DAR File No.: 41858
Filed: 06/28/2017 02:52:40 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:
The federal Low Income Home Energy Assistance Act of 1981, 42 U.S.C. 8621 et seq., as amended, and its accompanying regulations, 45 CFR 96.80 et seq., provide grants to the states for subsidies for certain low-income individuals and households in need of assistance in paying their home energy costs. In response, the Utah Legislature has passed the Home Energy Assistance Target (HEAT) Program Act, Section 35A-8-1401 et seq., which authorizes the Department of Workforce Services to administer the HEAT Program in accordance with the above-cited federal authorities. Section 35A-8-1403 specifically authorizes the Department to make rules setting forth the eligibility criteria for the HEAT Program.
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 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:
This rule is necessary to set standards for whether household assets will be counted when determining eligibility for the HEAT Program. Therefore, the rule should be continued.
