DAR File No.: 40741
Filed: 09/06/2016 01:01:02 PMNOTICE OF REVIEW AND STATEMENT OF CONTINUATION
Concise explanation of the particular statutory provisions under which the rule is enacted and how these provisions authorize or require the rule:
Sections 40-10-6 and 40-10-6.5 provide for rulemaking authority to the Board of Oil, Gas and Mining as necessary for the regulation of coal mining operations and reclamation operations. Subsection 40-10-20(6) specifically establishes provisions for civil penalties for a director, officer, or agent of a corporation who knowingly authorizes a violation of a condition of a coal mining permit.
Summary of written comments received during and since the last five-year review of the rule from interested persons supporting or opposing the rule:
No written comments have been received.
Reasoned justification for continuation of the rule, including reasons why the agency disagrees with comments in opposition to the rule, if any:
This rule establishes standards and procedures that are necessary for individual civil penalties against any corporate director, officer, or agent of a corporate permittee who knowingly authorizes a permit violation. This rule should be continued so Utah's Coal Program continues to retain primacy under the federal Surface Mining Control and Reclamation Act.
