Concise explanation of the particular statutory provisions under which the rule is enacted and how these provisions authorize or require the rule:

This rule implements Sections 65A-2-2 and 65A-2-4 which require that planning procedures be developed for sovereign lands, and for the opportunity for the public to participate in the planning process.

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 supporting or opposing written comments have been received since the last notice of continuation.

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

This rule sets forth the planning procedures for natural and cultural resources on sovereign land as required by law. These procedures establish comprehensive land-management policies using multiple-use, sustained-yield principles in order to make the interest of the beneficiary paramount. This rule establishes that management plans shall guide the implementation of stated management objectives, and provide direction for land-use decisions and activities on sovereign lands. Therefore, this rule should be continued.
