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 53C-1-302-(1)(a)(ii) and Section 53C-5-102 authorize the Director of the School and Institutional Trust Lands Administration to establish rules prescribing standards and conditions for the utilization of forage and related development of range resources on trust lands.

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 by the Trust for this rule since the last five-year notice of review.

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

Statute requires that guidelines for the grazing of livestock on trust lands be established. Range management provides a resource for local ranchers to utilize in their agricultural operations, as well as an additional source of revenue for the trust beneficiaries. This rule provides the criteria to meet statute requirements. Therefore, this rule should be continued.
