APPRAISAL

This retention is based upon the previously approved 9 year retention for the State Health Department. That retention was based on discussions with the EPA office in Denver. State action could be taken under UCA 78-38-1, 26-8-504, 76-10-801. The maximum statute of limitations under these provision is 4 years. Federal statutes are vaguer. However, the EPA keeps its files open for 9 years.
