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:

Rule R307-840 implements Subsection 19-2-104(1)(i) which authorizes the Air Quality Board to make rules to "implement the lead-based paint requirements for training, certification, and performance of 15 U.S.C. 2601 et seq., Toxic Substances Control Act, Subchapter IV--Lead Exposure Reduction, Sections 402 and 404."

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

Rule R307-840 was amended three times since the last five-year review. Under DAR No. 26282 that was effective 08/06/2003, no comments were received on that amendment. Under DAR No 28131 that was effective 11/03/2005, no comments were received on that amendment. Under DAR No. 30708 that was effective 02/08/2008, no comments were received on that amendment. No other comments have been received since the last five-year review.

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

Without Rule R307-840, Utah would not have authority to implement the federal requirements; implementation would be carried out by the Environmental Protection Agency. Therefore, this rule should be continued.
