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(1)(a) authorizes the Drinking Water Board to make rules in accordance with Title 63G, Chapter 3, Utah Administrative Rulemaking Act, that provide for monitoring, record keeping and reporting of water quality; and Section 19-4-105 authorizes the Drinking Water Board to make rules more stringent than the corresponding federal regulations. Rule R309-400 prioritizes the rules made with authorization of Subsection 19-4-104(1)(a) and the priorities are set as more stringent than current federal regulations, as per Section 19-4-105.
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 public drinking water systems in Utah are prioritizing each issue that they must address and it shows the Division of Drinking Water which systems to prioritize for compliance. It is used to evaluate the water system's standard of operation and service delivered in compliance with the other rules encompassed in Rules R309-100 through R309-705. 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.
