NOTICE OF REVIEW AND STATEMENT OF CONTINUATION

Concise explanation of the particular statutory provisions under which the rule is enacted and how these provisions authorize or require the rule:

Section 73-18-16 authorizes the Division to hold regattas, motorboat, or other boat races, marine parades, tournaments, or exhibitions on any waters of Utah. The board is allowed to adopt rules concerning the safety of vessels and persons either as observers or participants.

Summary of written comments received during and since the last five-year review of the rule from interested persons supporting or opposing the rule:

No written comments have been received.

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

Any time a race or regatta is held, there are safety issues involved. In order to keep the race/regatta organized and safe, this rule should be continued as it creates a check list of authorized events and users that is used as an important tool to help keep participants and the recreating public safe and able to utilize the waters of Utah.
