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 4-3-2, Utah Dairy Act, is the authority to make and enforce rules about butter. This authority was used to adopt the United States Department of Agriculture's (USDA) standards for butter, by rule. Utah has several butter manufacturers. Adherence to these standards allows them to market butter in other states and internationally.

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:

The rule is necessary to implement the standards mandated by the USDA for marketing butter. Therefore, this rule should be continued. This rule is supported by the dairy industry.
