Filed: 01/27/2017 09:04:53 AM

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 19-2-104(1)(a) authorizes 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 contaminants source." Rule R307-341 does this by establishing reasonably available control technology for the application of cutback asphalt in any ozone nonattainment or maintenance areas.

Summary of written comments received during and since the last five-year review of the rule from interested persons supporting or opposing the rule:

The Division did not receive any written comments on this rule 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:

The rule is required under the state implementation plan for ozone, incorporated by reference under Section R307-110-13. The plan is also required by Section 110 of the Clean Air Act. It is a necessary part of Utah's State Implementation Plan to attain the National Ambient Air Quality Standard for ozone. Therefore, this rule should be continued.
