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:

The Sheep Marketing order is promulgated under authority under Subsection 4-2-2(1)(e) which authorizes marketing orders to promote orderly market conditions for agriculture products. It is authorized by the authority vested in the Commissioner of the Utah Department of Agriculture and Food, that this order continue as originally established to maintain and expand Utah's sheep industry and that the producers shall be subject to the terms and provisions of the order.

Summary of written comments received during and since the last five-year review of the rule from interested persons supporting or opposing the rule:

There has been no written comments supporting 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 sheep industry voted to establish this marketing order to improve conditions of their industry through increased sales and profitability. Lamb and wool prices are at an all time high which adds credence to the effectiveness of this marketing order. Continuation of the order will help ensure a robust industry. Therefore, this rule should be continued.
