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 17-18-8 explains what the Board may do regarding safety equipment on vessels. One of the conditions is to require additional safety equipment by this rule, as it summarizes the additional equipment and exemptions as well.

 

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:

All safety equipment is required for vessels to protect and promote well-being for the public using the waters of the state of Utah for recreational purposes. This rule includes additional safety concerns by addressing airboat requirements, bailing devices, sound devices, equipment condition, law enforcement vessels and any kind of exemption, such as sailboards, etc. This rule should be continued as it is a key in safety of recreators on waters in Utah.
