OAR 715-025-0030: DECLARATION OF LACK OF TIMELY PROGRESS

(1) The Commission may declare lack of timely progress is being achieved if the Council fails to make a recommendation to the Commission within one year from the date the subcommittee is charged by the Council with the development or modification of the CAP, or should have been charged by the Council pursuant to OAR 715-025-0020, whichever is earlier. The Commission may additionally declare a lack of timely progress if the Council fails to take final action on a non-substantive modification or make a recommendation to the Commission on a substantive modification within one year from the date such modification was referred to the Council for review pursuant to OAR 715-025-055. (2) Upon such a declaration, the Executive Director, or the Executive Director’s designee, is charged with studying the matter to formulate a draft CAP for the Council. In addition to the work produced by the Transfer Council, the Executive Director, or designee, shall request information and input from chief academic officers from institutions with programs potentially subject to the CAP. (3) The Executive Director, or the Executive Director’s designee, shall provide a recommendation to the Council not sooner than 90 days from the date the Commission makes such a declaration. (4) The Executive Director, or the Executive Director’s designee may hire consultants and may consult institutions to assist the Executive Director, or the Executive Director’s designee, in developing the final draft of the CAP for the Transfer Council. (5) Upon completion of the final draft of the CAP, the Executive Director, or the Executive Director’s designee, will return the CAP to the Council for the Council to provide its recommendation to the Commission, as provided in OAR 715-025-0025. The Council must provide its recommendation to the Commission within 90 days following the return of the CAP to the council, or such other time as the Commission may determine in the declaration of lack of timely progress.
