EXECUTIVE DOCUMENTS

Under authority granted by the Utah Constitution and various federal and 
state statutes, the Governor periodically issues Executive Documents, which 
can be categorized as either Executive Orders, Proclamations, and 
Declarations. Executive Orders set policy for the executive branch; create 
boards and commissions; provide for the transfer of authority; or otherwise 
interpret, implement, or give administrative effect to a provision of the 
Constitution, state law or executive policy. Proclamations call special or 
extraordinary legislative sessions; designate classes of cities; publish 
states-of-emergency; promulgate other official formal public announcements or 
functions; or publicly avow or cause certain matters of state government to 
be made generally known. Declarations designate special days, weeks or other 
time periods; call attention to or recognize people, groups, organizations, 
functions, or similar actions having a public purpose; or invoke specific 
legislative purposes (such as the declaration of an agricultural disaster). 

The Governor's Office staff files Executive Documents that have legal effect 
with the Office of Administrative Rules for publication and distribution.

NOTICES OF PROPOSED RULES

A state agency may file a Proposed Rule when it determines the need for a 
substantive change to an existing rule.  With a Notice of Proposed Rule, an 
agency may create a new rule, amend an existing rule, repeal an existing 
rule, or repeal an existing rule and reenact a new rule.  Filings received 
between May 2, 2017, 12:00 a.m., and May 15, 2017, 11:59 p.m. are summarized 
in this, the June 1, 2017, issue of the Utah State Digest.

The law requires that an agency accept public comment on Proposed Rules 
published in the June 1, 2017, issue of the Utah State Bulletin until at 
least July 3, 2017 (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."

From the end of the public comment period through September 29, 2017, the 
agency may notify the Office of Administrative Rules that it wants to make 
the Proposed Rule effective.  The agency sets the effective date.  The date 
may be 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 Utah 
State Bulletin.  Alternatively, the agency may file a Change in Proposed Rule 
in response to comments received.  If the Office of Administrative Rules does 
not receive a Notice of Effective Date or a Change in Proposed Rule, the 
Proposed Rule lapses.

The public, interest groups, and governmental agencies are invited to review 
and comment on the Proposed Rules listed below.  Comment may be directed to 
the contact person identified with each rule. 

Proposed Rules are governed by Section 63G-3-301, Rule R15-2, and Sections 
R15-4-3, R15-4-4, R15-4-5a, R15-4-9, and R15-4-10.

COMMERCE
REAL ESTATE
No. 41618 (Amendment): R162-2c. Utah Residential Mortgage Practices and 
Licensing Rules.
SUMMARY OF THE RULE OR CHANGE:  This rule amendment in Section R162-2c-201 
will:  1) eliminate the requirement that a mortgage loan originator pass a 
test with Utah-specific questions and instead will provide that passing a 
national test with uniform state content is sufficient for application for 
licensure; 2) clarify the timing and reorder the procedures for applying for 
a lending manager license; 3) clarify the experience required for an 
applicant for licensure as a lending manager and notify an applicant that 
failure to adequately document experience will result in the denial of an 
application for licensure; 4) allow a lending manager applicant who passes 
one test portion of the exam but fails the other 90 days to pass failed 
portion; and 5) establish that a lending manager applicant has 90 days from 
achieving a passing score on both portions of the licensing exam and 12 
months from completion of pre-licensing education to submit an application 
for licensure.  The amendments in Section R162-2c-204 require all mortgage 
loan originators newly licensed in Utah to complete a division-approved 
continuing education course prior to renewing their license at the end of the 
first full calendar year of licensure.
ANTICIPATED COST OR SAVINGS TO:
- THE STATE BUDGET:  The Division of Real Estate has the staff and budget in 
place to administer this proposed amendment.  It is not expected that the 
proposed amendment will affect those resources or result in any additional 
cost or savings to the state budget.
- LOCAL GOVERNMENTS:  Local governments are not required to comply with or 
enforce the Utah Residential Mortgage Practices and Licensing rules.  No 
fiscal impact to local government is expected from the proposed amendment.
- SMALL BUSINESSES:  The proposed amendment does not create new obligations 
for small businesses nor does it increase the cost associated with any 
existing obligation.  No fiscal impact to small business is expected from the 
proposed amendment.
- PERSONS OTHER THAN SMALL BUSINESSES, BUSINESSES, OR LOCAL GOVERNMENTAL 
ENTITIES: The proposed amendment does not create new obligations for persons 
other than small businesses, businesses, or local government entities nor 
does it increase the cost associated with any existing obligation.  No fiscal 
impact to persons other than small businesses, businesses, or local 
government entities is expected from the proposed amendment.
COMPLIANCE COSTS FOR AFFECTED PERSONS:  The proposed amendment recognizes the 
Uniform State Test approved by statutory amendment in 2017 and makes changes 
in the administrative rules in order to be consistent with the statutory 
amendment.  To offset the Utah-specific test questions required under the 
prior testing system, the Mortgage Commission has provided for a new 
continuing education course requirement for mortgage loan originators newly 
licensed in Utah.  The newly licensed mortgage loan originators will pay a 
fee for this course.  Private education providers will teach the course and 
charge a fee to attendees.  The mortgage industry overwhelmingly supported 
the adoption of the Uniform Standard Test despite the time and costs 
associated with the proposed continuing education course.  Because the 
proposed continuing education course will be taught by private education 
providers and because the course requirements have not yet been determined, 
the division is unable to provide a specific estimate of the cost of the 
course to affected persons but the cost is likely to be in the range of $50 
to $100.  Compliance with other provisions of the proposed amendment are not 
anticipated to result in a financial impact or cost to affected persons.
COMMENTS BY THE DEPARTMENT HEAD ON THE FISCAL IMPACT THE RULE MAY HAVE ON 
BUSINESSES:  The proposed amendment to Section R162-2c-201 of the rule 
eliminates the requirement that a mortgage loan originator pass a test with 
Utah-specific questions for licensure, and substitutes in its place a 
requirement for passing the nationally recognized Uniform Standard Test.  The 
propose amendment to Section R162-2c-201 also:  1) clarifies the timing and 
re-orders the procedures for applying for a lending manager license; 2) 
clarifies the experience required  for an applicant for licensure as a 
lending manager and notifies the applicant that failure to adequately 
document their experience will result in the denial of an application for 
licensure; 3) allows a lending manager applicant 90 days to pass a failed 
portion of the test, if the applicant passes one portion of the exam but 
fails the other portion; and 4) provides time limitations for submitting an 
application for licensure after completion of pre-licensing education and 
testing.  No fiscal impact to small business will result from these rule 
changes.  To offset the elimination of the Utah-specific questions for 
licensure, the proposed amendment to Section R162-2c-204 of the rule requires 
all mortgage loan originators newly licensed in Utah to complete a division-
approved continuing education course prior to renewing their license at the 
end of the first full calendar year of licensure.  The specific course 
requirements have not been determined.  However, it has been determined that 
the course will consist of five credit hours of continuing education, in 
addition to the current number of required credit hours.  It is anticipated 
that the cost of this five hour course will be between $50 and $100 for each 
newly licensed mortgage loan originator

the procurement unit for the Board; and provides exceptions to Title R33.
ANTICIPATED COST OR SAVINGS TO:

anticipated cost or savings to local government resulting from implementation

No. 41647 (Amendment): R277-474-3. General Provisions.
SUMMARY OF THE RULE OR CHANGE:  The amendments to Section R277-474-3 removes 
language in the rule that prohibits advocacy of homosexuality in health 
education and adds language in the rule that prohibits instruction that 
advocates premarital or extramarital sexual activity consistent with S.B. 196 
(2017).
ANTICIPATED COST OR SAVINGS TO:
- THE STATE BUDGET:  There will be some increased costs incurred by the Board 
as a result of changes to the General Core in health instruction.  Any costs 
and responsibilities associated with implementation of this rule and changes 
to the General Core will be absorbed within existing budgets and with 
existing staff.
- LOCAL GOVERNMENTS:  There may be some increased costs incurred by school 
districts and charter schools as a result of changes to the General Core in 
health instruction.  Any costs and responsibilities associated with 
implementation of this rule and changes to the General Core will be absorbed 
within existing budgets and with existing staff.
- SMALL BUSINESSES:  Changes to this rule affect the Utah Board of Education 
(Board) as it will need to amend the General Core to be consistent with state 
law.  There are likely no costs or savings to small businesses.
- PERSONS OTHER THAN SMALL BUSINESSES, BUSINESSES, OR LOCAL GOVERNMENTAL 
ENTITIES: Changes to this rule affect the Board as it will need to amend the

No. 41648 (Amendment): R277-487. Public School Data Confidentiality and 
Disclosure.
SUMMARY OF THE RULE OR CHANGE:  The amendments to this rule provide standards 
and procedures for Utah Board of Education (Board) and local education agency 
(LEA) employees to ensure student data privacy consistent with the Utah 
Student Privacy Act.  The amendments include provisions for required 
training; identification of local school board or charter school governing 
board employees who are authorized to access education records; and prohibits 
local school board, charter school governing board, and public school 
employees from sharing an education record with an employee who is not 
authorized.
ANTICIPATED COST OR SAVINGS TO:
- THE STATE BUDGET:  The amendments to this rule require the Board to develop 
student data privacy policies and training to ensure student data privacy 
statewide.  The Board received an appropriation during the 2017 General 
Session to cover the costs of the new program.
- LOCAL GOVERNMENTS:  The amendments to this rule require LEAs to develop 
student data privacy policies and training to ensure student data privacy.  
Training and other compliance at the local level will likely be performed by 
existing employees and within existing budgets.
- SMALL BUSINESSES:  The amendments to this rule require training to ensure 
student data privacy and apply to the public education system, so there will 
likely be no result cost or savings to small businesses.
- PERSONS OTHER THAN SMALL BUSINESSES, BUSINESSES, OR LOCAL GOVERNMENTAL 
ENTITIES: The amendments to this rule require training to ensure student data 
privacy, which likely will not result in a cost or savings to persons other 
than small businesses, businesses, or local government entities.  Training 
will be performed at the state and local level which will likely be performed 
by existing employees and within existing budgets.
COMPLIANCE COSTS FOR AFFECTED PERSONS:  The amendments to this rule require 
training to ensure student data privacy, which likely will not result in any 
compliance costs for affected persons.  Training will be performed at the 
state and local level which will likely be performed by existing employees 
and within existing budgets.

ENVIRONMENTAL QUALITY
AIR QUALITY
No. 41626 (Amendment): R307-122. General Requirements:  Heavy Duty Vehicle 
Tax Credit.
SUMMARY OF THE RULE OR CHANGE:  Rule R307-122 has been amended to include 
references that are consistent with the most recent changes in Section 59-10-
1033.  This includes adding "100% electric drivetrain" and "hydrogen-electric 
drivetrain" wherever the rule previously mentioned "OEM natural gas vehicle."
ANTICIPATED COST OR SAVINGS TO:
- THE STATE BUDGET:  The proposed amendment does not impact the state budget 
because the Utah Code already includes the new definition of a "qualified 
heavy duty vehicle."  Rule R307-122 only provides procedures that help 
implement the program that is already required by Section 59-10-1033.  Also, 
the fiscal note attached to S.B. 24, which prompted this rule amendment, 
states a cost of $0.  The cost of adding new types of vehicles to the 
"qualified vehicle" list is zero because there is a dollar limit on the total 
money spent on tax credits that was not impacted by S.B. 24.  Once the money 
has been spent, there are no longer any tax credits awarded during that year, 
regardless of which type of vehicles apply for the credit.
- LOCAL GOVERNMENTS:  The proposed amendment does not impact money spent by 
local governments because the Utah Code already includes the new definition 
of a "qualified heavy duty vehicle."  Rule R307-122 only provides procedures 
that help implement the program that is already required by Section 59-10-
1033.  Also, the fiscal note attached to S.B. 24, which prompted this rule 
amendment, states a cost of $0.  The cost of adding new types of vehicles to 
the "qualified vehicle" list is zero because there is a dollar limit on the 
total money spent on tax credits that was not impacted by S.B. 24.  Once the 
money has been spent, there are no longer any tax credits awarded during that 
year, regardless of which type of vehicles apply for the credit.
- SMALL BUSINESSES:  This rule amendment will not cost small businesses any 
money because the rule is merely a set of procedures that must be followed to 
qualify for a tax credit for owning a "qualified heavy duty vehicle."  
However, the rule could help small businesses save money if they take 
advantage of the tax credit.  The tax credit is worth up to $25,000 
(Subsection 59-10-1033(2)(a)).
- PERSONS OTHER THAN SMALL BUSINESSES, BUSINESSES, OR LOCAL GOVERNMENTAL 
ENTITIES: This rule amendment will not cost "other persons" any money because 
the rule is merely a set of procedures on obtaining a tax credit for owning a 
"qualified heavy duty vehicle."  However, the rule could help people who are 
not small businesses, businesses, or local government entities save money if 
they take advantage of the tax credit.  The tax credit may be as high as 
$25,000 (Subsection 59-10-1033(2)(a)).
COMPLIANCE COSTS FOR AFFECTED PERSONS:  No compliance costs are anticipated 
for affected persons because the rule will still be implemented in the same 
way as before, which did not include any compliance costs.  The only change 
is that there are now more people who are eligible to receive the tax credit.  
People only have to comply with this rule if they want to receive the tax 
credit.  If a person does comply with the rule and receives a tax credit, 
then they will end up saving money.
COMMENTS BY THE DEPARTMENT HEAD ON THE FISCAL IMPACT THE RULE MAY HAVE ON 
BUSINESSES:  This rule amendment will not cost businesses any money because 
the rule is merely a set of procedures that must be followed to qualify for a 
tax credit for owning a "qualified heavy duty vehicle."  However, the rule 
could help businesses save money if they take advantage of the tax credit.  
The tax credit is worth up to $25,000 (Subsection 59-10-1033(2)(a)).

No. 41627 (New Rule): R307-230. NOx Emission Limits for Natural Gas-Fired 
Water Heaters.
SUMMARY OF THE RULE OR CHANGE:  Rule R307-230 incorporates the NOx emission 
limits for natural gas-fired water heaters found in the Building Code into 
the Utah Air Quality rules.
ANTICIPATED COST OR SAVINGS TO:
- THE STATE BUDGET:  This rule does not impact the state budget because the 
emission standards for natural gas-fired water heaters are already required 
by the Utah Building Code (Section 15A-6-102).
- LOCAL GOVERNMENTS:  This rule does not impact local government budgets 
because the emission standards for natural gas-fired water heaters are 
already required by the Utah Building Code (Section 15A-6-102).
- SMALL BUSINESSES:  This rule does not have a fiscal impact on small 
businesses because the emission standards for natural gas-fired water heaters 
are already required by the Utah Building Code (Section 15A-6-102).
- PERSONS OTHER THAN SMALL BUSINESSES, BUSINESSES, OR LOCAL GOVERNMENTAL 
ENTITIES: This rule does not impact persons other than small businesses, 
businesses, or local government entities because the emission standards for 
natural gas-fired water heaters are already required by the Utah Building 
Code (Section 15A-6-102).
COMPLIANCE COSTS FOR AFFECTED PERSONS:  There is no compliance cost because 
the Utah Building Code already requires the emission limits that are being 
incorporated by this rule.
COMMENTS BY THE DEPARTMENT HEAD ON THE FISCAL IMPACT THE RULE MAY HAVE ON 
BUSINESSES:  This rule does not have a fiscal impact on businesses because 
the emission standards for natural gas-fired water heaters are already 
required by the Utah Building Code (Section 15A-6-102).
INTERESTED PERSONS MAY PRESENT THEIR VIEWS ON THIS RULE BY SUBMITTING WRITTEN

No. 41628 (Amendment): R307-309. Nonattainment and Maintenance Areas for PM10 
and PM2.5:  Fugitive Emissions and Fugitive Dust.
SUMMARY OF THE RULE OR CHANGE:  The rule is being changed to add an 
affirmative requirement that sources keep compliance records for a period of 
two years.  Other changes to the rule include:  1) language that was added to 
Section R307-309-3 to emphasize that the rule applies to fugitive dust 
sources one-quarter acre or greater; 2) a clarification on the method for 
observing fugitive emissions that allows people to observe emissions at 
varying lengths of duration, not just six minutes; and 3) an explicit 
statement that fugitive dust plans are still required for the activities 
mentioned in Sections R307-309-7 through R307-309-11.  These numbered changes 
mainly add clarity to the rule, and they do not change the way that the 
Division of Air Quality has previously interpreted those sections.
ANTICIPATED COST OR SAVINGS TO:
- THE STATE BUDGET:  There is no anticipated cost or savings to the state 
budget because the only new requirement for third parties (including the 
state) is to keep records of compliance for two years.  This will not add any 
costs because the sources were already required to keep records to 
demonstrate compliance.  Previously, there was no limit on the amount of time 
that sources had to maintain records.  However, most sources already kept the 
records for two years because that is the statute of limitations for the Utah 
Environmental Code (Section 78B-2-307.5).  Therefore, there is no predicted 
change in the cost as a result of this rule change.
- LOCAL GOVERNMENTS:  There is no anticipated cost or savings to local 
governments because the only new requirement for third parties (including 
local governments) is to keep records of compliance for two years.  This will 
not add any costs because the sources were already required to keep records 
to demonstrate compliance.  Previously, there was no limit on the amount of 
time that sources had to maintain records.  However, most sources already 
kept the records for two years because that is the statute of limitations for 
the Utah Environmental Code (Section 78B-2-307.5).  Therefore, there is no 
predicted change in the cost as a result of this rule change.
- SMALL BUSINESSES:  There is no anticipated cost or savings to small 
businesses because the only new requirement for third parties is to keep 
records of compliance for two years.  This will not add any costs because the 
sources were already required to keep records to demonstrate compliance.  
Previously, there was no limit on the amount of time that sources had to 
maintain records.  However, most sources already kept the records for two 
years because that is the statute of limitations for the Utah Environmental 
Code (Section 78B-2-307.5).  Therefore, there is no predicted change in the 
cost as a result of this rule change.
- PERSONS OTHER THAN SMALL BUSINESSES, BUSINESSES, OR LOCAL GOVERNMENTAL 
ENTITIES: There is no anticipated cost or savings to people other than small 
business, businesses, or local governments because the only new requirement 
for third parties is to keep records of compliance for two years.  This will 
not add any costs because the sources were already required to keep records 
to demonstrate compliance.  Previously, there was no limit on the amount of 
time that sources had to maintain records.  However, most sources already 
kept the records for two years because that is the statute of limitations for 
the Utah Environmental Code (Section 78B-2-307.5).  Therefore, there is no 
predicted change in the cost as a result of this rule change.
COMPLIANCE COSTS FOR AFFECTED PERSONS:  There is no compliance cost for 
affected persons as a result of this rule change because the sources already 
were required to keep records for compliance for at least two years.  Now the 
sources are able to dispose of the records after two years.  This does not 
add any compliance costs.
COMMENTS BY THE DEPARTMENT HEAD ON THE FISCAL IMPACT THE RULE MAY HAVE ON 
BUSINESSES:  There is no anticipated cost or savings to businesses because 
the only new requirement for third parties is to keep records of compliance 
for two years.  This will not add any costs because the sources were already 
required to keep records to demonstrate compliance.  Previously, there was no 
limit on the amount of time that sources had to maintain records.  However, 
most sources already kept the records for two years because that is the 
statute of limitations for the Utah Environmental Code (Section 78B-2-307.5).  
Therefore, there is no predicted change in the cost as a result of this rule 
change.

WASTE MANAGEMENT AND RADIATION CONTROL, WASTE MANAGEMENT
No. 41650 (Amendment): R315-15. Standards for the Management of Used Oil.
SUMMARY OF THE RULE OR CHANGE:  On 04/13/2017, the Waste Management and 
Radiation Control Board authorized the proposed changes to be published for 
public review and comment.  Proposed changes to Section R315-15-1 reflect 
those corresponding revisions made by the final HWGIR to 40 CFR 279, as 
promulgated on 11/28/2016 (81 FR 85732), by replacing "conditionally exempt" 
with "very" and amending the citation to Section R315-262-14.  Proposed 
changes to Section R315-15-10 clarify the text regarding sudden accidental 
and non-sudden accidental releases and correct certain citations.  Proposed 
changes to Section R315-15-12 correct subsection numbering.  The proposed 
change to Section R315-15-13 adds to the list of NAICS codes, 485111 Mixed 
Mode Transit Systems, to allow qualifying transit systems to transport their 
own used oil to a permitted used oil recycler.  The proposed changes to 
Section R315-15-17 remove the word "liability" to be more correct.  
Specifically, incorporating into Rule R315-15 and into the other companion 
rules of Title R315, the revisions promulgated by EPA make significant 
improvements to the hazardous waste generation requirements by:  1) 
reorganizing and consolidating the generator requirements for added 
convenience and clarity, 2) providing added flexibility for generators to 
manage their hazardous waste in a more cost-effective and equally protective 
manner, and 3) revising the title of the lowest category of hazardous waste 
generation from "conditionally exempt small quantity generator" to "very 
small quantity generator".  The change in the title of the lowest category of 
hazardous waste generation will result in less confusion on the part of 
hazardous waste generators regarding the essential requirements for managing 
hazardous waste produced in very small quantities.  Changing the title of 
this generation category to "very small quantity generator" makes clear that 
limited rules apply to the generation and management of hazardous waste in 
very small quantities rather than potentially mislead by using the phrase 
"conditionally exempt," which may imply that no requirements or rules apply.
ANTICIPATED COST OR SAVINGS TO:
- THE STATE BUDGET:  Based on EPA's regulatory impact assessment (September 
2016) for the HWGIR, state agencies that generate hazardous waste may realize 
an undetermined portion of the aggregate annual net cost savings of $3,600 to 
$13,100 for all Utah hazardous waste generators.  The proposed change to 
allow qualifying mixed mode transit systems to transport their own used oil 
to a permitted used oil recycler will result in saving the cost of 
outsourcing such transportation.  There may be a cost saving to the state 
budget to the extent that state funds are used to support such transportation 
expenses.  Any cost savings will vary depending on the volume of used oil 
transported.
- LOCAL GOVERNMENTS:  Based on EPA's regulatory impact assessment (September 
2016) for the HWGIR, local governments that generate hazardous waste may 
realize an undetermined portion of the aggregate annual net cost savings of 
$3,600 to $13,100 for all Utah hazardous waste generators.  The proposed 
change to allow qualifying mixed mode transit systems to transport their own 
used oil to a permitted used oil recycler will result in saving the cost of 
outsourcing such transportation.  There may be a cost saving to local 
government to the extent that local government funds are used to support such 
transportation expenses.  Any cost savings will vary depending on the volume 
of used oil transported.
- SMALL BUSINESSES:  Based on EPA's regulatory impact assessment (September 
2016) for the HWGIR, small businesses that generate hazardous waste may 
realize an undetermined portion of the aggregate annual net cost savings of 
$3,600 to $13,100 for all Utah hazardous waste generators.  The proposed 
change to allow qualifying mixed mode transit systems to transport their own 
used oil to a permitted used oil recycler will result in saving the cost of 
outsourcing such transportation.  However, this change will likely not have a 
financial impact on small businesses since they typically do not operate 
mixed mode transit systems.
- PERSONS OTHER THAN SMALL BUSINESSES, BUSINESSES, OR LOCAL GOVERNMENTAL 
ENTITIES: Based on EPA's regulatory impact assessment (September 2016) for 
the HWGIR, other persons that generate hazardous waste may realize an 
undetermined portion of the aggregate annual net cost savings of $3,600 to 
$13,100 for all Utah hazardous waste generators.  The proposed change to 
allow qualifying mixed mode transit systems to transport their own used oil 
to a permitted used oil recycler will result in saving the cost of 
outsourcing such transportation.  Any cost savings will vary depending on the 
volume of used oil transported and market conditions for used oil and related 
petroleum products.
COMPLIANCE COSTS FOR AFFECTED PERSONS:  In the regulatory impact assessment 
issued by EPA (September 2016, EPA-HQ-RCRA-2012-0121-0313, regulations.gov) 
for the final HWGIR, EPA estimated that by applying the rule changes, all 
hazardous waste generators can potentially realize a national aggregate net 
compliance cost savings from $722,000 to $2,630,000, annually.  The total 
number of Utah hazardous waste generators is about 0.5% of the national 
total.  Therefore, given the national total, the annual net cost savings to 
all Utah hazardous waste generators may range from $3,600 to $13,100.  The 
proposed change to allow qualifying mixed mode transit systems to transport 
their own used oil to a permitted used oil recycler will result in saving the 
cost of outsourcing such transportation.  Any cost savings will vary 
depending on the volume of used oil transported and market conditions for 
used oil and related petroleum products.

No. 41651 (Amendment): R315-260. Hazardous Waste Management System.
SUMMARY OF THE RULE OR CHANGE:  On 04/13/2017, the Waste Management and 
Radiation Control Board authorized the proposed changes to be published for 
public review and comment.  Proposed changes to Rule R315-260 reflect those 
corresponding revisions made by the final HWGIR to 40 CFR 260, as promulgated 
on 11/28/2016 (81 FR 85732).  While many of the changes are required to 
retain primacy of the hazardous waste program, others provide added 
clarification or correct textual errors.  Specifically, incorporating into

promulgated by EPA make significant improvements to the hazardous waste 
generation requirements by:  1) reorganizing and consolidating the generator

No. 41654 (Amendment): R315-263-12. Transfer Facility Requirements.
SUMMARY OF THE RULE OR CHANGE:  On 04/13/2017, the Waste Management and 
Radiation Control Board authorized the proposed changes to be published for 
public review and comment.  Proposed changes to Rule R315-263 reflect those 
corresponding revisions made by the final HWGIR to 40 CFR 263, as promulgated 
on 11/28/2016 (81 FR 85732).  While many of the changes are required to 
retain primacy of the hazardous waste program, others provide added 
clarification or correct textual errors.  Specifically, incorporating into 
Rule R315-263 and into the other companion rules of Title R315, the revisions 
promulgated by EPA make significant improvements to the hazardous waste 
generation requirements by:  1) reorganizing and consolidating the generator 
requirements for added convenience and clarity, 2) providing added 
flexibility for generators to manage their hazardous waste in a more cost-
effective and equally protective manner, and 3) revising the title of the 
lowest category of hazardous waste generation from "conditionally exempt 
small quantity generator" to "very small quantity generator".  The change in 
the title of the lowest category of hazardous waste generation will result in 
less confusion on the part of hazardous waste generators regarding the 
essential requirements for managing hazardous waste produced in very small 
quantities.  Changing the title of this generation category to "very small 
quantity generator" makes clear that limited rules apply to the generation 
and management of hazardous waste in very small quantities rather than 
potentially mislead by using the phrase "conditionally exempt", which may 
imply that no requirements or rules apply.
ANTICIPATED COST OR SAVINGS TO:
- THE STATE BUDGET:  Based on EPA's regulatory impact assessment (September 
2016) for the HWGIR, state agencies that generate hazardous waste may realize 
an undetermined portion of the aggregate annual net cost savings of $3,600 to 
$13,100 for all Utah hazardous waste generators.
- LOCAL GOVERNMENTS:  Based on EPA's regulatory impact assessment (September 
2016) for the HWGIR, local governments that generate hazardous waste may 
realize an undetermined portion of the aggregate annual net cost savings of 
$3,600 to $13,100 for all Utah hazardous waste generators.
- SMALL BUSINESSES:  Based on EPA's regulatory impact assessment (September 
2016) for the HWGIR, small businesses that generate hazardous waste may 
realize an undetermined portion of the aggregate annual net cost savings of 
$3,600 to $13,100 for all Utah hazardous waste generators.
- PERSONS OTHER THAN SMALL BUSINESSES, BUSINESSES, OR LOCAL GOVERNMENTAL 
ENTITIES: Based on EPA's regulatory impact assessment (September 2016) for 
the HWGIR, other persons that generate hazardous waste may realize an 
undetermined portion of the aggregate annual net cost savings of $3,600 to 
$13,100 for all Utah hazardous waste generators.
COMPLIANCE COSTS FOR AFFECTED PERSONS:  In the regulatory impact assessment 
issued by EPA (September 2016, EPA-HQ-RCRA-2012-0121-0313, regulations.gov) 
for the final HWGIR, EPA estimated that by applying the rule changes, all 
hazardous waste generators can potentially realize a national aggregate net 
compliance cost savings from $722,000 to $2,630,000, annually.  The total 
number of Utah hazardous waste generators is about 0.5% of the national 
total.  Therefore, given the national total, the annual net cost savings to 
all Utah hazardous waste generators may range from $3,600 to $13,100.

Hazardous Waste Treatment, Storage, and Disposal Facilities.
SUMMARY OF THE RULE OR CHANGE:  On 04/13/2017, the Waste Management and 
Radiation Control Board authorized the proposed changes to be published for 
public review and comment.  Proposed changes to Rule R315-264 reflect those 
corresponding revisions made by the final HWGIR to 40 CFR 264, as promulgated 
on 11/28/2016 (81 FR 85732) as well as minor corrections to Section R315-264-
151.  While many of the changes are required to retain primacy of the 
hazardous waste program, others provide added clarification or correct 
textual errors.  Specifically, incorporating into Rule R315-264 and into the 
other companion rules of Title R315, the revisions promulgated by EPA make

SUMMARY OF THE RULE OR CHANGE:  On 04/13/2017, the Waste Management and 
Radiation Control Board authorized the proposed changes to be published for 
public review and comment.  Proposed changes to Section R315-265-1 reflect 
those corresponding revisions made by the final HWGIR to 40 CFR 265, as 
promulgated on 11/28/2016 (81 FR 85732).  The proposed change revises the 
incorporation by reference to include the Federal Register of 11/28/2016.

No. 41660 (Amendment): R315-273. Standards for Universal Waste Management.
SUMMARY OF THE RULE OR CHANGE:  On 04/13/2017, the Waste Management and 
Radiation Control Board authorized the proposed changes to be published for 
public review and comment.  Proposed changes to Rule R315-273 reflect those 
corresponding revisions made by the final HWGIR to 40 CFR 273, as promulgated 
on 11/28/2016 (81 FR 85732).  While many of the changes are required to 
retain primacy of the hazardous waste program, others provide added 
clarification or correct textual errors.  Specifically, incorporating into 
Rule R315-273 and into the other companion rules of Title R315, the revisions 
promulgated by EPA make significant improvements to the hazardous waste 
generation requirements by:  1) reorganizing and consolidating the generator 
requirements for added convenience and clarity, 2) providing added 
flexibility for generators to manage their hazardous waste in a more cost-
effective and equally protective manner, and 3) revising the title of the 
lowest category of hazardous waste generation from "conditionally exempt 
small quantity generator" to "very small quantity generator".  The change in 
the title of the lowest category of hazardous waste generation will result in 
less confusion on the part of hazardous waste generators regarding the 
essential requirements for managing hazardous waste produced in very small 
quantities.  Changing the title of this generation category to "very small 
quantity generator" makes clear that limited rules apply to the generation 
and management of hazardous waste in very small quantities rather than 
potentially mislead by using the phrase "conditionally exempt", which may 
imply that no requirements or rules apply.
ANTICIPATED COST OR SAVINGS TO:
- THE STATE BUDGET:  Based on EPA's regulatory impact assessment (September 
2016) for the HWGIR, state agencies that generate hazardous waste may realize 
an undetermined portion of the aggregate annual net cost savings of $3,600 to 
$13,100 for all Utah hazardous waste generators.
- LOCAL GOVERNMENTS:  Based on EPA's regulatory impact assessment (September 
2016) for the HWGIR, local governments that generate hazardous waste may 
realize an undetermined portion of the aggregate annual net cost savings of 
$3,600 to $13,100 for all Utah hazardous waste generators.
- SMALL BUSINESSES:  Based on EPA's regulatory impact assessment (September 
2016) for the HWGIR, small businesses that generate hazardous waste may 
realize an undetermined portion of the aggregate annual net cost savings of 
$3,600 to $13,100 for all Utah hazardous waste generators.
- PERSONS OTHER THAN SMALL BUSINESSES, BUSINESSES, OR LOCAL GOVERNMENTAL 
ENTITIES: Based on EPA's regulatory impact assessment (September 2016) for 
the HWGIR, other persons that generate hazardous waste may realize an 
undetermined portion of the aggregate annual net cost savings of $3,600 to 
$13,100 for all Utah hazardous waste generators.
COMPLIANCE COSTS FOR AFFECTED PERSONS:  In the regulatory impact assessment 
issued by EPA (September 2016, EPA-HQ-RCRA-2012-0121-0313, regulations.gov) 
for the final HWGIR, EPA estimated that by applying the rule changes, all 
hazardous waste generators can potentially realize a national aggregate net 
compliance cost savings from $722,000 to $2,630,000, annually.  The total 
number of Utah hazardous waste generators is about 0.5% of the national 
total.  Therefore, given the national total, the annual net cost savings to 
all Utah hazardous waste generators may range from $3,600 to $13,100.

No. 41661 (Amendment): R315-301-2. Definitions.
SUMMARY OF THE RULE OR CHANGE:  On 04/13/2017, the Waste Management and 
Radiation Control Board authorized the proposed changes to be published for 
public review and comment.  Proposed changes to Section R315-301-2 reflect 
those corresponding revisions made by the final HWGIR to 40 CFR 258, as

ANTICIPATED COST OR SAVINGS TO:
- THE STATE BUDGET:  No impact on the state budget as compliance to the rule 
affects the financial institutions themselves not the department.
- LOCAL GOVERNMENTS:  The rule does not affect local government.  Therefore 
there are no cost or savings to local government.
- SMALL BUSINESSES:  Persons subject to the jurisdiction of the Department of 
Financial Institutions under Title 7, Chapter 23, are currently required to 
comply with this rule and modifications to the rule should have minimal 
budgetary impact.  Persons employing fewer than 50 persons will have added 
costs of retaining the records.  The amount of any cost or savings cannot be 
estimated as it will vary depending on circumstances.
- PERSONS OTHER THAN SMALL BUSINESSES, BUSINESSES, OR LOCAL GOVERNMENTAL 
ENTITIES: Persons subject to the jurisdiction of the Department of Financial 
Institutions under Title 7, Chapter 23, are currently required to comply with 
this rule and modifications to the rule should have minimal budgetary impact.

GOVERNOR
ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT
No. 41649 (New Rule): R357-20. Education Computing Partnerships.
SUMMARY OF THE RULE OR CHANGE:  Subsection 63N-12-214(4) requires the STEM 
Action Center, in consultation with the Utah State Board of Education, make 
rules for the administration of the grant program and awarding of grants; and 
define outcome-based measures appropriate to the type of grant awarded under 
this part of the Utah Code.
ANTICIPATED COST OR SAVINGS TO:
- THE STATE BUDGET:  There is no cost or savings to the state budget because 
this rule is part of a program funded by the legislature as part of S.B. 190 
from the 2017 General Session.
- LOCAL GOVERNMENTS:  This rule does not affect local governments directly in 
any cost or savings but does provide how a local education agency may apply 
for the grants this rule outlines the process for.
- SMALL BUSINESSES:  Small businesses will not be affected by this rule 
because they cannot apply for the grants this rule addresses.
- PERSONS OTHER THAN SMALL BUSINESSES, BUSINESSES, OR LOCAL GOVERNMENTAL 
ENTITIES: There are no other persons that would affected by this rule except 
for education providers that fit the statutory definition of those eligible 
for applying for grants.  This rule outlines the criteria considered for 
receiving a grant and therefore, does not have a direct cost or savings to 
affected persons outside of their ability to qualify for a grant.  There 
could be indirect costs incurred if a potential applicant needs to make 
internal changes to become eligible for the grant.  However, no element of 
this rule is compulsory because the grant and applying for the grant is 
optional.
COMPLIANCE COSTS FOR AFFECTED PERSONS:  There are no compliance costs for 
affected persons associated with this rule because the rule only outlines the 
criteria and process for grant eligibility.
COMMENTS BY THE DEPARTMENT HEAD ON THE FISCAL IMPACT THE RULE MAY HAVE ON 
BUSINESSES:  There are no impacts on business for the is rule because 
businesses cannot receive this grant.

HEALTH
FAMILY HEALTH AND PREPAREDNESS, EMERGENCY MEDICAL SERVICES
No. 41617 (Amendment): R426-8. Emergency Medical Services Ground Ambulance 
Rates and Charges.
SUMMARY OF THE RULE OR CHANGE:  Fiscal Reporting Guides (FRGs) are financial 
and statistical data collected from all EMS agencies statewide.  The data 
collected showed EMS Rates need to be increased at 5.50% so agencies 
statewide will have closer revenues matching expenses.  Rule R426-8 needs to 
be amended to reflect these ground ambulance transport rate changes.  Asset 
values were deleted since it is not used in current price setting methods.  
The profitability limit was revised to allow year-to-year deviations, and 
Medicaid transport numbers will be required to report in order to verify 
accurate assessment data.
ANTICIPATED COST OR SAVINGS TO:
- THE STATE BUDGET:  The state budget will not be impacted as this is a user 
fee.
- LOCAL GOVERNMENTS:  Local government budgets will not be impacted 
significantly.  The rates listed in the rule are increased 5.50%.  The 
Emergency Medical Services (EMS) agency billings increase by 5.50% which will 
offset declining collections, wages increases, and the increased equipment 
costs.
- SMALL BUSINESSES:  EMS budgets will not be impacted.  The ambulance 
transport rate increase is 5.50% from current ambulance rates to offset 
declining collections, wage increases, and the increased equipment costs.
- PERSONS OTHER THAN SMALL BUSINESSES, BUSINESSES, OR LOCAL GOVERNMENTAL 
ENTITIES: Other budgets will not be impacted.  The ambulance transport rate 
increase is 5.50% from current ambulance rates to offset declining 
collections, wage increases, and the increased equipment costs.
COMPLIANCE COSTS FOR AFFECTED PERSONS:  EMS ambulance providers are allowed 
to bill the rates listed in the proposed rule.   Amendments to this rule will 
increase patient payments for medical transports.  There are no costs to the 
agency for compliance.
COMMENTS BY THE DEPARTMENT HEAD ON THE FISCAL IMPACT THE RULE MAY HAVE ON 
BUSINESSES:  The increase in rates will fiscally impact EMS providers who may 
raise their rates and also impact payors of the increased rates, including 
insurers, employee benefit funds, and other business who pay or use the 
services.

HUMAN SERVICES
SUBSTANCE ABUSE AND MENTAL HEALTH
No. 41607 (Amendment): R523-5. Adult Peer Support Specialist Training and 
Certification.
SUMMARY OF THE RULE OR CHANGE:  All references to just "Adult" Peer Support 
Specialists are changed to reflect all types of Peer Support Specialists that 
are certified by the Division of Substance Abuse and Mental Health (DSAMH); 
grammatical changes are implemented; a definition of "Youth-In-Transition" is 
added; curriculum changes remove "Strengthening the peer specialist's 
recovery", and "assist with physical health and wellness"; "Population 
Specific Guidelines" is added; and "Curriculum Requirements for Youth-in-
Transition Training Programs" is added.
ANTICIPATED COST OR SAVINGS TO:
- THE STATE BUDGET:  This rule change will impact procedures by simply 
explicitly allowing adult peer support services to be delivered to Youth-In-
Transition.  This service is already allowable within current funding and 
will not impact budgets.
- LOCAL GOVERNMENTS:  This rule will add an additional Youth-In-Transition 
endorsement for adult peer support services specialists that requires an 
additional eight hours of training above the standard time needed to receive 
a peer support specialist certification.  Though this endorsement is 
voluntary, those seeking the endorsement who are working for a local 
authority would need to take 8 hours off from work to attend the training, 
and may have to pay up to $100 to receive the training.  Local governments 
that reimburse or provide financial support for their employees seeking the 
endorsement could pay up to 8 hours of the employees' salaries and up to $100 
for the training.  DSAMH currently has no contracts with training providers 
that would charge a fee for this training, but there is a potential that this 
arrangement will not always exist and training fees could be requested.
- SMALL BUSINESSES:  It is anticipated that no small businesses will 
participate in the certification or endorsement described in this rule.  This 
rule mostly affects local governments, employees of local governments, 
businesses contracted with local governments to provided substance use and/or 
mental health treatment services (none of which are small businesses at this 
time) and private citizens that are proactively seeking work within the 
public substance use and mental health treatment field and are covering 
personal cost to receive the certification and endorsement to place on a 
resume.
- PERSONS OTHER THAN SMALL BUSINESSES, BUSINESSES, OR LOCAL GOVERNMENTAL 
ENTITIES: This rule will add an additional Youth-In-Transition endorsement 
for adult peer support services specialists that requires an additional eight 
hours of training above the standard time needed to receive a peer support 
specialist certification.  Though this endorsement is voluntary, those 
seeking the endorsement as private citizens that are proactively seeking work 
within the public substance use and mental health treatment field and are 
covering personal cost to receive the certification and endorsement to place 
on a resume, would incur the following costs:  eight hours of their personal 
time, and if they are working for an employer who does not reimburse for this 
training, they would lose eight hours of their weekly salary or eight hours 
of their PTO or other leave; and may have to pay up to $100 to receive the 
training.  DSAMH currently has no contracts with training providers that 
would charge a fee for this training, but there is a potential that this 
arrangement will not always exist and training fees could been requested.
COMPLIANCE COSTS FOR AFFECTED PERSONS:  No compliance costs are associated 
with this rule change other than those that already exist from initial 
establishment of the rule.  A Youth-In-Transition endorsement is not required 
to be a peer support specialist with adults.
COMMENTS BY THE DEPARTMENT HEAD ON THE FISCAL IMPACT THE RULE MAY HAVE ON 
BUSINESSES:  This rule may require businesses to lose eight hours of 
productivity from employees seeking a Youth-In-Transition endorsement.  
Additionally, businesses that reimburse or provide financial support for 
their employees seeking the endorsement could pay up to 8 hours of the 
employees' salaries and up to $100 for the training.  DSAMH currently has no 
contracts with training providers that would charge a fee for this training, 
but there is a potential that this arrangement will not always exist and 
training fees could been requested.

JUDICIAL PERFORMANCE EVALUATION COMMISSION
ADMINISTRATION
No. 41620 (Amendment): R597-2-2. Disclosure, Recusal, and Disqualification.
SUMMARY OF THE RULE OR CHANGE:  This rule amendment adds new statutory 
provisions to the rule in order to create one location where all requirements 
about disclosure, recusal, and disqualification are placed.  Thus, it 
restates statutory language in the appropriate places in the rule. 
Specifically, it:  1) includes conflict of interest as a requirement for 
recusal, 2) declares disclosures as a protected record, and 3) states a 
limitation on disqualification pursuant to Subsection 78A-12-203(5)(e)(i).
ANTICIPATED COST OR SAVINGS TO:
- THE STATE BUDGET:  The change has no impact on the state budget because it 
only changes the conditions under which commissioners disclose, recuse, and 
disqualify for deliberations and voting on judicial retention 
recommendations.  It does not change the number of judges evaluated, which is 
a central factor in determining the cost of evaluations.
- LOCAL GOVERNMENTS:  The Judicial Performance Evaluation Commission has no 
dealings with local government, so there is no cost or savings to those 
entities as a result of this change.
- SMALL BUSINESSES:  The Commission has no authority with respect to small 
businesses and no dealings with small businesses; consequently, there is no 
impact on such entities.
- PERSONS OTHER THAN SMALL BUSINESSES, BUSINESSES, OR LOCAL GOVERNMENTAL 
ENTITIES: The affected persons are the individual, volunteer commissioners 
who are required by statute to make recommendations about whether judges 
should be recommended to voters for retention.  There is no cost savings to 
them because there is no cost or savings associated with the limitations 
placed upon them for disclosure, recusal, and disqualification.
COMPLIANCE COSTS FOR AFFECTED PERSONS:  There are no costs to commissioners 
for compliance with this rule.
COMMENTS BY THE DEPARTMENT HEAD ON THE FISCAL IMPACT THE RULE MAY HAVE ON 
BUSINESSES:  The amendment has no fiscal impact on businesses.

No. 41623 (Amendment): R597-3-1. Evaluation Cycles.
SUMMARY OF THE RULE OR CHANGE:  The Legislature changed the judicial filing 
deadlines from April 15th of a general election year to July 15th of a 
general election year.  The proposed rule amendment lengthens the evaluation 
cycles for judges an additional three months, consistent with the legislative 
filing deadline changes.
ANTICIPATED COST OR SAVINGS TO:
- THE STATE BUDGET:  The change has no impact on the state budget because it 
only changes the length of evaluation cycles for judicial performance 
surveys.  It does not change the number of judges evaluated, which is a 
central factor in determining the cost of the evaluations.
- LOCAL GOVERNMENTS:  The Judicial Performance Evaluation Commission has no 
dealings with local government, so there is no cost or savings to those 
entities as a result of this change.
- SMALL BUSINESSES:  The Commission has no authority with respect to small 
businesses and no dealings with small businesses; consequently there is no 
impact on such entities.
- PERSONS OTHER THAN SMALL BUSINESSES, BUSINESSES, OR LOCAL GOVERNMENTAL 
ENTITIES: The only affected persons are judges who will receive a longer 
evaluation period for judicial performance evaluations.  There is no cost or 
savings to them because the change only prescribes the period during which 
the Commission will collect performance data about them.
COMPLIANCE COSTS FOR AFFECTED PERSONS:  There is no cost to judges who will 
receive a lengthier performance evaluation.

No. 41624 (Amendment): R597-3-3. Courtroom Observation.
SUMMARY OF THE RULE OR CHANGE:  This amendment states that although 
volunteers, courtroom observers may be eligible to receive compensation from 
JPEC in exchange for specified amounts of additional courtroom observation 
work.
ANTICIPATED COST OR SAVINGS TO:
- THE STATE BUDGET:  These costs, estimated at no more than $5,000 per year, 
will be covered through existing budget allocations to JPEC.
- LOCAL GOVERNMENTS:  The Commission has no dealings with local government, 
so there is no cost or savings to those entities as a result of this change.
- SMALL BUSINESSES:  The Commission has no authority with respect to small 
businesses and no dealings with small businesses; consequently, there is no 
impact on such entities.
- PERSONS OTHER THAN SMALL BUSINESSES, BUSINESSES, OR LOCAL GOVERNMENTAL 
ENTITIES: The affected persons are individual courtroom observation 
volunteers who may be eligible to receive limited compensation for the 
completion of specified courtroom observation work.
COMPLIANCE COSTS FOR AFFECTED PERSONS:  The compliance costs for affected 
persons is the time taken to complete the specified courtroom observation 
work assigned to them and document the completion before payment.

No. 41625 (Amendment): R597-3-5. Public Comments.
SUMMARY OF THE RULE OR CHANGE:  The Legislature changed the judicial filing 
deadlines from April 15th of a general election year to July 15th of a 
general election year. The proposed rule amendment changes the public comment 
period for persons desiring to comment on the performance of judges. It 
shifts the end date of the public comment period forward an additional three 
months, consistent with legislative filing deadline changes.
ANTICIPATED COST OR SAVINGS TO:
- THE STATE BUDGET:  The change has no impact on the state budget because it 
only changes deadlines for when comments must be submitted and broadens the 
scope of what kind of comments  may be submitted.  It does not change the 
number of judges evaluated, which is a central factor in determining the cost 
of the evaluations.
- LOCAL GOVERNMENTS:  The Judicial Performance Evaluation Commission has no 
dealings with local government, so there is no cost or savings to those 
entities as a result of this change.
- SMALL BUSINESSES:  The Commission has no authority with respect to small 
businesses and no dealings with small businesses; consequently there is no 
impact on such entities.
- PERSONS OTHER THAN SMALL BUSINESSES, BUSINESSES, OR LOCAL GOVERNMENTAL 
ENTITIES: The only affected persons are the individual members of the public 
who may choose to submit comments about a judge. There is no cost or savings 
to them because all they are doing is submitting comments, which has no cost 
or savings associated with it.
COMPLIANCE COSTS FOR AFFECTED PERSONS:  There is no cost to members of the 
public if they choose to submit a comment about a judge.
COMMENTS BY THE DEPARTMENT HEAD ON THE FISCAL IMPACT THE RULE MAY HAVE ON

PUBLIC SERVICE COMMISSION
ADMINISTRATION
No. 41645 (Amendment): R746-343-15. Surcharge.
SUMMARY OF THE RULE OR CHANGE:  The rule requiring telecommunications 
corporations to assess their customers $0.02 per month for each residential 
and business telephone number is removed.  The Public Service Commission 
(PSC) emphasizes that S.B. 130 goes into effect on 07/01/2017, on which date 
Section R746-343-15 will be preempted by the statute.  Therefore, even though 
the first possible effective date for this repeal is 07/10/2017, 
telecommunications providers that have been collecting the $0.02 dedicated 
surcharge may terminate that collection as of 07/01/2017.
ANTICIPATED COST OR SAVINGS TO:
- THE STATE BUDGET:  For many years, the PSC and the Division of Public 
Utilities have been administering the program through which deaf, hard of 
hearing, and severely speech impaired persons are provided with assistive 
telecommunications devices and other telephony support.  The agencies have 
the budget necessary to continue administering this program.  The 
Legislature's decision to change the program's funding source is not 
anticipated to impact the state budget.
- LOCAL GOVERNMENTS:  Local governments are not required to comply with or 
administer Section R746-343-15.  Its removal is not anticipated to pose a 
fiscal impact to local government.
- SMALL BUSINESSES:  Small businesses that are required to contribute to the 
UUSF will be required to comply with the PSC's associated rules.  This 
section removal is part and parcel of the PSC's compliance with S.B. 130 
(2017).  In order to comply with the new legislation, the PSC has determined 
to impose a $0.36 monthly per-connection surcharge to fund both the UUSF and 
the program for deaf, hard of hearing, and severely speech impaired 
individuals.  The fiscal impact of the adjusted per-connection surcharge is 
discussed in a companion filing.  (EDITOR'S NOTE:  A proposed amendment to 
Section R746-360-4 is under Filing No. 41644 in this issue, June 1, 2017, of 
the Bulletin.)
- PERSONS OTHER THAN SMALL BUSINESSES, BUSINESSES, OR LOCAL GOVERNMENTAL 
ENTITIES: Affected persons that are required to contribute to the UUSF will 
be required to comply with the PSC's associated rules.  This section removal 
is part and parcel of the PSC's compliance with S.B. 130 (2017).  In order to 
comply with the new legislation, the PSC has determined to impose a $0.36 
monthly per-connection surcharge to fund both the UUSF and the program for 
deaf, hard of hearing, and severely speech impaired individuals.  The fiscal 
impact of the adjusted per-connection surcharge is discussed in a companion 
filing under Filing No. 41644.
COMPLIANCE COSTS FOR AFFECTED PERSONS:  Affected persons that are required to 
contribute to the UUSF will be required to comply with the PSC's associated 
rules.  This section removal is part and parcel of the PSC's compliance with 
S.B. 130 (2017).  In order to comply with the new legislation, the PSC has 
determined to impose a $0.36 monthly per-connection surcharge to fund both 
the UUSF and the program for deaf, hard of hearing, and severely speech 
impaired individuals.  The fiscal impact of the adjusted per-connection 
surcharge is discussed in a companion filing under Filing No. 41644.
COMMENTS BY THE DEPARTMENT HEAD ON THE FISCAL IMPACT THE RULE MAY HAVE ON 
BUSINESSES:  As stated in the rule analysis, no fiscal impact to businesses 
is anticipated from the removal of this section.  Affected businesses will 
continue to contribute to the program through the UUSF surcharge, the fiscal 
impact of which is discussed in a companion filing under Filing No. 41644.

No. 41644 (Amendment): R746-360-4. Application of Fund Surcharges to Customer

SUMMARY OF THE RULE OR CHANGE:  Through 07/31/2017, providers of access 
lines, as defined at Subsection 54-8b-2(1), are required to remit to the 
Public Service Commission of Utah (PSC) 1.65% of their billed intrastate

collect from their end-user customers a monthly surcharge of $0.36 per access 
line and remit to the PSC at least 98.69% of the total monthly surcharge 
collections.  In order to comply with federal law, the rule includes a 
mechanism whereby an end-user may be exempted from the per-connection 
surcharge on a showing that the end-user does not use the access line at 
issue to facilitate Utah intrastate telecommunications services.
ANTICIPATED COST OR SAVINGS TO:
- THE STATE BUDGET:  The PSC and the Division of Public Utilities have been 
administering the UUSF for many years and have the budget to continue doing 
so.  The change in the surcharge mechanism will not have a fiscal impact on 
the state budget.
- LOCAL GOVERNMENTS:  Local governments are not required to comply with or 
enforce the rules through which the UUSF is funded.  No fiscal impact to 
local government is anticipated.
- SMALL BUSINESSES:  Small businesses that provide access lines will be 
required to adjust their billing in order to assess and remit a per-
connection surcharge (as opposed to remitting a percentage of their 
revenues).  To comply, these businesses might need to change or modify their 
billing software.  All such costs were considered by the Legislature in 
determining to allow migration to a per-connection surcharge.  Further, such 
costs will vary and cannot be estimated by the PSC.  However, the PSC notes 
that most of the small businesses affected by this rule have historically 
assessed a per-connection surcharge in order to fund a program that provides 
telephony assistance to individuals who are deaf, hard of hearing, or 
severely speech challenged.  Therefore, the PSC anticipates that, for the 
majority of affected businesses, the migration from a revenue-based 
remittance to a connection-based remittance will not pose a meaningful fiscal 
burden.
- PERSONS OTHER THAN SMALL BUSINESSES, BUSINESSES, OR LOCAL GOVERNMENTAL 
ENTITIES: Customers of businesses that provide access lines will be charged 
$0.36 per month per access line.
COMPLIANCE COSTS FOR AFFECTED PERSONS:  To comply, affected persons must 
collect from their customers and remit to the PSC a monthly per-connection 
surcharge.  Providers of access lines will need to obtain or modify billing 
software accordingly.  The associated costs will vary and cannot be 
anticipated.  However, where most providers have historically collected a 
per-connection surcharge to comply with other statutory requirements, it is 
anticipated that the associated costs will be minimal.
COMMENTS BY THE DEPARTMENT HEAD ON THE FISCAL IMPACT THE RULE MAY HAVE ON 
BUSINESSES:  As stated in the rule analysis, the fiscal impact to businesses 
will result from IT programming or software that might be necessary in order 
to comply with a per-connection surcharge requirement rather than a revenue-
based remittance requirement.  It is anticipated that the conversion costs 
will be minimal and well within the regulatory budget of Utah's access line 
providers.

TRANSPORTATION
PROGRAM DEVELOPMENT
No. 41619 (Amendment): R926-11. Clean Fuel Vehicle Decal Program.
SUMMARY OF THE RULE OR CHANGE:  This amendment makes technical changes and 
corrects legal citations included in the rule, adds text that defines and 
regulates placement of newly devised C Stickers that are to be used as part 
of the Clean Fuel Vehicle Decal Program, and changes the way the waiting list 
for applications submitted to participate in the program operates.
ANTICIPATED COST OR SAVINGS TO:
- THE STATE BUDGET:  This amendment may result in savings to the state's 
annual budget because it makes the Clean Fuel Vehicle Decal Program more 
efficient.  However, quantifying the aggregate savings to the state's budgets 
is not possible at present and may be negligible.
- LOCAL GOVERNMENTS:  This amendment will not result in an increase in 
aggregate costs or savings to local governments because the Clean Fuel 
Vehicle Decal Program does not involve a fee to participate.  Permits and 
their associated C Decals and C Stickers are issued to all applicants in the 
order that the applications are approved, and the Department of 
Transportation does not charge a fee to apply.
- SMALL BUSINESSES:  This amendment will not result in an increase in 
aggregate costs or savings to small businesses because the Clean Fuel Vehicle 
Decal Program does not involve a fee to participate.  Permits and their 
associated C Decals and C Stickers are issued to all applicants in the order 
that the applications are approved, and the Department does not charge a fee 
to apply.
- PERSONS OTHER THAN SMALL BUSINESSES, BUSINESSES, OR LOCAL GOVERNMENTAL 
ENTITIES: This amendment will not result in an increase in aggregate costs or 
savings to persons other than small businesses, businesses, or local 
government entities because the Clean Fuel Vehicle Decal Program does not 
involve a fee to participate.  Permits and their associated C Decals and C 
Stickers are issued to all applicants in the order that the applications are 
approved, and the Department does not charge a fee to apply.
COMPLIANCE COSTS FOR AFFECTED PERSONS:  This amendment will not result in an 
increase in aggregate costs or savings to affected persons because the Clean 
Fuel Vehicle Decal Program does not involve a fee to participate.  Permits 
and their associated C Decals and C Stickers are issued to all applicants in 
the order that the applications are approved, and the Department does not 
charge a fee to apply.

WORKFORCE SERVICES
HOUSING AND COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT
No. 41611 (Amendment): R990-101. Qualified Emergency Food Agencies Fund 
(QEFAF).
SUMMARY OF THE RULE OR CHANGE:  Recent changes to the State Community 
Services Act have amended the method of determining distributions from QEFAF, 
which provides funding for food pantries and similar organizations.  
Specifically, the statutory changes eliminate the requirement that QEFAF 
reimbursements be tied directly to the number of pounds of food donated each 
year.  The proposed changes described here provide a revised method of 
determining how QEFAF funds are to be distributed, clarify the reimbursement 
process and timelines, and make related technical changes.
ANTICIPATED COST OR SAVINGS TO:
- THE STATE BUDGET:  There are no costs or savings to the state budget 
because the changes do not affect the QEFAF funding levels set by the 
Legislature.
- LOCAL GOVERNMENTS:  There are no costs or savings to local governments 
because the changes do not affect the QEFAF funding levels set by the 
Legislature, and because the changes use existing funding levels as the 
baseline for funding distributions.
- SMALL BUSINESSES:  There will be no costs to small businesses to comply 
with these changes because the changes do not affect the QEFAF funding levels 
set by the Legislature, and because small businesses do not receive QEFAF 
funding, per statute.
- PERSONS OTHER THAN SMALL BUSINESSES, BUSINESSES, OR LOCAL GOVERNMENTAL 
ENTITIES: There will be no costs to persons other than small businesses, 
businesses, or local government entities to comply with these changes because 
there are no costs or fees associated with these proposed changes, and 
because the changes do not affect the QEFAF funding levels set by the 
Legislature.
COMPLIANCE COSTS FOR AFFECTED PERSONS:  There are no compliance costs for 
this change to anyone, including affected persons, because the proposed 
changes do not affect the compliance responsibilities of qualified agencies 
receiving QEFAF funds.
COMMENTS BY THE DEPARTMENT HEAD ON THE FISCAL IMPACT THE RULE MAY HAVE ON 
BUSINESSES:  There are no compliance costs associated with this change. There 
are no fees associated with this change.  There will be no cost to anyone to 
comply with these changes.  There will be no fiscal impact on any business.
INTERESTED PERSONS MAY PRESENT THEIR VIEWS ON THIS RULE BY SUBMITTING WRITTEN

REHABILITATION
No. 41616 (Amendment): R993-300. Certification Requirements for Interpreters 
for the Hearing Impaired.
SUMMARY OF THE RULE OR CHANGE:  The prior rule was poorly organized and more 
difficult to use.  These changes make the rule more closely track the 
statutory language.  There are no changes being made to the Division of 
Rehabilitation practice or procedure.
ANTICIPATED COST OR SAVINGS TO:
- THE STATE BUDGET:  This is a federally-funded program so there are no costs 
or savings to the state budget.
- LOCAL GOVERNMENTS:  This is a federally-funded program so there are no 
costs or savings to local government.
- SMALL BUSINESSES:  There are no costs or savings to any small businesses as 
there are no fees associated with this program and it is federally funded.
- PERSONS OTHER THAN SMALL BUSINESSES, BUSINESSES, OR LOCAL GOVERNMENTAL 
ENTITIES: There are no costs or savings to any persons other than small 
businesses, businesses, or local government entities as there are no fees 
associated with this program and it is federally funded.
COMPLIANCE COSTS FOR AFFECTED PERSONS:  There are no costs or savings to any 
affected persons as there are no fees associated with this program and it is 
federally funded.  These changes will not impact the contribution rate of any 
employer.
COMMENTS BY THE DEPARTMENT HEAD ON THE FISCAL IMPACT THE RULE MAY HAVE ON 
BUSINESSES:  There are no compliance costs associated with this change.  
There are no fees associated with this change.  There will be no cost to 
anyone to comply with these changes.  There will be no fiscal impact on any 
business.  These changes will have no impact on any employer's contribution 
tax rate.

NOTICES OF CHANGES IN PROPOSED RULES

After an agency has published a Proposed Rule in the Utah State Bulletin, it 
may receive comment that requires the Proposed Rule to be altered before it 
goes into effect.  A Change in Proposed Rule allows an agency to respond to 
comments it receives. 

While the law does not designate a comment period for a Change in Proposed 
Rule, it does provide for a 30-day waiting period.  An agency may accept 
additional comments during this period and, at its option, may designate a 
comment period or may hold a public hearing.  The 30-day waiting period for 
Changes in Proposed Rules published in Utah State Bulletin ends July 3, 2017.

From the end of the 30-day waiting period through September 29, 2017, an 
agency may notify the Office of Administrative Rules that it wants to make 
the Change in Proposed Rule effective.  When an agency submits a Notice of 
Effective Date for a Change in Proposed Rule, the Proposed Rule as amended by 
the Change in Proposed Rule becomes the effective rule.  The agency sets the 
effective date.  The date may be no fewer than 30 days nor more than 120 days 
after the publication of the Change in Proposed Rule.  If the agency 
designates a public comment period, the effective date may be no fewer than 
seven calendar days after the close of the public comment period nor more 
than 120 days after the publication date.  Alternatively, the agency may file 
another Change in Proposed Rule in response to additional comments received.  
If the Office of Administrative Rules does not receive a Notice of Effective 
Date or another Change in Proposed Rule by the end of the 120-day period 
after publication, the Change in Proposed Rule filings, along with its 
associated Proposed Rule, lapses.

Changes in Proposed Rules are governed by Section 63G-3-303, Rule R15-2, and 
Sections R15-4-3, R15-4-4, R15-4-5b, R15-4-7, R15-4-9, and R15-4-10.


INSURANCE
ADMINISTRATION
No. 41296 (Change in Proposed Rule): R590-206. Privacy of Consumer Financial 
and Health Information Rule.
SUMMARY OF THE RULE OR CHANGE:  The changes are as follows:  incorporated the 
Federal Model Privacy Form as Appendix B, allowing licensees to rely on this 
form as a safe harbor for compliance with the rule; clarified that licensees 
may continue to use existing language in the current Appendix A, but as of 
07/01/2019 will not be considered safe harbor language; updated several 
citations within the rule to reflect changes to the rule based on adoption of 
the NAIC model #672; updated reference to a beneficiary in a workers' 
compensation plan to be a claimant covered by a workers' compensation plan; 
made changes consistent with NAIC model #672; added language to address 
settlement options and clarifying the consumer is a beneficiary or claimant 
that has submitted a claim; made changes consistent with NAIC model #672; 
added a new Section R590-206-10; and added privacy notices to group 
policyholders, which adopts specific language for notice requires for group 
policyholders.  The Department of Insurance previously added language in 
Subsection R590-206-11(3)(a) which was strongly opposed by industry.  This 
revision removes the previously proposed language, and adopts the NAIC model 
#672 language.  (EDITOR'S NOTE:  The original proposed amendment upon which 
this change in proposed rule (CPR) was based was published in the March 1, 
2017, issue of the Utah State Bulletin, on page 42.  Underlining in the rule 
below indicates text that has been added since the publication of the 
proposed rule mentioned above; strike-out indicates text that has been 
deleted.  You must view the CPR and the proposed amendment together to 
understand all of the changes that will be enforceable should the agency make 
this rule effective.)
ANTICIPATED COST OR SAVINGS TO:
- THE STATE BUDGET:  There are no anticipated costs or savings to the state 
budget as a direct result of the changes to this rule.  Licensees are 
currently required to comply with the federal law.  Any costs or savings 
would have already been realized as the state adopted the requirements of the 
FAST Act and the GLBA.
- LOCAL GOVERNMENTS:  There are no anticipated costs or savings to local 
government as a direct result of the changes to this rule. Licensees are 
currently required to comply with the federal law.  Any costs or savings 
would have already been realized as the state adopted the requirements of the 
FAST Act and the GLBA.
- SMALL BUSINESSES:  There are no anticipated costs or savings to small 
business as a direct result of the changes to this rule.  Licensees are 
currently required to comply with the federal law.  Any costs or savings 
would have already been realized as the state adopted the requirements of the 
FAST Act and the GLBA.
- PERSONS OTHER THAN SMALL BUSINESSES, BUSINESSES, OR LOCAL GOVERNMENTAL 
ENTITIES: There are no anticipated costs or savings to persons other than 
small businesses, businesses, or local governmental entities as a direct 
result of the changes to this rule.  Licensees are currently required to 
comply with the federal law.  Any costs or savings would have already been 
realized as the state adopted the requirements of the FAST Act and the GLBA.
COMPLIANCE COSTS FOR AFFECTED PERSONS:  There are no anticipated costs to 
affected persons as a result of the changes to this rule.  The changes adopt 
changes in federal law, correct references to Utah Code and sections within 
the rule, and correct a few minor grammatical errors.  Licensees are 
currently required to comply with the federal law.  Any compliance costs 
would have already been realized as affected persons adopted the requirements 
of the FAST Act and the GLBA.
COMMENTS BY THE DEPARTMENT HEAD ON THE FISCAL IMPACT THE RULE MAY HAVE ON 
BUSINESSES:  I believe there is no potential for fiscal impact on the 
businesses as a result of the changes to the rule.  The changes merely adopt 
existing federal requirements and align the Utah rule with the NAIC model 
#672, adopted 04/11/2017.

NOTICES OF 120-DAY (EMERGENCY) RULES

An agency may file a 120-Day (Emergency) Rule when it finds that the regular 
rulemaking procedures would:

  (a) cause an imminent peril to the public health, safety, or welfare;
  (b) cause an imminent budget reduction because of budget restraints or 
federal requirements; or
  (c) place the agency in violation of federal or state law (Subsection 63G-
3-304(1)).

A 120-Day Rule is effective when filed with the Office of Administrative 
Rules, or on a later date designated by the agency.  A 120-Day Rule is 
effective for 120 days or until it is superseded by a permanent rule.  
Because of its temporary nature, a 120-Day Rule is not codified as part of 
the Utah Administrative Code.

The law does not require a public comment period for 120-Day Rules.  However, 
when an agency files a 120-Day Rule, it may file a Proposed Rule at the same 
time, to make the requirements permanent.

Emergency or 120-Day Rules are governed by Section 63G-3-304, and Section 
R15-4-8.


NATURAL RESOURCES
OIL, GAS AND MINING; OIL AND GAS
No. 41614 (Emergency Rule): R649-2-9. Refusal to Agree.
SUMMARY OF THE RULE OR CHANGE:  This emergency rule specifies the manner in 
which an owner must consent to the drilling and operation of a well and agree 
to bear that owner's proportionate share of the costs of the drilling, 
testing, completion, and equipping of that well, as well as the timeframe 
within which such consent must be given.  Specifying these details in rule is 
required by the recently amended Subsections 40-6-2(4) and 40-6-2(11).  
Consent must be given in writing within 30 days of written notice being 
received.
EMERGENCY RULE REASON AND JUSTIFICATION:
REGULAR RULEMAKING PROCEDURES WOULD place the agency in violation of federal 
or state law.
JUSTIFICATION:  Regular rulemaking (which is presently being carried out) 
will not provide the detail concerning the manner and timeframe within which 
an owner must consent to a well required by the recently amended Subsections 
40-6-2(4) and 40-6-2(11) by the 05/09/2017 effective date of that provision.  
Without this emergency rule, as of 05/09/2017, the operative provisions of 
the statute, which are critical to the functioning of the compulsory pooling 
procedures set forth in Section 40-6-6.5, and which depend upon these details 
concerning manner and timeframe of consent being spelled out in regulation, 
will become impossible to enforce and apply as of 05/09/2017.  Reliance 
solely on the ongoing regular rulemaking process would therefore place the 
agency in violation of the requirements of state law.
ANTICIPATED COST OR SAVINGS TO:
- THE STATE BUDGET:  The rule specifies the manner in which owners must 
consent to the drilling and operation of wells.  There are no anticipated 
changes in costs or savings to the Division of Oil, Gas and Mining under this 
rule.  This rule is also not expected to have any budgetary impacts on other 
state agencies or have any other direct or indirect costs to the state.
- LOCAL GOVERNMENTS:  This rule is not expected to create any costs or 
savings for counties, cities, towns, school districts, special districts, or 
any other form of local government. The emergency rule only clarifies 
existing regulations in certain respects which do not implicate costs, and 
will therefore have no effect on anticipated costs or savings.
- SMALL BUSINESSES:  Small businesses are not expected to be impacted by this 
emergency rule.  This emergency rule only clarifies existing regulations in 
certain respects which do not implicate costs, and will therefore have no 
effect on anticipated costs or savings for small businesses.
- PERSONS OTHER THAN SMALL BUSINESSES, BUSINESSES, OR LOCAL GOVERNMENTAL 
ENTITIES: Persons other than small businesses, businesses, or local 
government entities are not expected to be impacted by this rule because the 
rule only clarifies existing provisions of the current statutory and 
regulatory scheme concerning compulsory pooling.
COMPLIANCE COSTS FOR AFFECTED PERSONS:  Landowners and operators would not 
experience any increase in compliance costs under this rule.  These types of 
parties could potentially experience a reduction in their attorney and legal 
fees relating to costs of appearing before the Board of Oil, Gas and Mining.  
The Division does not have access to industry expenditures for Board 
hearings, so a specific costs savings could not be reasonably estimated.
COMMENTS BY THE DEPARTMENT HEAD ON THE FISCAL IMPACT THE RULE MAY HAVE ON 
BUSINESSES:  This emergency rule will have no fiscal impact on businesses as 
it only clarifies existing provisions of the current statutory and regulatory 
scheme concerning compulsory pooling.

FIVE-YEAR NOTICES OF REVIEW AND STATEMENTS OF CONTINUATION

Within five years of an administrative rule's original enactment or last 
five-year review, the agency is required to review the rule.  This review is 
intended to help the agency determine, and to notify the public that, the 
administrative rule in force is still authorized by statute and necessary.  
Upon reviewing a rule, an agency may:  repeal the rule by filing a Proposed 
Rule; continue the rule as it is by filing a Five-Year Notice of Review and 
Statement of Continuation (Review); or amend the rule by filing a Proposed 
Rule and by filing a Review.  By filing a Review, the agency indicates that 
the rule is still necessary.

The rule text that is being continued may be found in the online edition of 
the Utah Administrative Code at https://rules.utah.gov/publications/utah-adm-
code/.  The rule text may also be inspected at the agency or the Office of 
Administrative Rules.  Reviews are effective upon filing.

Reviews are governed by Section 63G-3-305.

fulfillment of the requirement of  Subsection 13-34-104(6), see Section R152-
34-4 and Subsection R152-34-6(l).  The rule also establishes the amount of 
the bond, certificate, or letter of credit required under Subsection 13-34-
107(7)(a), and other issues relating to bond, certificates, or letters of 
credit, see Subsections R152-34-7(9) through (14).  This is necessary since 
the statute does not establish a specific bond amount.  The rule also 
facilitates the Division's administration of registrations under the 
Postsecondary Proprietary School Act, e.g. Sections R152-34-1, R152-34-3, 
R152-34-5, R152-34-6, and R152-34-10 and the Division's statutory charge to 
protect students from deceptively promoted, inadequately staffed, and 
unqualified proprietary institutions and programs and enforce the 
Postsecondary Proprietary School Act, e.g., Sections R152-34-7, R152-34-9, 
and R152-34-11.  Therefore, this rule should be continued.

REASONED JUSTIFICATION FOR THE CONTINUATION OF THE RULE, INCLUDING REASONS 
WHY THE AGENCY DISAGREES WITH COMMENTS IN OPPOSITION TO THE RULE, IF ANY:  
The purpose of this rule is to establish the minimum standards for prevention 
of fire and for the protection of life and property against fire and panic in

self preservation.  This rule sets a standard to protect them.  Therefore, 
this rule should be continued.

NOTICES OF FIVE-YEAR EXPIRATIONS

Rulewriting agencies are required by law to review each of their 
administrative rules within five years of the date of the rule's original 
enactment or the date of last review (Section 63G-3-305).  The Office of 
Administrative Rules (Office) is required to notify agencies of rules due for 
review at least 180 days prior to the anniversary date.  If the agency finds 
that it will not meet the deadline for review of the rule (the five-year 
anniversary date), it may file a Notice of Five-Year Extension (Extension) 
with the Office.  However, if the agency fails to file either the Five-Year 
Notice of Review and Statement of Continuation or the Extension by the date 
provide by the Office, the rule expires.

Upon expiration of the rule, the Office files a Notice of Five-Year 
Expiration (Expiration) to document the action.  The Office is required to 
remove the rule from the Utah Administrative Code.  The agency may no longer 
enforce the rule and it must follow regular rulemaking procedures to replace 
the rule if it is still needed.

The Office has filed Expirations for each of the rules listed below which 
were not reviewed in accordance with Section 63G-3-305.  These rules have 
expired and have been removed from the Utah Administrative Code.

The expiration of administrative rules for failure to comply with the five-
year review requirement is governed by Subsection 63G-3-305(8).

NOTICES OF RULE EFFECTIVE DATES

State law provides for agencies to make their administrative rules effective 
and enforceable after publication in the Utah State Bulletin.  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.

listed below have been made effective.
