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:
The Air Quality Board is allowed by Section 19-2-204 to make rules specifying the amount of money to be dedicated for grants and the criteria for the director to consider when appropriating grants. In addition, Section 19-2-203 allows for the Division of Air Quality (Division) to develop exchange, rebate, or low-cost purchase programs, which this rule accomplishes. The Utah Legislature enacted the Clean Air Retrofit, Replacement, and Off-Road Technology (CARROT) Program during the 2014 General Session through H.B. 61. CARROT allows grants or other programs such as exchange, rebate, or low-cost purchase programs for activities that reduce emissions from non-road or heavy-duty diesel, on road engines. H.B. 61 (2014) gave authority to the Air Quality Board to make rules specifying the requirements and procedures of the CARROT Program, which this rule does.
Summary of written comments received during and since the last five-year review of the rule from interested persons supporting or opposing the rule:
This rule has been amended once during the five-year period and no comments were received during the public comment period of the amendment. No other comments were received 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:
Rule R307-125 specifies the requirements and procedures of the Clean Air Retrofit, Replacement and Off-Road Technology Program that is authorized in Section 19-2-203, including how the director may allocate funds and how grants and exchange, rebate, or low-cost purchase awards are applied for and awarded. Therefore, this rule should be continued.
