    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 4-5-9 gives a clear mandate to the Department to establish a rule for the registration of food establishments. Subsection 4-5-9(1) (a) pursuant to Title 63G, Chapter 3, Utah Administrative Rulemaking Act, the department shall establish rules providing for the registration of food establishments to protect public health and ensure a safe food supply.

    Summary of written comments received during and since the last five-year review of the rule from interested persons supporting or opposing the rule:

    The Department has not received written comments regarding this rule. However, the rule was amended in 2007 to reflect a new statutory fee exemption for bona fide farmer's markets.

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

    The original justification of the rule, to register all food establishments in order to have effective food safety, still exists. Therefore, this rule should be continued.
