			 The board of trustees is authorized to grant tuition and fee waivers to
			 students pursuant to
			 RCW
			  28B.15.910 and the laws identified therein.
			 Each of these laws, with the exception of those required by law, authorizes but
			 does not require the board of trustees to grant waivers for different
			 categories of students and provides for waivers of different fees. The board of
			 trustees or its delegate must affirmatively act to implement the legislature's
			 grant of authority. A list of waivers that the board has implemented can be
			 found in the
Bulletin, Timetable of Classes
, university web
			 site, or any subsequently adopted publication.
(2) Even when it has decided to implement a
			 waiver listed in
			 RCW
			  28B.15.910, the university, for specific
			 reasons and a general need for flexibility in the management of its resources,
			 may choose not to award waivers to any or all students who may be eligible
			 under the terms of the laws, or it may decide to grant partial waivers. The
			 university's description of the factors it may consider to adjust a waiver
			 program to meet emergent or changing needs is found in subsection (4) of this
			 section. All waivers are subject to subsection (4) of this section.
(3) The board of trustees also has the
			 authority under
			 RCW
			  28B.15.915 to grant waivers of all or a
			 portion of operating fees as defined in
			 RCW
			  28B.15.031. Waiver programs adopted under
			 RCW
			  28B.15.915 are described in the sources
			 identified in subsection (1) of this section. Waivers granted under
			 RCW
			  28B.15.915 are subject to subsection (4) of
			 this section.
(4) The university
			 may modify its restrictions or requirements pursuant to changes in state or
			 federal law, changes in programmatic requirements, or in response to financial
			 or other considerations, which may include, but are not limited to, the need to
			 adopt fiscally responsible budgets, the management of the overall levels and
			 mix of enrollments, management initiatives to modify enrollment demand for
			 specific programs and management decisions to eliminate or modify academic
			 programs. The university may choose not to exercise the full funding authority
			 granted under
			 RCW

Washington Administrative Code › Title - Northwest Clean Air Agency › 100 - GENERAL PROVISIONS › Sec2 100 - NAME OF AGENCY

Current through Register Vol. 24-14, July 15, 2024
100.1 The
			 multi-county agency, consisting of Island, Skagit and Whatcom Counties, having
			 been formed pursuant to the Washington State Clean Air Act RCW 70.94, shall be
			 known and cited as the "Northwest Clean Air Agency", and hereinafter may be
			 cited as the "NWCAA" or the "Authority."
100.2 Any reference to the Northwest Air
			 Pollution Authority, the Authority or the NWAPA in any document previously
			 issued by the agency, including without limitation orders, permits, judgments,
			 letters and the like shall be deemed reference to the Northwest Clean Air
			 Agency or the NWCAA.
Washington Administrative Code › Title - Northwest Clean Air Agency › 100 - GENERAL PROVISIONS › Sec2 102 - POLICY

Current through Register Vol. 24-14, July 15, 2024
102.1 It shall be
			 the policy of the NWCAA to secure and maintain such levels of air quality as
			 will protect human health and safety, prevent injury to plant and animal life
			 and to property, and foster the comfort and convenience of the inhabitants of
			 this area in order to facilitate their enjoyment of the area's natural beauty
			 and thus promote economic and social well-being.
102.2 In order to carry out the requirements
			 of the Washington Clean Air Act and to provide uniform administration and
			 enforcement, the NWCAA adopts the following policies, procedures, standards,
			 prohibitions, and ambient air quality objectives.
The establishment of control procedures, compliance schedules,
				emission and ambient air standards, and prohibitions are the administrative
				means of achieving this goal.
102.3 Guidelines
In carrying out its responsibilities for air pollution control
				the NWCAA is concerned with the interrelationship of land use, activities of
				people, and industries since each of these contributes to the overall air
				pollution problem. The ongoing program carried out by the NWCAA attempts to
				seek solutions to existing problems and to develop strategies for prevention of
				problems as the area of jurisdiction experiences growth and change. To
				accomplish this best, it is necessary for the NWCAA to enter into the planning
				stages of domestic and industrial development and to participate with other
				agencies in decisions on location of population and industrial centers
				considering the kinds of air contaminants these may emit in relation to those
				from surrounding areas. Coordination with air pollution authorization and other
				agencies in contiguous areas is necessary.
In the development of strategies, it is necessary to consider
				three very interrelated areas and develop appropriate guidelines for:
(a) Minimal degradation of air
			 quality.
(b) Implementation of land
			 use and zoning.
(c) Population
			 density control.
