The Utah Administrative Code (UAC) is an official publication of the Utah Office of Administrative Rules, mandated by the Utah Administrative Rulemaking Act. It is Utah's equivalent to the Code of Federal Regulations.

Utah Administrative Rules must also adhere to the requirements of Utah Governor Gary R. Herbert Executive Order No. 2017-1, Establishing Effective Oversight Over State Agency Rulemaking, which supercedes Matheson EO 12/03/1979, Bangerter EO 02/03/1986, Bangerter EO 03/22/1988, and Herbert EO/013/2011.

Overview
The Utah Administrative Code is "evidence of the administrative law of the state of Utah" and an "authorized compilation of the administrative law of Utah" Section 63G-3-701.

Similar to the Code of Federal Regulations, the UAC is updated on a regular basis through the codification (law) process. The Utah Office of Administrative Rules codifies changes to the Utah Administrative Code on a monthly basis as resources permit. Since 2004, the Utah Administrative Code has been an electronic publication.

History
The format of the Administrative Code has changed over time:


 * 1973-1987: a binder format in which sections were updated as needed.
 * 1987-1994: published annually in volumes.
 * 1994-1999: a binder format in which sections were updated quarterly as needed.
 * 2000-ongoing: published in volumes, updates published as needed.

The Utah State Archives has pieces of the Code up to 1982, nothing between 1982 and 1987, and a complete run of the Code from 1987 through the present. The creation of Utah administrative rules began in 1973 under the Governorship of Calvin L. Rampton when the Office of Administrative Rules was a part of the Utah State Archives and Records Service ; it became a separate entity under the Deptartment of Administrative Services in 1983 under the Governorship of Scott M. Matheson when the Utah Administrative Rulemaking Act was passed by the Utah State Legislature.

Procedure
Rules are reviewed, approved, and made available to the public by the Utah Office of Administrative Rules pursuant to the Utah Administrative Rulemaking Act. There are six major phases of the Utah rulemaking process: authorization, preproposal, proposal, comment period, adoption, and enforcement.
