The Organization of Agreement States (OAS) recognizes that the states have a wide array of options within their regulatory authority. These may include statutes, orders, exemptions, journal entries and waivers to deal with the needs of their regulated community and they will use their authority as needed to protect public health and safety. OAS is providing the following links for consideration by state programs while formulating their policies, but also to aid licensees in identifying how things are addressed in the various state programs.
