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:

Subsection 73-3c-302(8), in the Wastewater Reuse Act, authorizes the state engineer to make rules to implement the provisions of this section of the statute.

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:

This rule is necessary because, by statute, entities desirous of reusing wastewater effluent must receive state engineer approval before the water can be used. The rule provides the steps for providing all necessary information and completing the required application for the state engineer to consider. Therefore, this rule should be continued. There are some statutory references that need to be corrected and will done soon.
