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:

Rule R307-210 was enacted under the authority of Subsection 19-2-104(1)(a). Section 19-2-104 gives the Utah Air Quality Board the power to make rules "regarding the control, abatement, and prevention of air pollution from all sources and the establishment of the maximum quantity of air pollutants that may be emitted by an air pollutant source."

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 by interested persons supporting or opposing Rule R307-210.

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

The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) has delegated the authority to "develop and submit" procedures for "implementing and enforcing standards of performance for new sources" in Utah to the state under 42 U.S.C. 7411(c). Rule R307-210 is a part of those procedures. The Division believes it is in Utah's best interest to remain in control of implementing and enforcing standards of performance for new sources rather than giving that authority to the federal government. Therefore, Rule R307-210 should be continued.
