    RULE ANALYSIS

    Purpose of the rule or reason for the change:

    The purpose of the rule change is to allow for simultaneous bid offerings to be opened the next business day, if the last Monday of the month falls on a holiday.

    Summary of the rule or change:

    The change allows for the simultaneous bid offering to be opened on the first business day following a holiday, if that holiday falls on the last Monday of the month.

    State statutory or constitutional authorization for this rule:

    Section 65A-6-5

    Anticipated cost or savings to:

    the state budget:

    The rule amendment does not affect the state budget because it merely makes allowances to delay the simultaneous bid openings by one day if the last Monday of the month falls on a legal holiday.

    local governments:

    As local governments neither control the leasing of state lands nor apply for leases for the purposes of mineral extraction on state lands, this rule does not apply to them.

    other persons:

    The rule change would not effect other persons monetarily, although it would delay the announcement of the bid by one day, if the last Monday of the month falls on a legal holiday.

    Compliance costs for affected persons:

    There is no compliance costs for affected persons. The due date is still 5:00 p.m. the Friday before the bid openings. This does not affect the timing of when the bids are due, just when they are opened.

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

    This rule amendment will have no fiscal impact on businesses. The rule change only affects the day the bids are opened and announced, if the bid opening day falls on a legal holiday. Michael Styler, Executive Director
