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:

The rule is authorized under Subsections 63A-12-104(2) and 63G-2-204(2)(d), and Section 63G-3-201. Section 63A-12-104 permits governmental entities to designate at which level the requirements of that chapter are undertaken and Subsection 63G-2-204(2)(d) permits the governmental entity to adopt rules specifying where and to whom requests for access shall be directed.

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

The University of Utah is not aware of any written comments received during the specified time period.

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

This rule establishes the departments and officers within the University of Utah whose primary responsibility is receiving open records requests. This information is not set forth in the Utah Code and, without this information, there is no mechanism for ensuring that records requests are submitted to the department within the University of Utah with the ability to fulfill the request. Therefore, this rule should be continued.
