No. 33502 (5-year Review): Rule R309-705. Financial Assistance:Federal Drinking Water Project Revolving Loan Program
DAR File No.: 33502
Filed: 03/23/2010 01:30:51 PMNOTICE 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:
The federal Safe Drinking Water Act, 42 U.S.C. 300j et seq., and Title 73, Chapter 10c, authorize the Department of Environmental Quality acting through the Drinking Water Board to issue financial assistance to public drinking water systems for drinking water projects from a federal capitalization grant.
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 have been received either in support or opposing 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 millions of dollars annually in low interest loans and principal forgiveness (grants) to communities for construction of drinking water infrastructure projects. Without this financial assistance many communities could not afford to construct drinking water system improvements that are necessary to protect the health and safety of the public and the Drinking Water Board would not be able to continue administering the federal and Utah State Safe Drinking Water Acts. Therefore, this rule should be continued.
