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:

Section 54-4-1 gives the Public Service Commission (PSC) general jurisdiction to regulate every public utility in Utah and to supervise all of the business of every such public utility in Utah, and to do all things necessary or convenient in the exercise of that power and jurisdiction. Section 63-46b-5 requires the PSC to enact rules designating one or more categories of adjudicative proceedings as informal adjudicative proceedings, and to, by rule, prescribe procedures for informal adjudicative proceedings.

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 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:

This rule should be continued so the PSC can continue to comply with Sections 54-4-1 and 63G-4-203.
