No written comment has 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 procedures for designated Utah State Office of Rehabilitation employees who have significant unsupervised access to clients to have criminal background checks in order to provide protection for clients.
