GOVERNOR'S OFFICE

[4 PA. CODE CH. 1]

Index of Issuances--Directives Management System

[36 Pa.B. 4205]
[Saturday, August 5, 2006]

   The Directives Management System provides comprehensive statements of policy and procedure on matters that affect employees in all agencies under the Governor's jurisdiction. This amendment updates the index for all Executive Orders, Management Directives, and Manuals issued, amended, and rescinded by the Directives Management System after publication of the last Index dated March 18, 2005.

   This Index and all documents listed herein can be accessed on the OA Central Internet site www.oa.state.pa.us. Click on ''Policies and Procedures.'' Then, click on the respective category. Please note that all documents preceded by the letter ''M'' are manuals.

   Title 4 of the Pennsylvania Code § 1.2 specifies that:

   ''Issuances from the Governor's Office and from agencies under the Governor's jurisdiction, except proclamations and press releases, that are intended for distribution to two or more agencies are to be issued through the Directives Management System in one of four types of publications:

   (1) Numbered Executive Orders, signed by the Governor, announcing broad policies, programs, and responsibilities that are relatively permanent.

   (2) Numbered Management Directives announcing detailed policies, programs, responsibilities, and procedures that are relatively permanent. Management Directives are to be signed by the Governor, Lieutenant Governor, Secretary of Administration, Budget Secretary, or the head of a department or independent board, commission, or council under the Governor's jurisdiction.

   (3) Numbered Administrative Circulars containing either informational material or instructions that are one-time or temporary in nature. Administrative Circulars are to be signed the same as Management Directives.

   (4) Numbered procedural issuances containing detailed information and guidelines for relatively restricted, well-defined operations, or sets of operations. Procedural issuances may be manuals, handbooks, catalogs, guides, or similar publications. Manuals are to be signed the same as Management Directives.''

   Management Directives and Manuals are numbered in sequence by category (e.g., Financial Management) and subcategory (e.g., Payroll). They should be filed by number, not by date.

   Changes to Executive Orders, Management Directives, and Manuals (catalogs, handbooks, bulletins, etc.) may be issued in the form of amendments. Amendments are complete documents incorporating all changes since the last complete issuance. Dots are placed in the margins to show the new or revised text. Some older documents have revisions, which are generally pen and ink changes or replacement pages and affect only those parts of an issuance being changed. (Revisions are no longer being issued; changes are now made in the document and it is reissued as an amended version of the document. Additionally, when a document has been amended, the previous document should be removed from the file and recycled.

   Individuals may subscribe to receive e-mail notifications, referred to as eAlerts, when new documents are issued. To do so, go to http://www.oa.state.pa.us and click the ''register'' button in the lower left corner of the web page. Complete the on-line registration form and click the ''submit'' button. You will then be taken to the Office of Administration's website subscription page. Select the site areas that you would like to subscribe to. Subscribers will receive an e-mail notification when issuances are posted to this area of the website.

   If you are registered on the Office of Administration's website and would like to update your subscription selections, click the ''login'' button located in the lower left corner of the web page, and login using the user name and password you created when you originally registered. Once you are logged in, you will see that the ''register'' button has changed to an ''update'' button. Click the ''update'' button and you will be taken to the registration page. Click the hyperlink that says ''You may also change your eAlert subscriptions here'' and proceed to update your subscriptions, as necessary.

   Originators of all proposed documents, excluding Executive Orders, are to send documents by e-mail, in Word format, to Directives Management. All Executive Orders should be sent by e-mail, in Word format, to the Governor's General Counsel.

   All agency contact recipients receiving electronic notification are responsible for notifying affected offices in their agencies of new documents listed out on the OA website.

   For any questions regarding Directives Management, including a current e-mail address, contact 717/783-5055.

   This manual replaces, in its entirety, Manual M210.3 dated March 18, 2005.
