Filed: 10/22/2015 03:07:52 PM

RULE ANALYSIS

Purpose of the rule or reason for the change:

During the 2015 General Session, S.B. 28 repealed Section 58-69-302.5 which removed the license classification of dentist-educator and replaced it with an exemption provision. The Division and Dentist and Dental Hygienist Licensing Board have reviewed and approved this proposed amendment.

Summary of the rule or change:

Section R156-69-302d with regards to licensing of dentist-educators is deleted in its entirety due to governing statute amendments made during the 2015 General Session.

State statutory or constitutional authorization for this rule:

• Subsection 58-1-202(1)(a)
• Section 58-69-101
• Subsection 58-1-106(1)(a)

Anticipated cost or savings to:

the state budget:

The Division will incur minimal costs of approximately $50 to print and distribute the rule once the proposed amendments are made effective. Any costs incurred will be absorbed in the Division's current budget.

local governments:

The proposed amendment applies only to those that were required to be licensed dental-educators and applicants for licensure in that classification. As a result, the proposed amendments do not apply to local governments.

small businesses:

The proposed amendment applies only to those that were required to be licensed dental-educators and applicants for licensure in that classification. Licensees and applicants for licensure may work in a small business; however, the proposed amendments would not directly affect the business.

persons other than small businesses, businesses, or local governmental entities:

The proposed amendment applies only to those that were required to be licensed dental-educators and applicants for licensure in that classification. The Division does not anticipate any further savings or costs beyond those identified in fiscal notes associated with S.B. 28 (2015).

Compliance costs for affected persons:

The proposed amendment applies only to those that were required to be licensed dental-educators and applicants for licensure in that classification. The Division does not anticipate any further savings or costs beyond those identified in fiscal notes associated with S.B. 28 (2015).

Comments by the department head on the fiscal impact the rule may have on businesses:

As stated in the rule analysis, this filing removes the dentist-educator license classification, which was repealed during the 2015 General Session and replaced with an exemption provision. No fiscal impact to businesses is anticipated.
