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:

Section 19-2-109.1 requires that all sources of air pollution that are subject to Title IV or V of the federal Clean Air Act must obtain an operating permit. Rule R307-417 incorporates by reference the federal requirements under Title IV, 40 CFR Part 72, as in effect on July 1, 1998, into Utah's air quality rules, so that Utah has the authority to include those requirements in operating permits for sources subject to Title IV.

 

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 in 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:

Without Rule R307-417, Utah would not have the authority to include the provisions of Title IV of the Clean Air Act in operating permits for sources subject to Title IV, and those permits would be issued by the federal Environmental Protection Agency instead. Therefore, this rule should be continued.
