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:

In accordance with Subsection 63G-2-403(4)(a)(i), this rule establishes the procedure for requesting and scheduling an expedited hearing.

Summary of written comments received during and since the last five-year review of the rule from interested persons supporting or opposing the rule:

Written comments in support or opposition of this rule have not been received.

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

A party appealing to the State Records Committee may request in writing that a hearing be scheduled prior to 10 business days after filing a notice of appeal. After consulting with the chair, the executive secretary may schedule an expedited hearing for good cause after determining a date when a quorum of the committee will be available. An expedited hearing may be justified by a request from a representative of the media in the case of a breaking news story or urgent matter involving government records. This rule allows and provides for that possibility. Therefore, this rule should be continued.
