    NOTICE 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:

    Subsections 62A-7-104(8) and 62A-7-104(2)(b) state that the division has the responsibility to adopt minimum standards for facilities and programs that serve delinquent youth. Subsection 62A-7-104(5) authorizes the division to employ staff necessary to operate the facilities and programs. Rule R547-10 is the minimum standard established to exclude the hiring of persons with a criminal history, so as to prevent this type of person from working with youth.

    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:

    The rule is a minimum standard designed to prevent adults with a criminal history from working directly with youth offenders. Therefore, this rule should be continued. Upon review, the rule needs to be amended to update the citation and format which will be handled in a future amendment.
