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:

As required by the Utah Procurement Code, specifically Section 63G-6-501, Subsection 63G-6-504(2), Section 63G-6-506, and Section 63G-6-601, rules are to be adopted that contain provisions applicable to selecting the appropriate method for management of construction contracts, establishing appropriate bid, performance and payment bond criteria, and governing contract provisions.

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 written comments have been received.

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

The Utah Procurement Code was re-codified during the 2011 General Session and significant changes were made in S.B. 153. These changes will require a re-write of this administrative rule with an effective date of 05/2013. Purchasing has reviewed this rule and believes it needs to remain effective until a new rule can be adopted. Therefore, this rule should be continued.
