Five-Year Notice of Review and Statement of Continuation

DAR File No.: 41636
Filed: 05/15/2017 09:50:11 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:

Section 19-2-104 allows the Air Quality Board to promulgate rules that control, abate, and prevent air pollution from all sources. Rule R307-410 prevents air pollution by requiring an emissions impact analysis from sources to determine what amount of pollution will contribute to a violation of federal air quality standards. Rule R307-410 is also required by Section II, Review of New and Modified Air Pollution Sources and Section XVIII, Demonstration of GEP Stack Height, of the State Implementation Plan (SIP). The SIP is required under Clean Air Act, 42 U.S.C. 7410 and 40 CFR 51 subpart I, and 40 CFR 51.118.

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 written comments have been received about this rule since its last review.

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

Rule R307-410 is required by Section XVIII, Demonstration of GEP Stack Height, of the Utah State Implementation Plan (SIP), which is incorporated by reference under Rule R307-110. The SIP is required under Clean Air Act, 42 U.S.C. 7410 and 40 CFR 51 subpart I, and 40 CFR 51.118. Without the SIP, EPA would be required to impose a federal implementation plan. Therefore, this rule should be continued.
