Administrative Code) are rules adopted by the department
to implement, interpret, and make specific the statutes.
Both statutes and regulations have the force of law.
AS 08.38 specifically applies
to Dietitians and Nutritionists. AS 08.01-08.03 and
regulations 12 AAC 02 apply to all professions regulated
by the division.
Proposed regulations
are advertised in Alaska newspapers and we invite
public
comment on them. If you would like to receive notice
of proposed regulations, please write to the regulations
specialist and request that your name be added

Dietitians and Nutritionists interested parties list.
Please advise us if you move or wish your name
removed
from
the mailing list.
