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:

Rule R307-206 sets forth performance standards and maximum concentration of contaminants allowed in the air for operations that clean or prepare a surface by forcefully propelling a stream of abrasive material against the surface. Subsection 19-2-104(1)(a) allows the Air Quality Board to make rules "...regarding the control, abatement, and prevention of air pollution from all sources and the establishment of the maximum quantity of air contaminants that may be emitted by any air contaminant source."

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 since the last five-year review.

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

This rule protects the health of citizens when abrasive blasting operations are underway, and should be continued. In addition, this rule is a component of Utah's State Implementation Plan (SIP), and it cannot be deleted from the SIP without EPA's approval.
