Filed: 05/17/2017 05:15:03 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:
This rule is authorized by Section 54-1-1, which requires the Public Service Commission to exercise its rulemaking powers; Section 54-4-1 gives the Commission the power and jurisdiction to regulate all public utilities in Utah; and Section 54-4-7 requires the Commission to provide rules to ensure that utility service and equipment is just, safe, proper, and adequate. Section 54-4-14 authorizes the Commission to promulgate rules to require utilities to conduct business in such a way as to safeguard the health and safety of its employees, customers, and the public. Section 54-4-23 authorizes the Commission to prescribe a system of accounts to be kept by public utilities.
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 in the last five years.
Reasoned justification for continuation of the rule, including reasons why the agency disagrees with comments in opposition to the rule, if any:
Rule R746-320 should be continued because it establishes guidelines for methods and conditions of service for natural gas utilities such as quality control of equipment, standards, records, testing, locations of meters, plant operations and construction, records, and accounting.
