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:

Title II of the Americans With Disabilities Act, 42 U.S.C. 12131 et seq., requires the state to provide a procedure for accommodating and taking complaints from disabled individuals. Since the Department of Workforce Services receives federal funds, this rule is essential. Section 35A-1-104 is the authority for the Department to write rules.

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 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:

The rule is essential to comply with federal law. The Department would lose all of its federal funding without this rule. Therefore, this rule should be continued.
