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:

Subsection 53A-1-401(3) allows the Utah State Board of Education to adopt rules in accordance with its responsibilities, and Section 53A-17a-139 allows the Utah State Board of Education to increase funds for a school district in order to avoid penalizing it for an excessive loss in student enrollment due to factors beyond its control.

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:

This rule continues to be necessary because it provides specific procedures for the Utah State Board of Education to compensate a school district for an excessive loss in student enrollment due to factors beyond the school district's control, as provided for in state law. Therefore, this rule should be continued.
