    RULE ANALYSIS

    Purpose of the rule or reason for the change:

    During the 2017 General Session, H.B. 51 was passed. This was an overall cleanup bill of the Title 41, Chapter 22. This title and chapter have not been cleaned up since 1987. H.B. 51 (2017) removed items that were no longer valid and added language for laws in existing code sections. Section 41-22-33 currently reads: "(1) A fee set by the board in accordance with Section 63J-1-504 shall be added to the registration fee required to register an off-highway vehicle under Section 41-2-8 to help fund the off-highway vehicle safety and education program." The Division of Motor Vehicles is currently collecting a $2 fee, for the Division of Utah State Parks and Recreation's off-highway vehicles (OHV) safety and education program. This amendment brings the Division of Parks and Recreation into compliance with Section 41-22-33.

    Summary of the rule or change:

    Annual OHV registration fees are currently set at $18 per off-highway motorcycles (OHM), Type I and Type II OHV's and $22 per snowmobile registration. In addition to the registration fee, several additional fees are charged including $1.50 to the School and Institutional Trust Lands Administration (SITLA) for OHV impacts to Trust Lands, $1 Division of Motor Vehicle (DMV) electronic fee, $4 DMV sticker fee, $1 Utah Highway Patrol (UHP) Aero Bureau and a $0.50 Search and Rescue fee. OHV owners must also pay an age-based fee in lieu of property tax assessment to their county of residence prior to registering an OHV. With the passing of H.B. 51, making these changes would bring the Division of Parks and Recreation into compliance with Section 41-22-33.

    Statutory or constitutional authorization for this rule:

    Anticipated cost or savings to:

    the state budget:

    There is no anticipated cost or savings to the state budget. The DMV was already collecting a $2 fee. This was a cleanup amendment from H.B. 51 (2017) and brings the Division of Parks and Recreation into compliance with Section 41-22-33.

    local governments:

    There is no anticipated cost or savings to local governments. This does not affect local governments as it was part of the cleanup of Section 41-22-33 per H.B. 51 (2017).

    small businesses:

    There is no anticipated cost or savings to small businesses. This was a cleanup for H.B. 51 (2017) for Section 41-22-33.

    persons other than small businesses, businesses, or local governmental entities:

    There is no anticipated cost or savings to persons other than small businesses, businesses, or local government entities. This was part of H.B. 51 (2017) which is a cleanup of Section 41-22-33. The fee was previously being collected by the DMV.

    Compliance costs for affected persons:

    The $2 fee has previously been being collected by the DMV, so the compliance costs are not new. This amendment was part of a cleanup for Section 41-22-33 from H.B. 51 (2017).

    Comments by the department head on the fiscal impact the rule may have on businesses:

    This rule should have no impact on businesses.
