    Comments by the department head on the fiscal impact the rule may have on businesses:

    There are 1,241 entities with a NAICS code 611110 (Elementary and Secondary Schools) operating in Utah according to a "Firm Find Data" search through Utah's Department of Workforce Services. Most of the entities in the list are schools including public schools, charter schools, and private schools. Of the 1,241 entities, there are 15 private businesses, all of which are small businesses (there are no non-small businesses with a NAICS code 611110). This rule repeal has no fiscal impact on local education agencies and will not have a fiscal impact on non-small or small businesses. The Program Analyst at the Utah State Board of Education, Jill Curry, has reviewed and approved this fiscal analysis.

    Appendix 2: Regulatory Impact to Non - Small Businesses

    There are 1,241 entities with a NAICS code 611110 (Elementary and Secondary Schools) operating in Utah according to a "Firm Find Data" search through Utah's Department of Workforce Services. Most of the entities in the list are schools including public schools, charter schools, and private schools. Of the 1,241 entities, there are 15 private businesses, all of which are small businesses (there are no non-small businesses with a NAICS code 611110). Thus, this rule repeal is not expected to have any fiscal impact on non-small businesses' revenue or expenditures because there are no applicable non-small businesses and it does not require any expenditures of or generate revenues for non-small businesses.
