(2) consistent with the purposes fairly intended by the policy and provisions of this chapter.

(C) Regulations and forms of the administrator must be published.

(D) A provision of this chapter imposing liability does not apply to an act done or omitted in good faith in conformity with a regulation, order, or form adopted by the administrator, notwithstanding that the regulation, order, or form may be amended, rescinded, or determined by judicial or other authority to be invalid.
