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:

Rule R914-1 is authorized and required by Section 72-10-103 of the Uniform Aeronautical Regulatory Act. That section requires the Utah Department of Transportation (UDOT) to make rules regarding the establishment, licensing, location and use of air navigation facilities. Pursuant to this statutory requirement, Rule R914-1 makes specific rules regarding airport licensing, navigational aids, and safety as directed by the law.

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:

Rule R914-1 is an essential part of the regulatory scheme established for the safe operation of airports in the state of Utah. Without this rule, UDOT's ability to enforce appropriate safety standards and to regulate the licensing of airports is severely curtailed. This rule is necessary to maintain appropriate safety and regulatory controls for the safety of Utah's citizens. Therefore, this rule should be continued.
