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:

This rule is promulgated under Subsection 4-2-2(1)(e) which allows the department to make and adopt rules regarding market orders.

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 regarding the sheep marketing order.

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

The market order is established at the request of the producers to provided marketing for their product. Industry can call a referendum vote once a year with 40% of the industry making the request, at which point the marketing order can be discontinued. No such referendum has been requested and industry would like for the order to continue. Therefore, this rule should be continued.
