    On page 4, after line 32, insert the following:

    "(3) Upon adoption of any rule under this section, an agency shall have a plan to:

    (a) Promote voluntary compliance; and

    (b) Evaluate whether the rule avoids the taking of private property for public use unless no reasonable alternative exists that advances the public interest.

    (4) As used in this section, "taking" means totally destroying or rendering valueless private property, damaging by a public use in connection with an actual taking by the exercise of eminent domain, or when there is interference with the use of property to the owner's prejudice, with resulting diminution in value.  Police action to prevent or abate actual damage to another is not considered a taking."
