Sunrise Criteria
Pursuant to the Colorado Sunrise Act, §24-34-104.1, C.R.S.,
the determination of the need for new regulation shall be based
upon the following criteria:
1. Whether the unregulated practice of the occupation or profession clearly harms or endangers the health, safety or welfare of the public, and whether the potential for harm is easily recognizable and not remote or dependent on tenuous argument;
2. Whether the public needs, and can be reasonably expected to benefit from, an assurance of initial and continuing professional or occupational competence; and
3. Whether the public can be adequately protected by other means in a more cost-effective manner.
Submit comments on-line for consideration during upcoming sunrise reviews.
To request an application, please e-mail the Office of Policy, Research and Regulatory Reform.
