) contains a typographical error. Thefirst word should be changed from ‘‘Maing’’ to ‘‘Making.’’Section 35.315. Designated agency

The title of this section should be changed to ‘‘Desig-nated agent.’’

Subsections (f)(1), (f)(2), (f)(4) and (f)(5) are numberedincorrectly. These subsections should be renumbered(f)(1), (f)(2), (f)(3) and (f)(4).Section 35.331. Written agreements generally

Subsections (a)(5), (a)(6), (a)(7) and (a)(8) are numberedincorrectly. They should be renumbered subsections (a)(4),(a)(5), (a)(6) and (a)(7) respectively.

Subsection (b) incorrectly refers to subsection (b) in-stead of subsection (a). This should be corrected in thefinal regulation.

Agricultural Land ConservationAssistance Grant Program

April 6, 2000

We submit for your consideration the following objec-tions and recommendations regarding this regulation.Each objection or recommendation includes a reference tothe criteria in the Regulatory Review Act (71 P. S.§ 745.5a(h) and (i)) which has not been met. The Depart-

ment of Agriculture (Department) must respond to theseComments when it submits the final-form regulation. Ifthe final-form regulation is not delivered by March 6,2002, the regulation will be deemed withdrawn.

Section 138h.5. Eligibility criteria—Fiscal Impact;Reasonableness; Need

We question why the Department is deleting the crite-rion in existing subsection (b)(2) which requires evalua-tion of the ‘‘availability of funding for a project from asource other than the Commonwealth.’’

If alternate funding is or becomes available to anapplicant, continuing the subsection (b)(2) requirementwould give the Department the flexibility of commensu-rately reducing the amount of funding to the applicantunder the Agricultural Land Conservation AssistanceGrant Program (Program). That, in turn, would makemore funds available for other Program projects.

Three other proposed rulemakings implementing FarmSafety and Occupational Health programs (Regulations#2-119, #2-122 and #2-123) contain requirements thatother sources of funding be evaluated. The Departmentshould likewise continue this requirement in this regula-tion, or justify its deletion.
