Regulation Review - 2026-003

Pursuant to Governor Joe Lombardo’s Executive Order 2026-003, all executive branch agencies, departments, boards, and commissions are required to hold a public hearing to solicit stakeholder recommendations on regulations that should be streamlined, clarified, or removed.

The Executive Order also directs agencies to conduct a comprehensive review of their regulations and submit a report to the Governor’s Office by December 31, 2026, identifying recommended regulatory changes and prioritizing five to ten regulations for consideration.

The Nevada Governor’s Office of Energy (GOE) will hold a public hearing to receive comments and recommendations regarding regulations under Chapters 701 and 701A of the Nevada Administrative Code (NAC), which address energy policy, energy conservation, building efficiency standards, renewable energy development, and energy-related tax incentives.

GOE will review stakeholder input and identify potential regulatory changes in accordance with the Executive Order.

Regulation Review-2023-003

Per Gov. Joe Lombardo’s Executive Order 2023-003, no new regulations shall be proposed, approved or acted on by any executive branch agency, department, board or commission until the Executive Order is rescinded.

In addition, the executive order directs executive branch agencies to undertake a comprehensive review of the regulations subject to its enforcement. On or before, May 1, 2023, each department, agency, board, and commission shall provide a report to the Governor’s office detailing how the regulation subject to its enforcement can be streamlined, clarified, reduced or otherwise improved to ensure those regulations provide for the general welfare of the State without unnecessarily inhibiting economic growth.

GOE currently has one pending appliance standards regulation, which has undergone a workshop and hearing for adoption, but it is currently paused under this executive order.

GOE staff are currently undertaking this comprehensive review and will provide the report and any updates here as they become available.
