The law requires that an agency accept public comment on Proposed Rules published in the September 1, 2016, issue of the Utah State Bulletin until at least October 3, 2016 (the Bulletin is the parent publication of the Digest). The agency may accept comment beyond this date and will indicate the last day the agency will accept comment in the rule information published below. The agency may also hold public hearings. Additionally, citizens or organizations may request the agency hold a hearing on a specific Proposed Rule. Section 63G-3-302 requires that a hearing request be received by the agency proposing the rule "in writing not more than 15 days after the publication date of the proposed rule."

Facility Design and Operation: Pump Stations. SUMMARY OF THE RULE OR CHANGE: Rule R309-540 will be repealed and a substantially reorganized rule with a new title, Facility Design and Operation: Pumping Facilities, will be reenacted in its place. Revisions to the current rule include deleting requirements that are unnecessary or without a logical or practical basis, revising requirements that are unnecessarily specific or overly broad to be useful in the design of pumping facilities, rewording unclear requirements, updating terms, and reorganizing the rule. Most of the current rule requirements are included in the proposed rule but many are reworded and organized differently. The proposed rule to be reenacted in place of the current rule is organized according to the following plan with the following changes: Section R309-540-1 has minor changes to reflect the proposed new title of the rule but is substantially the same as the current rule. Section R309-540-2 is unchanged. Section R309-540-3 is unchanged. Section R309-540-4 is revised and greatly expanded to gather together in one place all requirements that generally apply to pumping facilities (pumps, pump stations, and hydropneumatic systems). Section R309-540-5 is revised to group together all requirements that apply specifically to pumps. Section R309-540-6 has a revised title and includes requirements that apply specifically to water distribution system booster pumps. Section R309-540-7 is revised to include requirements that apply to pump station structures (buildings, wet wells, stairways/ladders, heating/lighting, ventilation, and remote stations). Section R309-540-8 revises and reorganizes requirements that apply to pressure tank systems. ANTICIPATED COST OR SAVINGS TO: - THE STATE BUDGET: The proposed amendment should entail no costs or savings to the state budget. It should not require additional resources to manage the drinking water program nor should it result in a reduction of resources needed. - LOCAL GOVERNMENTS: The proposed amendment should entail no costs or savings. It places no substantial new requirements on local governments nor relieves them of any existing requirements related to public water systems. - SMALL BUSINESSES: The proposed amendment should entail no costs or savings to small businesses. It places no new requirements on small businesses nor relieves them of any existing requirements related to public water systems. - PERSONS OTHER THAN SMALL BUSINESSES, BUSINESSES, OR LOCAL GOVERNMENTAL ENTITIES: The proposed amendment should entail no costs or savings to persons other than small businesses, businesses, or local government entities. It places no new requirements on persons other than small businesses, businesses, or local governments nor relieves them of any existing requirements related to public water systems. COMPLIANCE COSTS FOR AFFECTED PERSONS: Persons affected by the proposed amendment to Rule R309-540 would be owners and operators of Public Water Systems. The proposed amendment imposes no new compliance costs on these affected persons. COMMENTS BY THE DEPARTMENT HEAD ON THE FISCAL IMPACT THE RULE MAY HAVE ON BUSINESSES: The proposed amendment is expected to have no fiscal impact on businesses. The rule itself only applies to public water systems and would, therefore, only affect businesses as customers or operators of public water systems. Since the proposed amendment imposes no new costs upon public water systems, there are no new fiscal impacts associated with the amendment.

The actual savings are unknown as no committee was ever formed, so the time required is unknown. - LOCAL GOVERNMENTS: The requirements in Rule R313-27 applied only to the Waste Management and Radiation Control Board and are being repealed, therefore, there will be no cost or savings to local government. - SMALL BUSINESSES: The requirements in Rule R313-27 applied only to the Waste Management and Radiation Control Board and are being repealed, therefore, there will be no cost or savings to small business. - PERSONS OTHER THAN SMALL BUSINESSES, BUSINESSES, OR LOCAL GOVERNMENTAL ENTITIES: The requirements in Rule R313-27 applied only to the Waste Management and Radiation Control Board and are being repealed, therefore, there will be no cost or savings to other persons. COMPLIANCE COSTS FOR AFFECTED PERSONS: The requirements in Rule R313-27 are being repealed, therefore, there will be no compliance costs to affected persons. COMMENTS BY THE DEPARTMENT HEAD ON THE FISCAL IMPACT THE RULE MAY HAVE ON BUSINESSES: The requirements in Rule R313-27 applied only to the Waste Management and Radiation Control Board and are being repealed, therefore, there will be no cost impacts to business. INTERESTED PERSONS MAY PRESENT THEIR VIEWS ON THIS RULE BY SUBMITTING WRITTEN COMMENTS NO LATER THAN AT 5:00 PM ON 10/03/2016 DIRECT QUESTIONS REGARDING THIS RULE TO: - Ralph Bohn by phone at 801-536-0212, by FAX at 801-536-0222, or by Internet E-mail at rbohn@utah.gov THIS RULE MAY BECOME EFFECTIVE ON: 10/10/2016 FOR THE FULL TEXT OF THIS DOCUMENT, VISIT: http://www.rules.utah.gov/publicat/bulletin/2016/20160901/40666.htm HEALTH DISEASE CONTROL AND PREVENTION, HEALTH PROMOTION No. 40632 (Amendment): R384-415. Electronic-Cigarette Substance Standards. SUMMARY OF THE RULE OR CHANGE: The majority of the provisions for labeling have been removed from Rule R384-415, including the manufacturer's name, batch number, ingredients, tamper-evident warning, and the nicotine content. The rule's requirement for a safety warning on the label is amended to coincide with the requirements of the FDA Tobacco Control Act Deeming Rule. A separate safety warning specific to nicotine-free products has been added. The amended rule simplifies the restrictions on the retail sale of products that give the impression of a potential health benefit stimulant or are labeled as having colorants for emissions. The requirements limiting the variation of nicotine in a product have been removed. The provisions requiring products to feature tamper-evident packaging have been removed. The requirement that ingredients of electronic-cigarette substances meet certain manufacturing standards have been removed and replaced by a requirement that, by August 2019, the retailers can only sell products approved for sale by the FDA through their pre-market review or substantial equivalent application process. Record-keeping requirements that relate to deleted sections of the rule have been removed. This includes the requirement that retailers have a batch tracing system. ANTICIPATED COST OR SAVINGS TO: - THE STATE BUDGET: The amendments to the rule will not change the implementation of enforcement by the State Health Department. The same enforcement apparatus and cost that was used for the original rule will accommodate these amendments. As such, the State Health Department expects to experience no additional costs or savings. - LOCAL GOVERNMENTS: Since the State funds these enforcement efforts the amendments to the rule will not change the implementation of enforcement. The same enforcement apparatus and cost that was used for the original rule will accommodate these amendments. As such, no additional costs or savings are anticipated. - SMALL BUSINESSES: The State Health Department anticipates that small businesses will experience reduced costs because of the amendments to the rule. Savings will occur because of amendments that remove the requirement that products must have tamper-evident packaging, leak-resistant packaging, and certain labeling provisions. Also, the retailer will no longer be expected to maintain a batch tracing system. The State Health Department estimates that a Utah e-liquid seller would experience savings of $0 to $73,000 during the first year of enforcement. The Department cannot estimate the savings to the industry as a whole because the number of sellers is unknown. The Department expects that additions to the rule will not increase costs above what was estimated in previous iterations of the rule. It is expected that, because of the rule, a Utah e-liquid seller would experience costs of $10,000 to $450,000 during the first year of enforcement. Costs are most likely to result from lost sales due to non-compliant product. However, the majority of the rule requirements are based on federal regulations that businesses would already be expected to follow. The only exception is that the Utah rule places a restriction on the sale of high nicotine products and those that market themselves as containing healthful additives. The Department cannot estimate the cost to the industry as a whole because the number of sellers is unknown. It is expected that small general retailers will incur little cost through the enforcement of the rule. General retailers typically sell manufacturer-sealed electronic-cigarette substances, which are exempt from the rule. General retailers may experience some cost through educating staff on the rule or through incurring local enforcement fines. However, because the number of small general retailers who sell these products is unknown, the Department cannot estimate the total cost they will incur. The e-liquid seller could also face non-fiscal costs and benefits. The requirement of a safety warning may be perceived as an infringement of free speech. Also, sellers may feel wrongfully deprived of property if a local health department exercises its authority to seize goods it has determined to be a danger to public health. With the amendments to the rule this event is less likely to occur. However, the use of federal regulations in the state rule will decrease any perceived sense of inequality between what is expected in Utah and the regulations of other states. - PERSONS OTHER THAN SMALL BUSINESSES, BUSINESSES, OR LOCAL GOVERNMENTAL ENTITIES: These amendments will decrease the cost of compliance to businesses in the state. Those savings can be passed on to consumers in the price of electronic cigarette products. The Department cannot estimate the total savings to the consumer due to varying circumstances of the individual retailers. However, the amendment to loosen the requirements on labeling and packaging may impose costs on other members of the public. Provisions have been removed from the rule that may have prevented nicotine poisonings. As such, the public may experience medical costs they would not have had if certain labeling and packaging requirements had not been removed. It is difficult to estimate what this cost would be due to a wide range of potential medical circumstances. General retailers may experience some cost through educating staff on the rule or through incurring local enforcement fines. However, because the number of general retailers who sell these products is unknown, the Department cannot estimate the total cost they will incur. COMPLIANCE COSTS FOR AFFECTED PERSONS: The department expects that additions to the rule will not increase costs above what was estimated in previous iterations of the rule. Amendments to the rule are based on federal regulations that businesses are expected to follow. The only change in the rule that would cause a business to change its practices would be the amended requirements to the safety warning. Not only is this based on a federal standard, but also the amendment will not cost more than what has been estimated in previous iterations of this rule. The rule retains the restrictions on the sale of high nicotine products and those that market themselves as containing healthful additives. These provisions were present in previous iterations of the rule and will not add a cost to business above what has been estimated before. The majority of amendments remove requirements and thus will reduce the cost to business. As such, the department estimates that a Utah e-liquid seller would experience costs of $10,000 to $450,000 during the first year of compliance. Again, rule amendments have not added to compliance costs. Provisions that already existed in the rule contribute to the provided cost estimate and largely result from lost sales from non-compliance product. It is expected that general retailers will incur little compliance cost because the majority of the products they sell are exempt from the rule. The small portion of general retailers that will come under regulation may experience: 1) a negligible loss in sales; 2) some cost through educating staff; and 3) potential fines through local enforcement. COMMENTS BY THE DEPARTMENT HEAD ON THE FISCAL IMPACT THE RULE MAY HAVE ON BUSINESSES: The purpose of the amendment is to bring the rule into conformance with the FDA's Tobacco Control Act Deeming Rule. The majority of the provisions for labeling have been removed since they are now superceded by the Deeming Rule. The amendment simplifies retail sale restrictions and removes any limits addressing variations of nicotine in a product. It also removes the requirements addressing tamper-evident packaging and requirements addressing ingredients of electronic-cigarette substances. It also removes any related record keeping requirements. The amendment will fiscally impact business by decreasing the cost of compliance with the deleted rule requirements.

Temporary Mass Gatherings Sanitation. SUMMARY OF THE RULE OR CHANGE: Citations to authorizing statutes now include Sections 26-1-5 and 26-1-30. The definition of a temporary mass gathering is changed to be 1,000 people for 2 hours or more per day. The definitions for "operator" and "wastewater" are clarified. Changes are made to accommodate the change from 500 to 1,000 people. Temporary mass gathering limits are changed from 30 days to 16 consecutive days. Requirements for medical personnel are clarified and simplified. Information to be included in applications is updated. Requirements for how permitting by the local health departments is accomplished and a subsection pertaining to appeals are removed since such requirements fall outside the purview of Title 26 and are covered in Title 26a. Parking areas are now included as part of an event site which would be required to be kept clean and in good repair. Changes are made to solid waste, site maintenance, drinking water, and waste water requirements. ANTICIPATED COST OR SAVINGS TO: - THE STATE BUDGET: There are no anticipated costs or savings at the state level. Any costs or savings will come out of existing budgets. - LOCAL GOVERNMENTS: There may be a loss of permit fees, from $0 to $8,000 annually, to individual local health departments or other municipal entities using this rule due to fewer permits needing to be issued. Any costs or savings will come out of existing budgets. There are no anticipated costs or savings for existing events currently in compliance with this rule. - SMALL BUSINESSES: There are no anticipated costs for existing events currently in compliance with this rule. There may be savings to businesses due to fewer permits being required, including permits for events across multiple health department jurisdictions. Permit costs for events less than 1,000 people may vary depending on the duration, type, and location of events and may be in the range of $0 to $250. A precise number of permits to not be issued as a result of these amendments cannot be calculated due to a lack of data, but is estimated to be around 80 statewide. - PERSONS OTHER THAN SMALL BUSINESSES, BUSINESSES, OR LOCAL GOVERNMENTAL ENTITIES: There are no anticipated costs for existing events currently in compliance with this rule. There may be savings due to fewer permits being required, including permits for events across multiple health department jurisdictions. Permit costs for events less than 1,000 people may vary depending on the duration, type, and location of events and may be in the range of $0 to $250. A precise number of permits to not be issued as a result of these amendments cannot be calculated due to a lack of data, but is estimated to be around 80 statewide. COMPLIANCE COSTS FOR AFFECTED PERSONS: These changes may specifically affect fun runs which cross over multiple health jurisdictions. The change in definition of a temporary mass gathering may require fewer permits needing to be issued resulting in a possible savings for those persons. There are no anticipated additional costs associated with these changes. COMMENTS BY THE DEPARTMENT HEAD ON THE FISCAL IMPACT THE RULE MAY HAVE ON BUSINESSES: There would be no fiscal impact to business because it is already a requirement in the existing rule.

State Authorization Reciprocity Agreement Rule. SUMMARY OF THE RULE OR CHANGE: This rule establishes definitions, application procedures, surety requirements, eligibility requirements, and complaint procedures for higher education institutions that wish to join the State Authorization Reciprocity Agreements. The reciprocity agreement allows participating member institutions to avoid licensing and costs of compliance from each state in which it provides educational activities. ANTICIPATED COST OR SAVINGS TO: - THE STATE BUDGET: This program is self-funding through fees, depending on the size of the institution that wishes to apply. The reciprocity agreement is entirely voluntary for public and private institutions of higher education. Fees collected cover the administrative costs only. - LOCAL GOVERNMENTS: This has no impact on local government. The reciprocity agreement is only available for accredited institutions of higher education (both private and public), which, in my understanding, do not qualify as local governments. Local governments do not participate in or are impacted by an institution's voluntary participation in these agreements. - SMALL BUSINESSES: Presently, there are approximately 18 for-profit colleges operating in Utah. Some of them may qualify as small businesses. They all have the same requirement to comply with Utah's consumer protection laws but are not otherwise governed by the state system of higher education. This rule will not change that. However, small private institutions of higher education that wish to engage in online education in other states may join the State Authorization Reciprocity Agreement. To do that, they will have to also comply with the consumer protection laws of those states as well, which could incur the cost of licensing and/or compliance. Those costs are difficult to quantify for purposes of this rule because they would depend on the size the of the college and the state in which the college wishes to engage in educational activities. Those same colleges, however, can voluntarily join in the reciprocity agreement, which will allow the institution to avoid the costs associated with compliance in other states. Those that voluntarily choose to join the consortium will incur an annual fee. The fee will be based on the size of the institution but will likely be $2,000 for small institutions. - PERSONS OTHER THAN SMALL BUSINESSES, BUSINESSES, OR LOCAL GOVERNMENTAL ENTITIES: There are no other impacts. Institutions of higher education that wish to participate must meet the same consumer protection requirements as they normally would when engaging in educational activities in Utah or any other state. COMPLIANCE COSTS FOR AFFECTED PERSONS: Participation in the reciprocity agreement is voluntary. Institutions of higher education who wish to participate must meet the same consumer protection requirements as they normally would when engaging in educational activities in Utah or any other state. Therefore, there is no compliance cost associated with this rule. COMMENTS BY THE DEPARTMENT HEAD ON THE FISCAL IMPACT THE RULE MAY HAVE ON BUSINESSES: Because participation is voluntary, public and private institutions may choose not to join the consortium and thereby avoid the application fees. However, all institutions bear the cost of licensing and compliance with consumer protection laws in each state they provide educational activities. Entities that enter into the SARA agreements will likely save costs because they do not need to go through the cost and administrative burden of licensing in each individual state they provide educational activities, including online education.

The Extension permits the agency to file the review up to 120 days beyond the anniversary date. Agencies have filed Extensions for the rules listed below. The "Extended Due Date" is 120 days after the anniversary date. Extensions are governed by Subsection 63G-3-305(6). TRANSPORTATION ADMINISTRATION No. 40644 (Five-Year Extension): R907-63.

In the case of Proposed Rules or Changes in Proposed Rules with a designated comment period, the law permits an agency to make a rule effective no fewer than seven calendar days after the close of the public comment period, nor more than 120 days after the publication date. In the case of Changes in Proposed Rules with no designated comment period, the law permits an agency to make a rule effective on any date including or after the thirtieth day after the rule's publication date, but not more than 120 days after the publication date. If an agency fails to file a Notice of Effective Date within 120 days from the publication of a Proposed Rule or a related Change in Proposed Rule the rule lapses. Agencies have notified the Office of Administrative Rules that the rules listed below have been made effective. Notices of Effective Date are governed by Subsection 63G-3-301(12), Section 63G-3-303, and Sections R15-4-5a and R15-4-5b.
