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

This rule regulates operations at establishments holding limited-service restaurant liquor licenses. It establishes licensing requirements including requirements for applications, bonds, and insurance; sets procedures for licensees to order from and/or return wine and heavy beer items to the Department of Alcohol Beverage Control (DABC); establishes restaurant operating hours; sets regulations on the sale of alcoholic beverages on the restaurant premises including service and consumption at a patron's table; establishes guidelines for the use of alcoholic product flavorings; establishes requirements for menus and price lists; and sets rules for employee identification badges. All of the regulations set forth in this rule remain important and applicable to the operations of a limited-service restaurant. Therefore, this rule should be continued.
