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 19-6-104(1)(j) states that the board shall require any facility, including an incinerator, that disposes of solid waste to submit plans of operation, specifications and other information required by the board. Rule R315-305 sets requirements for incinerators. Section 19-6-108 requires approval of operations plans for disposal facilities. Rule R315-306 establishes part of the framework required to meet the requirements of the Solid and Hazardous Waste Act.

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

Proposed changes to the rule were published in September 2003 and December 2006. No comments were received during the 2003 or 2006 comment period.

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

Rule R315-306 contains requirements for nonhazardous solid waste incineration facilities performance requirements, design standards, operation and maintenance standards. The rule forms the basis of the permit program required by the Solid and Hazardous Waste Act. Therefore, this rule should be continued.
