502 Delaware Standardbred Breeders’ Fund Regulations

*Please Note: The final regulation for 502 Delaware Standardbred Breeders’ Fund Regulations was originally submitted for publication in the August 1, 2021 issue of the Register of Regulations. The final order contained a clerical error that misstated the citation providing the Standardbred Breeders’ Fund’s statutory authority to promulgate regulations. This part of the final order is reprinted below with the error corrected. The effective date for the final order and regulation appearing in the August Register remains the same.

I. NATURE OF PROCEEDINGS

Pursuant to its authority under 29 Del. C. §4815(b)(3)D.2 29 Del.C. §4815(b)(4)b. and 3 Del.C. §10081(b), the State of Delaware, Department of Agriculture’s Standardbred Breeders’ Fund (herein “the Fund”) proposed to amend its regulations to eliminate the restriction on private treaty breeding and allow for later payment of registration fees for the Funds’ program pertaining to the registration of stallions. All of these changes were proposed to address the fiduciary responsibility of the Fund to sustain the program into the future while maintaining the current status.

Notice of a public comment period of thirty (30) days on the Fund’s proposed amended regulations was published in the Delaware Register of Regulations for June 1, 2021 in accordance with 29 Del. C. §4815(b)(4)b.2.D 29 Del.C. §4815(b)(4)b. and 3 Del.C. §10081(b). This is the Fund’s Decision and Order adopting the proposed amended regulations.
