    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:

    Title 73, Chapter 10c, authorizes the Department of Environmental Quality acting through the Drinking Water Board to award financial assistance to political subdivisions to finance all or part of drinking water project costs and to enter into "credit enhancement agreements", "interest buy-down agreements", and/or "hardship grants."

    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 were received either in support of or opposition to this rule.

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

    Through this rule the Drinking Water Board is able to provide grants and low-interest loans to communities for construction of drinking water system infrastructure projects. Without this financial assistance many communities could not afford to construct the improvements necessary to protect public health and safety. This program also provides matching funds for the annual federal EPA Capitalization Grants which provide millions of dollars to the Drinking Water State Revolving Fund program and continued administration of the federal and Utah State Safe Drinking Water Acts.
