    Exemption from Finding of Emergency
    Section 227.24 (1) (a) , Stats., authorizes state agencies to promulgate a rule as an emergency rule without complying with the notice, hearing and publication requirements under Ch. 227 , Stats., if preservation of the public peace, health, safety or welfare necessitates putting the rule into effect prior to the time it would take effect if the agency complied with the procedures. However, s. 23.22 (2t) (a) , Stats., authorizes the department to promulgate emergency rules to identify, classify, or control an invasive species without having to provide evidence that an emergency rule is necessary for the preservation of public peace, health, safety, or welfare or to provide a finding of emergency. In addition, such emergency rules may remain in effect until whichever of the following occurs first: the first day of the 25th month beginning after the effective date of the emergency rule, the effective date of the repeal of the emergency rule, or the date on which the permanent rule identifying, classifying, or controlling the invasive species, promulgated under s. 23.22 (2) (b) 6. , Stats., takes effect.

    2.   EmR1205 (DNR # CF-26-11(E)) — The Wisconsin Department of Natural Resources proposes an emergency order to revise Chapter NR 64 , All-Terrain Vehicles, as follows: to renumber section NR 64.14 (9) (d) ; to amend section NR 64.12 (7) (a) and section NR 64.14 (9) (a) 1.; and to create sections NR 64.02 (9m) , NR 64.02 (15) , NR 64.12 (7) (am) , NR 64.14 (2r) (a) and (b) , and NR 64.14 (9) (d) , relating to the all-terrain vehicle grant programs and trail-route combinations.
    The statement of scope for this rule, SS 046-11 , was approved by the governor on December 2, 2011 , published in Register No. 672 on December 31, 2011 and approved by the Natural Resources Board on February 22, 2012 .
    This emergency rule was approved by the governor on April 26, 2012.
    Finding of Emergency
    The Department is aware that several ATV trails in Wisconsin overlap existing roads. From the onset of the program, these overlapping paths were identified as trails, signed accordingly, and were eligible to receive ATV grant funds. A few years ago, the ORV Advisory Council and WI County Forestry Association proposed that the Department revise ch. NR 64 to accommodate paths used by both ATVs and motor vehicles. These trail-route combinations – also called hybrid trails but commonly referred to as "troutes" – will be eligible for future maintenance grant funding at the current rate if it can be shown that the hybrid trails ("troute") existed prior to the effective date of this rule.
    This emergency rule will establish a new category of all-terrain trail commonly called a "troute", or a trail-route combination, that provides a connector between trails and allows grant funding for these unique trails. An emergency rule is needed because we anticipate that the permanent rule revisions to ch. NR 64 that will include troutes will not be effective until Sept 2012, at the earliest. Without this emergency rule, DNR will not be able to award grants to project sponsors for ATV "troutes" in July 2012, as is our practice. About one-third of the trails in northern Wisconsin are "troutes" and have been funded as trails since the program started. Our partners count upon grant funds for troute maintenance.
    Without this Emergency Rule, the integrity and safety of troutes could be severely compromised. Our partners may be forced to close troutes without grant funding to maintain them until the permanent rule is effective. If troutes are closed, riders could be stranded in an unfamiliar location or be forced to turn around and ride back the same way they came instead of continuing onto their destination.

    Revenue
    EmR1201 — Rule to revise section Tax 7.23 , relating to the activities of brewers, bottlers, out-of-state shippers, and wholesalers.
    The scope statement for this rule, SS 018-11 , was approved by the governor on August 16, 2011, published in Register No. 669 on September 14, 2011, and approved by the Secretary of Revenue on September 26, 2011.
    Finding of Emergency
    The Department of Revenue finds that an emergency exists and that the rule order is necessary for the immediate preservation of the public peace, health, safety or welfare. A statement of the facts constituting the emergency is:
    The emergency rule is to administer the provisions of ss. 125.28 (5) (e) and 125.29 (3) , Stats., as created by 2011 Wisconsin Act 32 , and reflect revisions made by the Act to the authorized activities of persons holding wholesalers' and brewers' permits.
    It is necessary to promulgate this rule order so that the above provisions may be administered in a fair and consistent manner.
    This rule is therefore promulgated as an emergency rule and shall take effect upon publication in the official state newspaper. Certified copies of this rule have been filed with the Legislative Reference Bureau, as provided in s. 227.24 , Stats.
