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 19-4-104(1)(a)(i) authorizes the Drinking Water Board to establish standards that prescribe the maximum contaminant levels in any public water system and provide for monitoring and reporting of water quality-related matters.

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 either in support or opposing this rule.

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

The continuation of this rule will ensure that community drinking water systems in Utah are providing correct and accurate yearly reports to their consumers. It outlines the contents required in the reports, when they are due, how to make them available, and how to contact the water system management with questions or concerns. This effort will greatly assist in providing good communications between water purveyors and their consumers.
