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:

Section 19-1-106 establishes the Radiation Control Board. The Radiation Control Board is authorized to make rules under Section 19-3-104 that are necessary for controlling exposure to sources of radiation that constitute a significant health hazard. Section 19-3-108 allows the Executive Secretary, as authorized by the Board, to issue licenses, review and approve plans, enforce rules, impound radioactive material, and authorize employees or representatives of the department to enter at reasonable times and upon reasonable notice in and upon public or private property for the purpose of inspecting and investigating conditions and records concerning radiation sources.

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 comments have been received since the last five-year review period.

Reasoned justification for continuation of the rule, including reasons why the agency disagrees with comments in opposition to the rule, if any:

The purpose of this rule is to prescribe general requirements governing the licensing of radioactive material, give notice of possible enforcement actions to those persons that knowingly provide false information relating to or regarding radioactive material license or application, and address specific conditions where a person is exempt from certain rules. Therefore, this rule should be continued.
