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:

Subsection 19-4-104(4)(a) authorizes the Drinking Water Board to adopt and enforce standards and establish fees for certification of persons engaged in administering cross connection control programs of backflow prevention assembly training, repair, and maintenance testing.

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 either in support 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 continuation of this rule will ensure that the individuals involved in testing backflow valves, training testers, and those administering cross connection control programs are and remain competent to do so. This effort will greatly assist in protecting the quality and safety of the drinking water from the source through vast distribution systems to the end consumer, the public.
