Filed: 06/12/2012 11:35:09 AM

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:

Federal regulations at 45 CFR 303.11 provide detailed case closure criteria for IV-D agencies. These required criteria have been adopted by the Office of Recovery Services (ORS) and incorporated by reference into rule. This rule is enacted under Section 62A-11-107 as amended 07/01/1997, which authorizes ORS to adopt, amend, and enforce rules necessary to carry out its necessary duties including closure of cases under appropriate circumstances.

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 during or since the last five-year review.

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

The federally-mandated closure criteria are still in effect and do not appear in state statute. Therefore, this rule should be continued.
