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:

Subsection 63-11-17(2) and (3) show the powers and jurisdiction of the Division of Wildlife Resources in regard to fishing, hunting, and trapping, and the role the Division of State Parks has with reference to fish and game.

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 statute clearly states the powers and duties of the Board and the Division of Parks and Recreation. This rule deals with the fishing, hunting, and trapping, and includes the duties of the Division of Wildlife with the same. It also gives the parks with small game, big game, falconry, and waterfowl listed, and permits to hunt also referring to Utah Code. The rule enhances the statute and the statute gives the general powers and authorities. They are both necessary as tools to assist in public education of what is allowed in our state park system. Therefore, this rule should be continued.
