Section 4-5-9 is the Registration of Food Establishments, Fee, Suspension and Reinstatement of Registration Inspection for Compliance. Pursuant to Title 63 G, Chapter 3, Utah Administrative Rulemaking Act, the department shall establish rules providing for the registration of food establishments to protect public health and ensure a safe food supply.

Reasoned justification for continuation of the rule, including reasons why the agency disagrees with comments in opposition to the rule, if any:
Registration of retail and manufactured food facilities is required by statute.
