An Act amending the act of April 9, 1929 (P.L.177, No.175), known as The Administrative Code of 1929, providing for permit approval.

This bill amends Pennsylvania's Administrative Code to establish a new set of rules governing how state agencies process permit applications. It creates a strict 30-day deadline for agencies to either approve or deny requests for permits, renewals, or modifications, and it mandates that incomplete applications be returned to applicants within 10 days with a specific list of missing information. To prevent delays, the law includes a provision where an application is automatically deemed approved if the agency fails to act within the statutory timeframe or if the applicant submits a sworn affidavit confirming that all legal requirements have been met. These changes apply to various regulated activities but explicitly exclude personal licenses issued to individuals by professional boards.
