Administrative History

Section 107 of the Executive Law states that "the secretary of state shall compile and keep current a list of all interstate compacts and other intergovernmental agreements between or among states, subdivisions of this state and other states, or between this state or any subdivision thereof and the federal government having the force of law to which this state or any subdivision thereof is party." Additionally, in any case where the statutes of the state do not contain the full text of a "compact or agreement" as defined above, the secretary of state shall receive "a true copy of the compact or agreement and keep the same on file." Furthermore, "any amendment, supplementary agreement or administrative rule or regulation having the force of law implementing, adding to or modifying any compact or agreement to which this state or a subdivision thereof is party shall be listed or filed in the same manner as the compact or agreement itself."
