Filed: 05/15/2013 02:29:49 PM

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:

28 CFR 35.107 requires a public entity that employs 50 or more persons to adopt and publish grievance procedures providing for prompt and equitable resolution of complaints alleging any action that would be prohibited under the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) and requires that at least one employee coordinate the efforts of the public entity to comply with and carry out its responsibilities under the ADA.

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 procedures for non-Utah State Office of Education and non-Utah State Office of Rehabilitation employees to file complaints under federal ADA law. Therefore, this rule should be continued.
