DAR File No.: 42668
Filed: 03/08/2018 11:32:31 AMNOTICE 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:
This rule was enacted under Subsection 19-2-104(1)(a). Subsection 19-2-104(1)(a) authorizes the Air Quality Board to promulgate rules "regarding the control, abatement, and prevention of air pollution from all sources and the establishment of the maximum quantity of air pollutants that may be emitted by an air pollutant source." Rule R307-357 reduces VOC emissions emitted from consumer products by implementing control plan or variances on consumer products containing VOCs, and establishing bans on toxic and ozone depleting compounds that result in reduced VOC emissions.
Summary of written comments received during and since the last five-year review of the rule from interested persons supporting or opposing the rule:
There have been no comments in opposition to or in support of this rule since the adoption of the 2014 amendments.
Reasoned justification for continuation of the rule, including reasons why the agency disagrees with comments in opposition to the rule, if any:
Rule R307-357 was amended one time since the rule was created. In 2014, an amendment corrected an error to align the content limits with federal rule and the California Air Resource Board rule. Rule R307-357 is needed to establish controls and limits on consumer products that emit VOCs,which are precursors to the formation of PM2.5, or contain toxic and ozone depleting compounds. Rule R307-357 is a component of Utah's State Implementation Plan (SIP), and cannot be removed from the SIP without EPA approval. Therefore, this rule should be continued.
