On October 17, 2018, the Division of Homeland Security and Emergency Services published a notice of adoption with respect to the New York State Volunteer Firefighter Enhanced Cancer Disability Benefits Program regulations.  The regulations were adopted as proposed.  A link to the Division’s website (here) contains links to both the regulations and the New York State Register.

The Register (starting at page 16) includes an assessment of public comment with respect to the proposed rules (including a response to each written comment).  Unfortunately, none of the comments resulted in any changes, and the regulations were adopted as originally proposed.
