WSR 09-23-006
[ Filed November 5, 2009, 8:10 a.m. , effective January 1, 2010 ]
Purpose: This rule-making order amends chapter 16-470 WAC by increasing laboratory diagnostic and postentry site inspection fees, including hourly fees for these services. In addition, the department is amending the language in order to meet the needs of the affected stakeholders in response to recent changes in technology, procedures implemented by the federal government, and industry practices. During the 2009 legislative session, the Washington state legislature authorized (as required by Initiative 960) the Washington state department of agriculture to increase the plant pest inspection and testing fees as necessary to meet the actual costs of conducting business (see chapter 564, Laws of 2009).
Citation of Existing Rules Affected by this Order: Amending WAC 16-470-912, 16-470-917, and 16-470-921.
Statutory Authority for Adoption: RCW 17.24.021 and 17.24.131; chapter 34.05 RCW; and chapter 564, Laws of 2009.
