(1) In
construing rules, ss. 990.001, 990.01, 990.03 (1) , (2) and (4),
990.04 and 990.06 apply in the same manner in which they apply
to statutes, except that ss. 990.001 and 990.01 do not apply if the
construction would produce a result that is inconsistent with the
manifest intent of the agency.
(2) The code shall be prima facie evidence in all courts and
proceedings as provided by s. 889.01, but this does not preclude
reference to or, in case of a discrepancy, control over a rule filed
with the legislative reference bureau under s. 227.20 or modified
under s. 227.265, and the certified copy of a rule shall also and in
the same degree be prima facie evidence in all courts and
proceedings.
