NOTICE OF REVIEW AND STATEMENT OF CONTINUATION

Section 53-3-1004 requires the Driver License Division to make rules for an interlock system provider license. The rule is to include requirements concerning locations, equipment requirements, installer qualifications and requirements, previous records of the providers and installers including character and reputation, fee schedules and charges that providers and installers will use. The rule shall outline licensee requirements such as insurance, knowledge of procedures and other provision the commissioner deems necessary. Subsection 53-3-1007(1) requires that an ignition interlock provider must electronically notify the Division of a device installation on a person's vehicle. Subsection 53-3-1007(3) requires an ignition interlock provider to electronically notify the Division if a device is uninstalled. Subsection 53-3-1007(8) requires the Division to establish rules for certification and regulation of ignition interlock system providers, procedures for the system providers to electronically notify the Division and policies and procedures for to administer the program.

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.

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

This rule is required under Section 53-3-1004. Ignition interlock systems are required for drivers to reinstate a driver license following the suspension for an alcohol offense. The rule allows for greater definition of the requirements needed by ignition interlock providers that install a system into a drivers vehicle and ensures that qualified licensed installers are performing this function. Therefore, this rule should be continued.
