              (c) The court shall immediately notify the department of licensing of the confiscation and the duration of the confiscation. No Washington state vehicle registration or vehicle license plates may be reissued for the vehicle by the department to the person during the period of confiscation.

              (d) No confiscation under this section affects the right of any person to transfer or acquire title in the vehicle, or the right of any person other than the arrested driver to become the registered owner of the vehicle.

              (e) In any case provided for in this section, where a Washington state vehicle registration or vehicle license is to be confiscated, the confiscation shall be stayed and shall not take effect until after the determination of any appeal from the conviction which may lawfully be taken, but in case the conviction is sustained on appeal the confiscation takes effect as of the date that the conviction becomes effective for other purposes.

              (2)(a) On a third or subsequent conviction for a violation of RCW 46.61.502 or 46.61.504 within a five-year period the motor vehicle the person was driving at the time of the violation, if the person is the owner of the vehicle, shall be seized by a law enforcement officer of this state upon process issued by the court issuing the conviction.

              (b) Proceedings for forfeiture shall be deemed commenced by the seizure. The law enforcement agency under whose authority the seizure was made shall cause notice to be served within fifteen days following the seizure on the owner of the vehicle seized and the person in charge thereof and any person having any known right or interest therein, including any community property interest, of the seizure and intended forfeiture of the seized vehicle. The notice of seizure may be served by any method authorized by law or court rule including but not limited to service by certified mail with return receipt requested. Service by mail shall be deemed complete upon mailing within the fifteen-day period following the seizure.

              (c) If no person notifies the seizing law enforcement agency in writing of the person's claim of ownership or right to possession of the vehicle within forty-five days of the seizure, the vehicle seized shall be deemed forfeited.

              (d) If any person notifies the seizing law enforcement agency in writing of the person's claim of ownership or right to possession of the vehicle within forty-five days of the seizure, the person or persons shall be afforded a reasonable opportunity to be heard as to the claim or right.

              (ii) Sell the vehicle; or

              (iii) Remove it for disposition in accordance with law.

              (f)(i) When a vehicle is forfeited, the seizing agency shall keep a record indicating the identity of the prior owner, if known, a description of the vehicle, the disposition of the vehicle, the value of the vehicle at the time of seizure, and the amount of proceeds realized from disposition of the vehicle.

              (ii) Each seizing agency shall retain records of forfeited vehicles for at least seven years.

              (iii) Each seizing agency shall file a report including a copy of the records of forfeited vehicles with the state treasurer each calendar quarter.

              (iv) The quarterly report need not include a record of forfeited vehicles that are still being held for use as evidence during the investigation or prosecution of a case or during the appeal from a conviction.

              (g) Forfeited vehicles and net proceeds shall be retained by the seizing law enforcement agency exclusively for the expansion and improvement of law enforcement activity. Money retained under this section may not be used to supplant preexisting funding sources.

              (h) A forfeiture of a motor vehicle encumbered by a bona fide security interest is subject to the interest of the secured party."

              Strike everything after the enacting clause and insert the following:

              "Sec. 1. RCW 36.70A.040 and 1990 1st ex.s. c 17 s 4 are each amended to read as follows:

              (1) Each county that has both a population of fifty thousand or more and has had its population increase by more than ten percent in the previous ten years, and the cities located within such county, and any other county regardless of its population that has had its population increase by more than twenty percent in the previous ten years, and the cities located within such county, shall ((adopt comprehensive land use plans and development regulations under)) conform with all of the requirements of this chapter. However, the county legislative authority of such a county with a population of less than fifty thousand population may adopt a resolution removing the county, and the cities located within the county, from the requirements of adopting comprehensive land use plans and development regulations under this chapter if this resolution is adopted and filed with the department by December 31, 1990, for counties initially meeting this set of criteria, or within sixty days of the date the office of financial management certifies that a county meets this set of criteria under subsection (5) of this section.

              Once a county meets either of these sets of criteria, the requirement to conform with ((RCW 36.70A.040 through 36.70A.160)) all of the requirements of this chapter remains in effect, even if the county no longer meets one of these sets of criteria.

              (2) The county legislative authority of any county that does not meet ((the requirements of)) either of the sets of criteria established under subsection (1) of this section may adopt a resolution indicating its intention to have subsection (1) of this section apply to the county. Each city, located in a county that chooses to plan under this subsection, shall ((adopt a comprehensive land use plan in accordance with)) conform with all of the requirements of this chapter. Once such a resolution has been adopted, the county ((cannot remove itself from)) and the cities located within the county remain subject to all of the requirements of this chapter.

              (3) Any county or city that is initially required to ((adopt a comprehensive land use plan)) conform with all of the requirements of this chapter under subsection (1) of this section shall take actions under this chapter as follows: (a) The county legislative authority shall adopt a county-wide planning policy under RCW 36.70A.210; (b) the county legislative authority and governing body of each city located within the county shall designate critical areas, agricultural lands, forest lands, and mineral resource lands, and adopt development regulations conserving these designated lands and protecting these designated critical areas, under RCW 36.70A.170 and 36.70A.060; (c) the county legislative authority shall designate and take other actions related to urban growth areas under RCW 36.70A.110; (d) the county legislative authority and governing body of each city located within the county shall adopt ((the)) a comprehensive plan under this chapter and development regulations that are consistent with and implement the comprehensive plan on or before July 1, ((1993)) 1994, but a county or city may obtain an additional six months before it is required to have adopted its development regulations by submitting a letter notifying the department of community development of its need prior to the deadline for adopting both a comprehensive plan and development regulations.

              (4) Any county or city that is required to ((adopt a comprehensive land use plan)) conform with all the requirements of this chapter, as a result of the county legislative authority adopting its resolution of intention under subsection (2) of this section, shall take actions under this chapter as follows: (a) The county legislative authority shall adopt a county-wide planning policy under RCW 36.70A.210; (b) the county legislative authority and governing body of each city that is located within the county shall adopt development regulations conserving agricultural lands, forest lands, and mineral resource lands it designated under RCW 36.70A.060 within one year of the date the county legislative authority adopts its resolution of intention; (c) the county legislative authority shall designate and take other actions related to urban growth areas under RCW 36.70A.110; and (d) the county legislative authority and governing body of each city that is located within the county shall adopt ((the)) a comprehensive plan and development regulations that are consistent with and implement the comprehensive plan not later than ((three)) four years from the date the county legislative ((body takes action as required by subsection (2) of this section)) authority adopts its resolution of intention, but a county or city may obtain an additional six months before it is required to have adopted its development regulations by submitting a letter notifying the department of community development of its need prior to the deadline for adopting both a comprehensive plan and development regulations.

              (((4))) (5) If the office of financial management certifies that the population of a county that previously had not been required to plan under subsection (1) or (2) of this section has changed sufficiently to meet either of the ((requirements of)) sets of criteria specified under subsection (1) of this section, and where applicable, the county legislative authority has not adopted a resolution removing the county from these requirements as provided in subsection (1) of this section, the county and each city within such county shall ((adopt)) take actions under this chapter as follows: (a) The county legislative authority shall adopt a county-wide planning policy under RCW 36.70A.210; (b) the county legislative authority and each city governing body shall adopt development regulations under RCW 36.70A.060 conserving agricultural lands, forest lands, and mineral resource lands it designated within one year of the certification by the office of financial management; (((b))) (c) the county legislative authority shall designate and take other actions related to urban growth areas under RCW 36.70A.110; and (d) the county legislative authority and each city governing body shall adopt a comprehensive land use plan ((under this chapter)) and development regulations that are consistent with and implement the comprehensive plan within ((three)) four years of the certification by the office of financial management((; and (c) development regulations pursuant to this chapter within one year of having adopted its comprehensive land use plan)), but a county or city may obtain an additional six months before it is required to have adopted its development regulations by submitting a letter notifying the department of community development of its need prior to the deadline for adopting both a comprehensive plan and development regulations.

              (6) A copy of each document that is required under this section shall be submitted to the department at the time of its adoption.


              Sec. 2. RCW 36.70A.110 and 1991 sp.s. c 32 s 29 are each amended to read as follows:

              (1) Each county that is required or chooses to ((adopt a comprehensive land use)) plan under RCW 36.70A.040 shall designate an urban growth area or areas within which urban growth shall be encouraged and outside of which growth can occur only if it is not urban in nature. Each city that is located in such a county shall be included within an urban growth area. An urban growth area may include more than a single city. An urban growth area may include territory that is located outside of a city only if such territory already is characterized by urban growth or is adjacent to territory already characterized by urban growth.

              (2) Based upon the population growth management planning population projection made for the county by the office of financial management, the urban growth areas in the county shall include areas and densities sufficient to permit the urban growth that is projected to occur in the county for the succeeding twenty-year period. Each urban growth area shall permit urban densities and shall include greenbelt and open space areas. Within one year of July 1, 1990, each county ((required to designate urban growth areas)) that as of June 1, 1991, was required or chose to plan under RCW 36.70A.040, shall begin consulting with each city located within its boundaries and each city shall propose the location of an urban growth area. Within sixty days of the date the county legislative authority of a county adopts its resolution of intention or of certification by the office of financial management, all other counties that are required or choose to plan under RCW 36.70A.040 shall begin this consultation with each city located within its boundaries. The county shall attempt to reach agreement with each city on the location of an urban growth area within which the city is located. If such an agreement is not reached with each city located within the urban growth area, the county shall justify in writing why it so designated the area an urban growth area. A city may object formally with the department over the designation of the urban growth area within which it is located. Where appropriate, the department shall attempt to resolve the conflicts, including the use of mediation services.

              (3) Urban growth should be located first in areas already characterized by urban growth that have existing public facility and service capacities to serve such development, and second in areas already characterized by urban growth that will be served by a combination of both existing public facilities and services and any additional needed public facilities and services that are provided by either public or private sources. Further, it is appropriate that urban government services be provided by cities, and urban government services should not be provided in rural areas.

              (4) On or before October 1, 1993, each county that was initially required to plan under RCW 36.70A.040(1) shall designate urban growth areas under this chapter. Within three years and three months of the date the county legislative authority of a county adopts its resolution of intention or of certification by the office of financial management, all other counties that are required or choose to plan under RCW 36.70A.040 shall designate urban growth areas under this chapter. A permit or other authorization allowing land use activities not already vested shall not be issued or approved by a county or city after the county designates its urban growth areas if the permit or other authorization is inconsistent with these designations.

              (5) Each county shall include designations of urban growth areas in its comprehensive plan.


              Sec. 3. RCW 36.70A.120 and 1990 1st ex.s. c 17 s 12 are each amended to read as follows:

              ((Within one year of the adoption of its comprehensive plan, each county and city that is required or chooses to plan under RCW 36.70A.040 shall enact development regulations that are consistent with and implement the comprehensive plan. These counties and cities)) Each county and city that is required or chooses to plan under RCW 36.70A.040 shall perform ((their)) its activities and make capital budget decisions in conformity with ((their)) its comprehensive plan((s)).


              Sec. 4. RCW 36.70A.210 and 1991 sp.s. c 32 s 2 are each amended to read as follows:

              (1) The legislature recognizes that counties are regional governments within their boundaries, and cities are primary providers of urban governmental services within urban growth areas. For the purposes of this section, a "county-wide planning policy" is a written policy statement or statements used solely for establishing a county-wide framework from which county and city comprehensive plans are developed and adopted pursuant to this chapter. This framework shall ensure that city and county comprehensive plans are consistent as required in RCW 36.70A.100. Nothing in this section shall be construed to alter the land-use powers of cities. The exercise of the right of the people to petition for referendum is protected under RCW 4.24.500 through 4.24.520.

              (2) The legislative authority of a county that plans under RCW 36.70A.040 shall adopt a county-wide planning policy in cooperation with the cities located in whole or in part within the county as follows:

              (a) No later than sixty calendar days from July 16, 1991, the legislative authority of ((the)) each county that as of June 1, 1991, was required or chose to plan under RCW 36.70A.040 shall convene a meeting with representatives of each city located within the county for the purpose of establishing a collaborative process that will provide a framework for the adoption of a county-wide planning policy((;)). In other counties that are required or choose to plan under RCW 36.70A.040, this meeting shall be convened no later than sixty days after the date the county adopts its resolution of intention or was certified by the office of financial management.

              (b) The process and framework for adoption of a county-wide planning policy specified in (a) of this subsection shall determine the manner in which the county and the cities agree to all procedures and provisions including but not limited to desired planning policies, deadlines, ratification of final agreements and demonstration thereof, and financing, if any, of all activities associated therewith((;)).

              (c) If a county fails for any reason to convene a meeting with representatives of cities as required in (a) of this subsection, the governor may immediately impose any appropriate sanction or sanctions on the county from those specified under RCW 36.70A.340((;)).

              (d) If there is no agreement by October 1, 1991, in a county that was required or chose to plan under RCW 36.70A.040 as of June 1, 1991, or if there is no agreement within one hundred twenty days of the date the county adopted its resolution of intention or was certified by the office of financial management in any other county that is required or chooses to plan under RCW 36.70A.040, the governor shall first inquire of the jurisdictions as to the reason or reasons for failure to reach an agreement. If the governor deems it appropriate, the governor may immediately request the assistance of the department of community development to mediate any disputes that preclude agreement. If mediation is unsuccessful in resolving all disputes that will lead to agreement, the governor may impose appropriate sanctions from those specified under RCW 36.70A.340 on the county, city, or cities for failure to reach an agreement as provided in this section. The governor shall specify the reason or reasons for the imposition of any sanction((; and)).

              (e) No later than July 1, 1992, the legislative authority of ((the)) each county that was required or chose to plan under RCW 36.70A.040 as of June 1, 1991, or no later than fourteen months after the date the county adopted its resolution of intention or was certified by the office of financial management the county legislative authority of any other county that is required or chooses to plan under RCW 36.70A.040, shall adopt a county-wide planning policy according to the process provided under this section and that is consistent with the agreement pursuant to (b) of this subsection, and after holding a public hearing or hearings on the proposed county-wide planning policy.

              (3) A county-wide planning policy shall at a minimum, address the following:

              (a) Policies to implement RCW 36.70A.110;

              (b) Policies for promotion of contiguous and orderly development and provision of urban services to such development;

              (c) Policies for siting public capital facilities of a county-wide or state-wide nature;

              (d) Policies for county-wide transportation facilities and strategies;

              (e) Policies that consider the need for affordable housing, such as housing for all economic segments of the population and parameters for its distribution;

              (f) Policies for joint county and city planning within urban growth areas;

              (g) Policies for county-wide economic development and employment; and

              (h) An analysis of the fiscal impact.

              (4) Federal agencies and Indian tribes may participate in and cooperate with the county-wide planning policy adoption process. Adopted county-wide planning policies shall be adhered to by state agencies.

              (5) Failure to adopt a county-wide planning policy that meets the requirements of this section may result in the imposition of a sanction or sanctions on a county or city within the county, as specified in RCW 36.70A.340. In imposing a sanction or sanctions, the governor shall specify the reasons for failure to adopt a county-wide planning policy in order that any imposed sanction or sanctions are fairly and equitably related to the failure to adopt a county-wide planning policy.

              (6) Cities and the governor may appeal an adopted county-wide planning policy to the growth planning hearings board within sixty days of the adoption of the county-wide planning policy.

              (7) Multicounty planning policies shall be adopted by two or more counties, each with a population of four hundred fifty thousand or more, with contiguous urban areas and may be adopted by other counties, according to the process established under this section or other processes agreed to among the counties and cities within the affected counties throughout the multicounty region.


              NEW SECTION. Sec. 5. A new section is added to chapter 36.70A RCW to read as follows:

              The governor may impose upon any county or city that is required or that chooses to plan under RCW 35.70A.040 a sanction or sanctions specified under RCW 36.70A.340 on: (1) A county or city that fails to designate critical areas, agricultural lands, forest lands, or mineral resource lands under RCW 36.70A.170 by the date such action was required to have been taken; (2) a county or city that fails to adopt development regulations under RCW 36.70A.060 protecting critical areas or conserving agricultural lands, forest lands, or mineral resource lands by the date such action was required to have been taken; (3) a county that fails to designate urban growth areas under RCW 36.70A.110 by the date such action was required to have been taken; and (4) a county or city that fails to adopt its comprehensive plan or development regulations when such actions are required to be taken.

              Imposition of sanctions under this section shall be preceded by written findings by the governor that the county or city is not proceeding in good faith to meet the requirements of the act and that adequate state funding has been provided to the county or city to accomplish the goals of the act. A delay caused by an initiative or referendum on subjects covered in chapter ..., Laws of 1993 (this act) is not an unreasonable delay.


              Sec. 6. RCW 82.02.050 and 1990 1st ex.s. c 17 s 43 are each amended to read as follows:

              (1) It is the intent of the legislature:

              (a) To ensure that adequate facilities are available to serve new growth and development;

              (b) To promote orderly growth and development by establishing standards by which counties, cities, and towns may require, by ordinance, that new growth and development pay a proportionate share of the cost of new facilities needed to serve new growth and development; and

              (c) To ensure that impact fees are imposed through established procedures and criteria so that specific developments do not pay arbitrary fees or duplicative fees for the same impact.

              (2) Counties, cities, and towns that are required or choose to plan under RCW 36.70A.040 are authorized to impose impact fees on development activity as part of the financing for public facilities, provided that the financing for system improvements to serve new development must provide for a balance between impact fees and other sources of public funds and cannot rely solely on impact fees.

              (3) The impact fees:

              (a) Shall only be imposed for system improvements that are reasonably related to the new development;

              (b) Shall not exceed a proportionate share of the costs of system improvements that are reasonably related to the new development; and

              (c) Shall be used for system improvements that will reasonably benefit the new development.

              (4) Impact fees may be collected and spent only for the public facilities defined in RCW 82.02.090 which are addressed by a capital facilities plan element of a comprehensive land use plan adopted pursuant to the provisions of RCW 36.70A.070 or the provisions for comprehensive plan adoption contained in chapter 36.70, 35.63, or 35A.63 RCW. After ((July 1, 1993)) the date a county, city, or town is required to adopt its comprehensive plan and development regulations under chapter 36.70A RCW, continued authorization to collect and expend impact fees shall be contingent on the county, city, or town adopting or revising a comprehensive plan in compliance with RCW 36.70A.070, and on the capital facilities plan identifying:

              (a) Deficiencies in public facilities serving existing development and the means by which existing deficiencies will be eliminated within a reasonable period of time;

              (b) Additional demands placed on existing public facilities by new development; and

              (c) Additional public facility improvements required to serve new development.

              If the capital facilities plan of the county, city, or town is complete other than for the inclusion of those elements which are the responsibility of a special district, the county, city, or town may impose impact fees to address those public facility needs for which the county, city, or town is responsible.


              NEW SECTION. Sec. 7. This act is necessary for the immediate preservation of the public peace, health, or safety, or support of the state government and its existing public institutions, and shall take effect June 1, 1993."

              On page 1, line 2 of the title, after "years;" strike the remainder of the title and insert "amending RCW 36.70A.040, 36.70A.110, 36.70A.120, 36.70A.210, and 82.02.050; adding a new section to chapter 36.70A RCW; providing an effective date; and declaring an emergency."

Mr. Speaker:


              The Senate has passed ENGROSSED SUBSTITUTE HOUSE BILL NO. 1818, with the following amendment:


              Strike everything after the enacting clause and insert the following:

              "NEW SECTION. Sec. 1. The legislature finds that military base expansions, closures, and defense procurement contract cancellations may have extreme economic impacts on communities and firms. The legislature began to address this concern in 1990 by establishing the community diversification program in the department of community development. While this program has helped military dependent communities begin the long road to diversification, base expansions or closures or major procurement contract reductions in the near future will find these communities unable to respond adequately, endangering the health, safety, and welfare of the community. The legislature intends to target emergency state assistance to military dependent communities significantly impacted by defense spending. The emergency state assistance and the long-term strategy should be driven by the impacted community and consistent with the state plan for diversification required under RCW 43.63A.450(4).


              NEW SECTION. Sec. 2. A new section is added to chapter 43.06 RCW to read as follows:

              (1) The governor may, by executive order, after consultation with the executive-legislative committee on economic development created by chapter ... (Senate Bill No. 5300), Laws of 1993, declare a community to be a "military impacted area." A "military impacted area" means a community or communities, as identified in the executive order, that experience serious social and economic hardships because of a change in defense spending by the federal government in that community or communities.

              (2) If the governor executes an order under subsection (1) of this section, the governor shall establish a response team to coordinate state efforts to assist the military impacted community. The response team may include, but not be limited to, one member from each of the following agencies: (a) The department of community development; (b) the department of trade and economic development; (c) the department of social and health services; (d) the employment security department; (e) the state board for community and technical colleges; (f) the higher education coordinating board; (g) the department of transportation; and (h) the Washington energy office. The governor may appoint a response team coordinator. The governor shall seek to actively involve the impacted community or communities in planning and implementing a response to the crisis. The governor may seek input or assistance from the community diversification advisory committee, and the governor may establish task forces in the community or communities to assist in the coordination and delivery of services to the local community. The state and community response shall consider economic development, human service, and training needs of the community or communities impacted.

              (3) The governor shall report at the beginning of the next legislative session to the legislature and the executive-legislative committee on economic development created by chapter ... (Senate Bill No. 5300), Laws of 1993, as to the designation of a military impacted area. The report shall include recommendations regarding whether a military impacted area should become eligible for (a) funding provided by the community economic revitalization board, public facilities construction loan revolving account, Washington state development loan fund, basic health plan, the public works assistance account, department of trade and economic development, employment security department, and department of transportation; (b) training for dislocated defense workers; or (c) services for dislocated defense workers."

              With the consent of the House, further consideration of House Bill No. 1984 was deferred.


SENATE AMENDMENTS TO HOUSE BILL


April 13, 1993


Mr. Speaker:


              The Senate has passed ENGROSSED SUBSTITUTE HOUSE BILL NO. 2067, with the following amendment:


              Strike everything after the enacting clause and insert the following:

              "NEW SECTION. Sec. 1.The legislature finds that reducing the number of commute trips to work is an effective way of reducing automobile-related air pollution, traffic congestion, and energy use. The legislature intends that state agencies shall assume a leadership role in implementing programs to reduce vehicle miles traveled and single-occupant vehicle commuting, under RCW 70.94.521 through 70.94.551.

              The legislature has established and directed an interagency task force to consider mechanisms for funding state agency commute trip reduction programs; and to consider and recommend policies for employee incentives for commuting by other than single-occupant vehicles, and policies for the use of state-owned vehicles.

              It is the purpose of this act to provide state agencies with the authority to provide employee incentives, including subsidies for use of high occupancy vehicles to meet commute trip reduction goals, and to remove existing statutory barriers for state agencies to use public funds, including parking revenue, to operate, maintain, lease, or construct parking facilities at state-owned and leased facilities, to reduce parking subsidies, and to support commute trip reduction programs.

              It is also the purpose of this act to revise other portions of state law that will assist state agencies in meeting their commute trip reduction requirements. A revision to the requirement for motor vehicle tax exemptions for owners of ride-sharing vehicles is one cost-effective and practical incentive that encourages state employees to commute by carpool and vanpool.


              NEW SECTION. Sec. 2. A new section is added to chapter 43.01 RCW to read as follows:

              The definitions in this section apply throughout this chapter.

              (1) "Guaranteed ride home" means an assured ride home for commuters participating in a commute trip reduction program who are not able to use their normal commute mode because of personal emergencies.

              (2) "Pledged" means parking revenue designated through any means, including moneys received from the natural resource building, which is used for the debt service payment of bonds issued for parking facilities.


              Sec. 3. RCW 43.41.140 and 1979 c 151 s 119 are each amended to read as follows:

              Pursuant to policies and regulations promulgated by the office of financial management ((after consultation with and approval by the automotive policy board)), an elected state officer or ((his)) delegate or a state agency director or ((his)) delegate may permit an employee ((commuting)) to commute in a state-owned or leased vehicle ((only)) if such travel is on official business, as determined in accordance with RCW 43.41.130, and is determined to be economical and advantageous to the state, or as part of a commute trip reduction program as required by RCW 70.94.551.


              Sec. 4. RCW 46.08.172 and 1991 sp.s. c 31 s 12 and 1991 sp.s. c 13 s 41 are each reenacted and amended to read as follows:

              ((There is hereby established an account in the state treasury to be known as the "state capitol vehicle parking account".)) The director of the department of general administration shall establish equitable and consistent parking rental fees for state-owned or leased property, to be charged to employees, visitors, clients, service providers, and others, that reflect the legislature's intent to reduce state subsidization of parking. The department shall solicit representatives from affected state agencies, employees, and state employee bargaining units to meet as regional committees. These regional committees will advise the director on parking rental fees, taking into account the market rate of comparable, privately owned rental parking in each region. In the event that such fees become part of a collective bargaining agreement and there is a conflict between the agency and the collective bargaining unit, the terms of the collective bargaining agreement shall prevail. All fees shall take into account the market rate of comparable privately owned rental parking, as determined by the director. ((All unpledged parking rental income collected by the department of general administration from rental of parking space on the capitol grounds and the east capitol site shall be deposited in the "state capitol vehicle parking account".)) However, parking rental fees are not to exceed the local market rate of comparable privately owned rental parking.

              The director may delegate the responsibility for the collection of parking fees to other agencies of state government when cost-effective.

              ((The "state capitol vehicle parking account" shall be used to pay costs incurred in the operation, maintenance, regulation and enforcement of vehicle parking and parking facilities.))


              NEW SECTION. Sec. 5. A new section is added to chapter 43.01 RCW to read as follows:

              There is hereby established an account in the state treasury to be known as the "state capitol vehicle parking account." All parking rental income collected from rental of parking space at state-owned or leased property shall be deposited in the "state capitol vehicle parking account." Revenue deposited in the "state capitol vehicle parking account" shall be first applied to pledged purposes. Unpledged parking revenues deposited in the "state capitol vehicle parking account" may be used to:

              (1) Pay costs incurred in the operation, maintenance, regulation, and enforcement of vehicle parking and parking facilities on state-owned or leased properties;

              (2) Support the lease costs and/or capital investment costs of vehicle parking and parking facilities at agency-owned and leased facilities off the capitol campus; and

              (3) Support commute trip reduction programs under RCW 70.94.521 through 70.94.551.

              Distribution of funds from the "state capitol vehicle parking account" are subject to appropriation by the legislature and will be made by the office of financial management after considering recommendations from the director of general administration and the interagency task force for commute trip reduction, under RCW 70.94.551.


              NEW SECTION. Sec. 6. A new section is added to chapter 43.01 RCW to read as follows:

              State agencies may, subject to appropriation and under the internal revenue code rules, use public funds to financially assist agency-approved incentives for alternative commute modes, including but not limited to carpools, vanpools, purchase of transit and ferry passes, and guaranteed ride home programs, if the financial assistance is an element of the agency's commute trip reduction program as required under RCW 70.94.521 through 70.94.551. This section does not permit any payment for the use of state-owned vehicles for commuter ride sharing.


              NEW SECTION. Sec. 7. A new section is added to chapter 43.01 RCW to read as follows:

              All state higher education institutions are exempt from section 5 of this act.


              Sec. 8. RCW 82.44.015 and 1982 c 142 s 1 are each amended to read as follows:

              For the purposes of this chapter, in addition to the exclusions under RCW 82.44.010, "motor vehicle" shall not include: (1) ((Vans)) Passenger motor vehicles used ((regularly)) primarily as ride-sharing vehicles, as defined in RCW 46.74.010(3), by not fewer than ((seven)) four persons, including passengers and driver((, or not fewer than five persons including the driver, when at least three of those persons are confined to wheelchairs when riding)); or (2) vehicles with a seating capacity greater than fifteen persons which otherwise qualify as ride-sharing vehicles under RCW 46.74.010(3) used exclusively for ride sharing for the elderly or the handicapped by not fewer than seven persons, including driver. The registered owner of one of these vehicles shall notify the department of licensing upon termination of ((regular)) primary use of the vehicle as a ride-sharing vehicle and shall be liable for the tax imposed by this chapter, prorated on the remaining months for which the vehicle is licensed.


              Sec. 9. RCW 46.16.023 and 1987 c 175 s 2 are each amended to read as follows:

              (1) Every owner or lessee of a vehicle seeking to apply for an excise tax exemption under RCW 82.08.0287, 82.12.0282, or 82.44.015 shall apply to the director for, and upon satisfactory showing of eligibility, receive in lieu of the regular motor vehicle license plates for that vehicle, special plates of a distinguishing separate numerical series or design, as the director shall prescribe. In addition to paying all other initial fees required by law, each applicant for the special license plates shall pay an additional license fee of twenty-five dollars upon the issuance of such plates. The special fee shall be deposited in the motor vehicle fund. Application for renewal of the license plates shall be as prescribed for the renewal of other vehicle licenses. No renewal is required for vehicles exempted under RCW 46.16.020.

              (2) Whenever the ownership of a vehicle receiving special plates under subsection (1) of this section is transferred or assigned, the plates shall be removed from the motor vehicle, and if another vehicle qualifying for special plates is acquired, the plates shall be transferred to that vehicle for a fee of five dollars, and the director shall be immediately notified of the transfer of the plates. Otherwise the removed plates shall be immediately forwarded to the director to be canceled. Whenever the owner or lessee of a vehicle receiving special plates under subsection (1) of this section is for any reason relieved of the tax-exempt status, the special plates shall immediately be forwarded to the director along with an application for replacement plates and the required fee. Upon receipt the director shall issue the license plates that are otherwise provided by law.

              (3) Any person who shall knowingly make any false statement of a material fact in the application for a special plate under subsection (1) of this section shall be guilty of a gross misdemeanor."

              On page 1, line 1 of the title, after "programs;" strike the remainder of the title and insert "amending RCW 43.41.140, 82.44.015, and 46.16.023; reenacting and amending RCW 46.08.172; adding new sections to chapter 43.01 RCW; creating a new section; and prescribing penalties."

SENATE AMENDMENTS TO HOUSE BILL


April 13, 1993


Mr. Speaker:


              The Senate has passed ENGROSSED SUBSTITUTE HOUSE BILL NO. 1209 with the following amendment:


              Strike everything after the enacting clause and insert the following:

              "NEW SECTION. Sec. 1. This act may be known and cited as the performance-based education act.


              NEW SECTION. Sec. 2. (1)(a) The mission of Washington's K-12 education system is to enable people to be responsible citizens, to contribute to their own economic well-being and to that of their families and communities, and to enjoy productive lives. To these ends, schools, together with parents and communities, shall strive to help all students develop the knowledge, skills, and attributes essential to function effectively and lead successful lives. Although schools, parents, and communities shall strive together in this mission, the legislature still believes that the primary functions of school and home differ: Ideally, school is where children learn to learn; home is where they learn to live.

              (b) This mission is based on the recognition that our education system needs to keep pace with societal changes, changes in workplace environments, and an ever-changing international community. Finally, the mission recognizes that the education must be improved to prepare students better to meet the challenges of their future, including acquisition of certain skills and knowledge and the ability to act on information and conclusions once they have assimilated and analyzed information.

              (c) This mission can be accomplished through a restructured system of world-class, performance-based education requiring all the elements in chapter . . ., Laws of 1993 (this act).

              (2) For all parents, greater involvement in their child's education is critical to their child's success. It is the intent of chapter . . ., Laws of 1993 (this act) that parents be primary partners in the education of their children. Parents should also play a significant role in local school decision making affecting instruction at the school level.

              (3) Creating a performance-based education system will require different ways of making decisions and completing work. Additional improvements envisioned will be brought about through different practices at the local level. Collaboration among parents, students, educators, community members, and elected officials will become a strong part of everyday effort. All systems and programs will be focused on what is best for increasing student achievement. In addition to a focused mission, other areas of paramount concern in school shall be the maintenance of order; the spending of time on the tasks; and maintenance of high expectations for all students. The purpose is to strive to help all students master the essential learning requirements.

PART XI

TECHNOLOGY


              NEW SECTION. Sec. 1101. The legislature recognizes the ongoing necessity for public schools to use up-to-date tools for learning to meet goals for education. To participate successfully in the contemporary workplace, students should be able to use technology and be able to get information electronically. Workplace technology requirements will continue to change and students should learn the new requirements.

              Furthermore, the legislature finds that the Washington systemic initiative is a broad-based effort to promote widespread public literacy in mathematics, science, and technology. A critical component of the systemic initiative is the electronic access to information by students. It is the intent of the legislature that components of sections 1102 through 1105 of this act will support the state-wide systemic reform effort in mathematics, science, and technology as planned through the Washington systemic initiative.


              NEW SECTION. Sec. 1102. Unless the context clearly requires otherwise, the definitions in this section apply throughout sections 1101 through 1105 of this act.

              (1) "Education technology" means the effective use of electronic tools and electronic pathways in meeting goals established for education.

              (2) "Network" means integrated linking of education technology systems in schools for transmission of voice, data, video, or imaging, or a combination of these.


              NEW SECTION. Sec. 1103.

PART XIV

SCHOOL-TO-WORK TRANSITIONS


              NEW SECTION. Sec. 1401.

              (4) The legislature further finds that secondary schools should provide students with multiple, flexible educational pathways. Each educational pathway should:

              (a) Prepare students to demonstrate both core competencies common for all students and competencies in a career or interest area;

              (b) Integrate academic and vocational education into a single curriculum; and

              (c) Provide both classroom and workplace experience.

Instruction shall include a combination of classroom and actual workplace learning. Workplace experience shall account for a minimum of forty percent of the total instruction provided over the life of the school-to-work transition program. Yearly percentages may vary during the program. Goals of the projects within the program shall include at a minimum:

              (1) Integration of vocational and academic instructional curriculum into a single curriculum;

              (2) Providing each student with a choice of multiple, flexible educational pathways based on the student's career or interest area;

              (3) Emphasis on increased vocational((, personal,)) and academic guidance and counseling for students as an essential component of the student's high school experience;

              (((3))) (4) Development of student essential academic learning requirements, methods of accurately measuring student performance, and goals for improved student learning;

              (5) Partnership with local employers and employees to incorporate work sites as part of work-based learning experiences;

              (6) Active participation of educators in the planning, implementation, and operation of the project, including increased opportunities for professional development and in-service training; ((and))

SENATE AMENDMENTS TO HOUSE BILL


April 1, 1993


Mr. Speaker:


              The Senate has passed SUBSTITUTE HOUSE BILL NO. 1260 with the following amendment:


              Strike everything after the enacting clause and insert the following:

              "Sec. 1. RCW 81.04.130 and 1984 c 143 s 1 are each amended to read as follows:

              Whenever any public service company, other than a railroad company, files with the commission any schedule, classification, rule, or regulation, the effect of which is to change any rate, fare, charge, rental, or toll previously charged, the commission has power, either upon its own motion or upon complaint, upon notice, to hold a hearing concerning the proposed change and the reasonableness and justness of it. Pending the hearing and the decision the commission may suspend the operation of the rate, fare, charge, rental, or toll, if the change is proposed by a common carrier subject to the jurisdiction of the commission, other than a solid waste collection company, for a period not exceeding seven months, and, if proposed by a ((public service company other than such a common carrier)) solid waste collection company, for a period not exceeding ten months from the time the change would otherwise go into effect. After a full hearing the commission may make such order in reference to the change as would be provided in a hearing initiated after the change had become effective.

              At any hearing involving any change in any schedule, classification, rule, or regulation the effect of which is to increase any rate, fare, charge, rental, or toll theretofore charged, the burden of proof to show that such increase is just and reasonable is upon the public service company. When any common carrier subject to the jurisdiction of the commission files any tariff, classification, rule, or regulation the effect of which is to decrease any rate, fare, or charge, the burden of proof to show that such decrease is just and reasonable is upon the common carrier.


              Sec. 2. RCW 81.28.050 and 1984 c 143 s 5 are each amended to read as follows:

              Unless the commission otherwise orders, no change may be made in any classification, rate, fare, charge, rule, or regulation filed and published by a common carrier other than a rail carrier, except after thirty days' notice to the commission and to the public. In the case of a solid waste collection company, no such change may be made except after forty-five days' notice to the commission and to the public. The notice shall be published as provided in RCW 81.28.040 and shall plainly state the changes proposed to be made in the schedule then in force and the time when the changed rate, classification, fare, or charge will go into effect. All proposed changes shall be shown by printing, filing, and publishing new schedules or shall be plainly indicated upon the schedules in force at the time and kept open to public inspection. In the case of a change proposed by a rail carrier, except for changes to rail contracts between a rail carrier and a shipper authorized under RCW 81.34.070, which changes become effective in accordance with that section, a proposal resulting in a rate increase or a new rate shall not become effective for twenty days after the notice is published, and a proposal resulting in a rate decrease shall not become effective for ten days after the notice is published. The commission, for good cause shown, may by order allow changes in rates without requiring the notice and the publication time periods specified in this section. When any change is made in any rate, fare, charge, classification, rule, or regulation, attention shall be directed to the change by some character on the schedule. The character and its placement shall be designated by the commission. The commission may, by order, for good cause shown, allow changes in any rate, fare, charge, classification, rule, or regulation without requiring any character to indicate each and every change to be made.


              NEW SECTION. Sec. 3. A new section is added to chapter 70.95 RCW to read as follows:

              To provide solid waste collection companies with sufficient time to prepare and submit tariffs and rate filings for public comment and commission approval, the owner or operator of a transfer station, landfill, or facility used to burn solid waste shall provide seventy-five days' notice to solid waste collection companies of any change in tipping fees and disposal rate schedules. The notice period shall begin on the date individual notice to a collection company is delivered to the company or is postmarked.

              A collection company may agree to a shorter notice period: PROVIDED, That such agreement by a company shall not affect the notice requirements for rate filings under RCW 81.28.050.

              The owner of a transfer station, landfill or facility used to burn solid waste may agree to provide companies with a longer notice period.

              "Solid waste collection companies" as used in this section means the companies regulated by the commission pursuant to chapter 81.77 RCW."

              On page 1, line 2 of the title, after "commission;" strike the remainder of the title and insert "amending RCW 81.04.130 and 81.28.050; and adding a new section to chapter 70.95 RCW."

              Strike everything after the enacting clause and insert the following:

              "Sec. 1. RCW 28B.15.820 and 1985 c 390 s 35 are each amended to read as follows:

              (1) Each institution of higher education shall deposit two and one-half percent of revenues collected from tuition and services and activities fees in an institutional long-term loan fund which is hereby created and which shall be held locally. Moneys in such fund shall be used to make guaranteed loans to eligible students except as provided for in subsections (9) and (10) of this section.

              (2) With the exception of subsection (9) of this section, an "eligible student" for the purposes of this section is a student registered for at least six credit hours or the equivalent, who is eligible for resident tuition and fee rates as defined in RCW 28B.15.012 through 28B.15.015, and who is a "needy student" as defined in RCW 28B.10.802.

              (3) The amount of the loans made under subsection (1) of this section shall not exceed the demonstrated financial need of the student. Each institution shall establish loan terms and conditions which shall be consistent with the terms of the guaranteed loan program established by 20 U.S. Code Section 1071 et seq., as now or hereafter amended. All loans made shall be guaranteed by the Washington student loan guaranty association or its successor agency. Institutions are hereby granted full authority to operate as an eligible lender under the guaranteed loan program. Twenty percent of the total institutional long-term loan fund shall be used for the sole purpose of long-term loans repayable by the borrower and twenty percent of the institutional long-term loan fund shall be used for the sole purpose of short-term loans repayable by the borrower.

              (4) Before approving a guaranteed loan, each institution shall analyze the ability of the student to repay the loan based on factors which include, but are not limited to, the student's accumulated total education loan burdens and the employment opportunities and average starting salary characteristics of the student's chosen fields of study. The institution shall counsel the student on the advisability of acquiring additional debt, and on the availability of other forms of financial aid.

              (5) Each institution is responsible for collection of loans made under subsection (1) of this section and shall exercise due diligence in such collection, maintaining all necessary records to insure that maximum repayments are made. Institutions shall cooperate with other lenders and the Washington student loan guaranty association, or its successor agency, in the coordinated collection of guaranteed loans, and shall assure that the guarantability of the loans is not violated. Collection and servicing of loans under subsection (1) of this section shall be performed by entities approved for such servicing by the Washington student loan guaranty association or its successor agency: PROVIDED, That institutions be permitted to perform such servicing if specifically recognized to do so by the Washington student loan guaranty association or its successor agency. Collection and servicing of loans made by community colleges under subsection (1) of this section shall be coordinated by the state board for community and technical colleges ((education)) and shall be conducted under procedures adopted by such state board.

              (6) Receipts from payment of interest or principal or any other subsidies to which institutions as lenders are entitled, which are paid by or on behalf of borrowers of funds under subsection (1) of this section, shall be deposited in each institution's general local fund and shall be used to cover the costs of making the loans under subsection (1) of this section and maintaining necessary records and making collections under subsection (5) of this section: PROVIDED, That such costs shall not exceed five percent of aggregate outstanding loan principle. Institutions shall maintain accurate records of such costs, and all receipts beyond those necessary to pay such costs, shall be used for the support of the institution's operating budget.

              (7) The boards of regents of the state universities, the boards of trustees of the regional universities and The Evergreen State College, and the state board for community and technical colleges ((education)), on behalf of the community colleges, shall each adopt necessary rules and regulations to implement this section.

              (8) Lending activities under this section shall be directed toward students who would not normally have access to educational loans from private financial institutions in Washington state, and maximum use shall be made of secondary markets in the support of loan consolidation.

              (9) Short-term ((interim)) loans, not to exceed one ((hundred twenty days)) year, may be made from the institutional long-term loan fund to students ((eligible for guaranteed student loans and whose receipt of such loans is pending. Such short-term loans shall not be subject to the guarantee restrictions or the constraints of federal law imposed by subsection (3) of this section)) enrolled in the institution. No such loan shall be made to any student who is known by the institution to be in default or delinquent in the payment of any outstanding student loan. A short-term loan may be made only if the institution has ample evidence that the student has the capability of repaying the loan within the time frame specified by the institution for repayment.

              (10) Any moneys deposited in the institutional long-term loan fund which are not used in making long or short term loans or transferred to institutional operating budgets may be used by the institution for locally-administered financial aid programs for needy students, such as need-based institutional employment programs or need-based tuition and fee waiver programs. These funds shall be used in addition to and not to replace institutional funds which would otherwise support these locally-administered financial aid programs. Priority in the use of these funds shall be given to needy students who have accumulated excessive educational loan burdens. An excessive educational loan burden is a burden that will be difficult to repay given employment opportunities and average starting salaries in the student's chosen fields of study."

              On page 1, line 1 of the title, after "aid;" strike the remainder of the title and insert "and amending RCW 28B.15.820."

              Strike everything after the enacting clause and insert the following:

              "Sec. 1. RCW 46.61.515 and 1985 c 352 s 1 are each amended to read as follows:

              (1) Every person who is convicted of a violation of RCW 46.61.502 or 46.61.504 shall be punished by imprisonment for not less than twenty-four consecutive hours nor more than one year, and by a fine of not less than two hundred fifty dollars and not more than one thousand dollars. Unless the judge finds the person to be indigent, two hundred fifty dollars of the fine shall not be suspended or deferred. Twenty-four consecutive hours of the jail sentence shall not be suspended or deferred unless the judge finds that the imposition of the jail sentence will pose a risk to the defendant's physical or mental well-being. Whenever the mandatory jail sentence is suspended or deferred, the judge must state, in writing, the reason for granting the suspension or deferral and the facts upon which the suspension or deferral is based. The court may impose conditions of probation that may include nonrepetition, alcohol or drug treatment, supervised probation, or other conditions that may be appropriate. The convicted person shall, in addition, be required to complete a course in an alcohol information school approved by the department of social and health services or more intensive treatment in a program approved by the department of social and health services, as determined by the court. A diagnostic evaluation and treatment recommendation shall be prepared under the direction of the court by an alcoholism agency approved by the department of social and health services or a qualified probation department approved by the department of social and health services. A copy of the report shall be forwarded to the department of licensing. Based on the diagnostic evaluation, the court shall determine whether the convicted person shall be required to complete a course in an alcohol information school approved by the department of social and health services or more intensive treatment in a program approved by the department of social and health services. Standards for approval for alcohol treatment programs shall be prescribed by rule under the administrative procedure act, chapter 34.05 RCW. The courts shall periodically review the costs of alcohol information schools and treatment programs within their jurisdictions.

              (2) On a second or subsequent conviction for driving or being in physical control of a motor vehicle while under the influence of intoxicating liquor or drugs within a five-year period a person shall be punished by imprisonment for not less than seven days nor more than one year and by a fine of not less than five hundred dollars and not more than two thousand dollars. District courts and courts organized under chapter 35.20 RCW are authorized to impose such fine. Unless the judge finds the person to be indigent, five hundred dollars of the fine shall not be suspended or deferred. The jail sentence shall not be suspended or deferred unless the judge finds that the imposition of the jail sentence will pose a risk to the defendant's physical or mental well-being. Whenever the mandatory jail sentence is suspended or deferred, the judge must state, in writing, the reason for granting the suspension or deferral and the facts upon which the suspension or deferral is based. If, at the time of a second or subsequent conviction, the driver is without a license or permit because of a previous suspension or revocation, the minimum mandatory sentence shall be ninety days in jail and a two hundred dollar fine. The penalty so imposed shall not be suspended or deferred. The person shall, in addition, be required to complete a diagnostic evaluation by an alcoholism agency approved by the department of social and health services or a qualified probation department approved by the department of social and health services. The report shall be forwarded to the department of licensing. If the person is found to have an alcohol or drug problem requiring treatment, the person shall complete treatment at an approved alcoholism treatment ((facility)) program or approved drug treatment center.

              In addition to any nonsuspendable and nondeferrable jail sentence required by this subsection, the court shall sentence a person to a term of imprisonment not exceeding one hundred eighty days and shall suspend but shall not defer the sentence for a period not exceeding two years. The suspension of the sentence may be conditioned upon nonrepetition, alcohol or drug treatment, supervised probation, or other conditions that may be appropriate. The sentence may be imposed in whole or in part upon violation of a condition of suspension during the suspension period.

              (3) The license or permit to drive or any nonresident privilege of any person convicted of driving or being in physical control of a motor vehicle while under the influence of intoxicating liquor or drugs shall:

              (a) On the first conviction under either offense, be suspended by the department until the person reaches age nineteen or for ninety days, whichever is longer. The department of licensing shall determine the person's eligibility for licensing based upon the reports provided by the designated alcoholism agency or probation department and shall deny reinstatement until enrollment and participation in an approved program has been established and the person is otherwise qualified;

              (b) On a second conviction under either offense within a five-year period, be revoked by the department for one year. The department of licensing shall determine the person's eligibility for licensing based upon the reports provided by the designated alcoholism agency or probation department and shall deny reinstatement until satisfactory progress in an approved program has been established and the person is otherwise qualified;

              (c) On a third or subsequent conviction of driving or being in physical control of a motor vehicle while under the influence of intoxicating liquor or drugs, vehicular homicide, or vehicular assault, or any combination thereof within a five-year period, be revoked by the department for two years.

              (4) In any case provided for in this section, where a driver's license is to be revoked or suspended, the revocation or suspension shall be stayed and shall not take effect until after the determination of any appeal from the conviction which may lawfully be taken, but in case the conviction is sustained on appeal the revocation or suspension takes effect as of the date that the conviction becomes effective for other purposes.

              (5)(a) In addition to penalties set forth in this section, a one hundred twenty-five dollar fee shall be assessed to a person who is either convicted, sentenced to a lesser charge, or given deferred prosecution, as a result of an arrest for violating RCW 46.61.502, 46.61.504, 46.61.520, or 46.61.522. This fee is for the purpose of funding the Washington state toxicology laboratory and the Washington state patrol breath test program.

              (b) Upon a verified petition by the person assessed the fee, the court may suspend payment of all or part of the fee if it finds that the person does not have the ability to pay.

              (c) When a minor has been adjudicated a juvenile offender for an offense which, if committed by an adult, would constitute a violation of RCW 46.61.502, 46.61.504, 46.61.520, or 46.61.522, the court shall assess the one hundred twenty-five dollar fee under (a) of this subsection. Upon a verified petition by a minor assessed the fee, the court may suspend payment of all or part of the fee if it finds that the minor does not have the ability to pay the fee.

              (6) The fee assessed under subsection (5) of this section shall be collected by the clerk of the court and distributed as follows:

              (a) Forty percent shall be subject to distribution under RCW 3.62.020, 3.62.040, or 10.82.040.

              (b) If the case involves a blood test by the state toxicology laboratory, the remainder of the fee shall be forwarded to the state treasurer for deposit in the death investigations account to be used solely for funding the state toxicology laboratory blood testing program.

              (c) Otherwise, the remainder of the fee shall be forwarded to the state treasurer for deposit in the state patrol highway account to be used solely for funding the Washington state patrol breath test program.


              NEW SECTION. Sec. 2. The Washington state patrol in conjunction with the traffic safety commission shall use a small percentage of the revenues generated under the 1993 amendments to RCW 46.61.515 contained in section 1, chapter ..., Laws of 1993 (section 1 of this act), to perform a study to determine a mechanism for evaluating the best practice for increasing the conviction rate for persons driving under the influence of alcohol or drugs. The study must be completed and a report made to the appropriate committees of the legislature by June 30, 1995.


              NEW SECTION. Sec. 3. The 1993 amendments to section 1 of this act expire June 30, 1995.


              NEW SECTION. Sec. 4. This act is necessary for the immediate preservation of the public peace, health, or safety, or support of the state government and its existing public institutions, and shall take effect July 1, 1993."

SENATE AMENDMENTS TO HOUSE BILL


April 13, 1993


Mr. Speaker:


              The Senate has passed SUBSTITUTE HOUSE BILL NO. 1012, with the following amendment:


              Strike everything after the enacting clause and insert the following:

              "NEW SECTION. Sec. 1. The legislature finds that:

              (1) The demand for donor organs and body parts exceeds the available supply for transplant.

              (2) The discussion regarding advance directives including anatomical gifts is most appropriate with the primary care provider during an office visit.

              (3) Federal law requires hospitals, skilled nursing facilities, home health agencies, and hospice programs to provide information regarding advance directives.

              (4) Discretion and sensitivity must be used in discussion and requests for anatomical gifts.

              The legislature declares that it is in the best interest of the citizens of Washington to provide a program that will increase the number of anatomical gifts available for donation, and the legislature further declares that wherever possible policies and procedures required in this chapter shall be consistent with the federal requirements.


              NEW SECTION. Sec. 2. Unless the context requires otherwise, the definitions in this section apply throughout sections 1 through 16 of this act.

              (1) "Anatomical gift" means a donation of all or part of a human body to take effect upon or after death.

              (2) "Decedent" means a deceased individual.

              (3) "Document of gift" means a card, a statement attached to or imprinted on a motor vehicle operator's license, a will, or other writing used to make an anatomical gift.

              (5) "Enucleator" means an individual who is qualified to remove or process eyes or parts of eyes.

              (6) "Hospital" means a facility licensed under chapter 70.41 RCW, or as a hospital under the law of any state or a facility operated as a hospital by the United States government, a state, or a subdivision of a state.

              (7) "Part" means an organ, tissue, eye, bone, artery, blood, fluid, or other portion of a human body.

              (8) "Person" means an individual, corporation, business trust, estate, trust, partnership, joint venture, association, government, governmental subdivision or agency, or any other legal or commercial entity.

              (9) "Physician" or "surgeon" means an individual licensed or otherwise authorized to practice medicine and surgery or osteopathy and surgery under chapters 18.71 and 18.57 RCW.

              (10) "Procurement organization" means a person licensed, accredited, or approved under the laws of any state for procurement, distribution, or storage of human bodies or parts.

              (11) "State" means a state, territory, or possession of the United States, the District of Columbia, or the Commonwealth of Puerto Rico.

              (12) "Technician" means an individual who is qualified to remove or process a part.


              NEW SECTION. Sec. 3. (1) An individual who is at least eighteen years of age may (a) make an anatomical gift for any of the purposes stated in section 6(1) of this act, (b) limit an anatomical gift to one or more of those purposes, or (c) refuse to make an anatomical gift.

              (2) An anatomical gift may be made by a document of gift signed by the donor. If the donor cannot sign, the document of gift must be signed by another individual and by two witnesses, all of whom have signed at the direction and in the presence of the donor and of each other and state that it has been so signed.

              (3) If a document of gift is attached to or imprinted on a donor's motor vehicle operator's license, the document of gift must comply with subsection (2) of this section. Revocation, suspension, expiration, or cancellation of the license does not invalidate the anatomical gift.

              (4) The donee or other person authorized to accept the anatomical gift may employ or authorize a physician, surgeon, technician, or enucleator to carry out the appropriate procedures.

              (5) An anatomical gift by will takes effect upon death of the testator, whether or not the will is probated. If, after death, the will is declared invalid for testamentary purposes, the validity of the anatomical gift is unaffected.

              (6) A donor may amend or revoke an anatomical gift, not made by will, by:

              (a) A signed statement;

              (b) An oral statement made in the presence of two individuals;

              (c) Any form of communication during a terminal illness or injury; or

              (d) The delivery of a signed statement to a specified donee to whom a document of gift had been delivered.

              (7) The donor of an anatomical gift made by will may amend or revoke the gift in the manner provided for amendment or revocation of wills, or as provided in subsection (6) of this section.

              (8) An anatomical gift that is not revoked by the donor before death is irrevocable and does not require the consent or concurrence of a person after the donor's death.

              (9) An individual may refuse to make an anatomical gift of the individual's body or part by (a) a writing signed in the same manner as a document of gift, (b) a statement attached to or imprinted on a donor's motor vehicle operator's license, or (c) another writing used to identify the individual as refusing to make an anatomical gift. During a terminal illness or injury, the refusal may be an oral statement or other form of communication.

              (10) In the absence of contrary indications by the donor, an anatomical gift of a part is neither a refusal to give other parts nor a limitation on an anatomical gift under section 4 of this act.

              (11) In the absence of contrary indications by the donor, a revocation or amendment of an anatomical gift is not a refusal to make another anatomical gift. If the donor intends a revocation to be a refusal to make an anatomical gift, the donor shall make the refusal pursuant to subsection (9) of this section.


              NEW SECTION. Sec. 4. (1) A member of the following classes of persons, in the order of priority listed, absent contrary instructions by the decedent, may make an anatomical gift of all or a part of the decedent's body for an authorized purpose, unless the decedent, at the time of death, had made an unrevoked refusal to make that anatomical gift: 

    (a) The appointed guardian of the person of the decedent at the time of death;

              (b) The individual, if any, to whom the decedent had given a durable power of attorney that encompassed the authority to make health care decisions;

              (c) The spouse of the decedent;

              (e) Either parent of the decedent;

              (g) A grandparent of the decedent.

              (2) An anatomical gift may not be made by a person listed in subsection (1) of this section if:

              (a) A person in a prior class is available at the time of death to make an anatomical gift;

              (b) The person proposing to make an anatomical gift knows of a refusal or contrary indications by the decedent; or

              (c) The person proposing to make an anatomical gift knows of an objection to making an anatomical gift by a member of the person's class or a prior class.

              (3) An anatomical gift by a person authorized under subsection (1) of this section must be made by (a) a document of gift signed by the person or (b) the person's telegraphic, recorded telephonic, or other recorded message, or other form of communication from the person that is contemporaneously reduced to writing and signed by the recipient of the communication.

              (4) An anatomical gift by a person authorized under subsection (1) of this section may be revoked by a member of the same or a prior class if, before procedures have begun for the removal of a part from the body of the decedent, the physician, surgeon, technician, or enucleator removing the part knows of the revocation.

              (5) A failure to make an anatomical gift under subsection (1) of this section is not an objection to the making of an anatomical gift.


              NEW SECTION. Sec. 5. (1) On or before admission to a hospital, or as soon as possible thereafter, a person designated by the hospital shall ask each patient who is at least eighteen years of age: "Are you an organ or tissue donor?" If the answer is affirmative the person shall request a copy of the document of gift. If the answer is negative or there is no answer, the person designated shall provide the patient information about the right to make a gift and shall ask the patient if he or she wishes to become an anatomical parts donor. If the answer is affirmative, the person designated shall provide a document of gift to the patient. The answer to the questions, an available copy of any document of gift or refusal to make an anatomical gift, and any other relevant information shall be placed in the patient's medical record.

              (2) If, at or near the time of death of a patient, there is no medical record that the patient has made or refused to make an anatomical gift, the hospital administrator or a representative designated by the administrator shall discuss the option to make or refuse to make an anatomical gift and request the making of an anatomical gift under section 4(1) of this act. The request shall be made with reasonable discretion and sensitivity to the circumstances of the family. A request is not required if the gift is not suitable, based upon accepted medical standards, for a purpose specified in section 6 of this act. An entry shall be made in the medical record of the patient, stating the name and affiliation of the individual making the request, and of the name, response, and relationship to the patient of the person to whom the request was made. The secretary of the department of health shall adopt rules to implement this subsection.

              (3) The following persons shall make a reasonable search of the individual and his or her personal effects for a document of gift or other information identifying the bearer as a donor or as an individual who has refused to make an anatomical gift:

              (a) The agency assuming jurisdiction over the decedent, such as the coroner or medical examiner; or

              (b) A hospital, upon the admission of an individual at or near the time of death, if there is not immediately available another source of that information.

              (4) If a document of gift or evidence of refusal to make an anatomical gift is located by the search required by subsection (3)(a) of this section, and the individual or body to whom it relates is taken to a hospital, the hospital shall be notified of the contents and the document or other evidence shall be sent to the hospital.

              (5) If, at or near the time of death of a patient, a hospital knows that an anatomical gift has been made under section 4(1) of this act, or that a patient or an individual identified as in transit to the hospital is a donor, the hospital shall notify the donee if one is named and known to the hospital; if not, it shall notify an appropriate procurement organization. The hospital shall cooperate in the procurement of the anatomical gift or release and removal of a part.

              (6) A person who fails to discharge the duties imposed by this section is not subject to criminal or civil liability.

              (7) Hospitals shall develop policies and procedures to implement this section.


              NEW SECTION. Sec. 6. (1) The following persons may become donees of anatomical gifts for the purposes stated:

              (a) A hospital, physician, surgeon, or procurement organization for transplantation, therapy, medical or dental education, research, or advancement of medical or dental science;

              (b) An accredited medical or dental school, college, or university for education, research, or advancement of medical or dental science; or

              (c) A designated individual for transplantation or therapy needed by that individual.

              (2) An anatomical gift may be made to a designated donee or without designating a donee. If a donee is not designated or if the donee is not available or rejects the anatomical gift, the anatomical gift may be accepted by any hospital.

              (3) If the donee knows of the decedent's refusal or contrary indications to make an anatomical gift or that an anatomical gift made by a member of a class having priority to act is opposed by a member of the same class or a prior class under section 4(1) of this act, the donee may not accept the anatomical gift.


              NEW SECTION. Sec. 7. (1) Delivery of a document of gift during the donor's lifetime is not required for the validity of an anatomical gift.

              (2) If an anatomical gift is made to a designated donee, the document of gift, or a copy, may be delivered to the donee to expedite the appropriate procedures after death. The document of gift, or a copy, may be deposited in a hospital, procurement organization, or registry office that accepts it for safekeeping or for facilitation of procedures after death. On request of an interested person, upon or after the donor's death, the person in possession shall allow the interested person to examine or copy the document of gift.


              NEW SECTION. Sec. 8. (1) Rights of a donee created by an anatomical gift are superior to rights of others except when under the jurisdiction of the coroner or medical examiner. A donee may accept or reject an anatomical gift. If a donee accepts an anatomical gift of an entire body, the donee, subject to the terms of the gift, may allow embalming and use of the body in funeral services. If the gift is of a part of a body, the donee, upon the death of the donor and before embalming, shall cause the part to be removed without unnecessary mutilation. After removal of the part, custody of the remainder of the body vests in the person under obligation to dispose of the body.

              (2) The time of death must be determined by a physician or surgeon who attends the donor at death or, if none, the physician or surgeon who certifies the death. Neither the physician or surgeon who attends the donor at death nor the physician or surgeon who determines the time of death may participate in the procedures for removing or transplanting a part.

              (3) If there has been an anatomical gift, a technician may remove any donated parts and an enucleator may remove any donated eyes or parts of eyes, after determination of death by a physician or surgeon.


              NEW SECTION. Sec. 9. Each hospital in this state, after consultation with other hospitals and procurement organizations, shall establish agreements or affiliations for coordination of procurement and use of human bodies and parts.


              NEW SECTION. Sec. 10. (1) A person may not knowingly, for valuable consideration, purchase or sell a part for transplantation or therapy, if removal of the part is intended to occur after the death of the decedent.

              (2) Valuable consideration does not include reasonable payment for the removal, processing, disposal, preservation, quality control, storage, transportation, or implantation of a part.

              (3) A person who violates this section is guilty of a felony and upon conviction is subject to a fine not exceeding fifty thousand dollars or imprisonment not exceeding five years, or both.


              NEW SECTION. Sec. 11. (1) An anatomical gift authorizes reasonable examination necessary to assure medical acceptability of the gift for the purposes intended.

              (2) The provisions of sections 1 through 16 of this act are subject to the laws of this state governing the jurisdiction of the coroner or medical examiner.

              (3) A hospital, physician, surgeon, coroner, medical examiner, local public health officer, enucleator, technician, or other person, who acts in accordance with sections 1 through 16 of this act or with the applicable anatomical gift law of another state or a foreign country or attempts in good faith to do so, is not liable for that act in a civil action or criminal proceeding.

              (4) An individual who makes an anatomical gift under section 3 or 4 of this act and the individual's estate are not liable for injury or damage that may result from the making or the use of the anatomical gift.


              NEW SECTION. Sec. 12. Sections 1 through 16 of this act apply to a document of gift, revocation, or refusal to make an anatomical gift signed by the donor or a person authorized to make or object to making an anatomical gift before, on, or after the effective date of this section.


              NEW SECTION. Sec. 13. This act shall be applied and construed to effectuate its general purpose to make uniform the law with respect to the subject of this act among states enacting it.


              NEW SECTION. Sec. 14. If any provision of this act or its application to any person or circumstance is held invalid, the remainder of the act or the application of the provision to other persons or circumstances is not affected.


              NEW SECTION. Sec. 15. In any case where a patient is in need of corneal tissue for a transplantation, corneal tissue may be provided by eye banks licensed by the secretary of health under rules promulgated by the department of health.


              NEW SECTION. Sec. 16. Sections 1 through 15 of this act may be cited as the "uniform anatomical gift act."


              NEW SECTION. Sec. 17. Sections 1 through 16 of this act are each added to chapter 68.50 RCW.


              Sec. 18. RCW 46.20.113 and 1987 c 331 s 81 are each amended to read as follows:

              The department of licensing shall provide a statement whereby the licensee may certify ((in the presence of two witnesses)) his or her willingness to make an anatomical gift under ((RCW 68.50.370)) section 3 of this act, as now or hereafter amended. The department shall provide the statement in at least one of the following ways:

              (1) On each driver's license; or

              (2) With each driver's license; or

              (3) With each in-person driver's license application.


              Sec. 19. RCW 68.50.106 and 1987 c 331 s 59 are each amended to read as follows:

              In any case in which an autopsy or post mortem is performed, the coroner or medical examiner, upon his or her own authority or upon the request of the prosecuting attorney or other law enforcement agency having jurisdiction, may make or cause to be made an analysis of the stomach contents, blood, or organs, or tissues of a deceased person and secure professional opinions thereon and retain or dispose of any specimens or organs of the deceased which in his or her discretion are desirable or needful for anatomic, bacteriological, chemical, or toxicological examination or upon lawful request are needed or desired for evidence to be presented in court. ((When the autopsy or post mortem requires examination in the region of the pituitary gland, that gland may be removed and utilized for any desirable or needful purpose: PROVIDED, That a reasonable effort to obtain consent as required under RCW 68.50.350 shall be made if that organ is to be so utilized.))

With the approval of the designated next of kin or other individual, as set forth in ((RCW 68.50.350)) section 4 of this act, the hospital shall then notify an established ((eye bank, tissue bank, or organ procurement agency)) procurement organization including those organ procurement agencies associated with a national organ procurement transportation network or other eligible donee, as specified in ((RCW 68.50.360)) section 6 of this act, and cooperate in the procurement of the anatomical gift or gifts. The procedures shall encourage reasonable discretion and sensitivity to the family circumstances in all discussions regarding donations of ((tissue or organs)) parts. The procedures may take into account the deceased individual's religious beliefs or obvious nonsuitability for ((organ and tissue)) an anatomical parts donation. Laws pertaining to the jurisdiction of the coroner shall be complied with in all cases of reportable deaths pursuant to RCW 68.50.010.


              NEW SECTION. Sec. 21. The following acts or parts of acts are each repealed:

The legislature finds that there is an expressed need for cities and counties to uniformly develop and coordinate jail industries technical information and program and public safety standards state-wide. It further finds that meaningful jail work industries programs that are linked to formal education and adult literacy training can significantly reduce recidivism, the rising costs of corrections, and criminal activities. It is the purpose and intent of the legislature, through this chapter, to establish a state-wide jail industries program designed to promote inmate rehabilitation through meaningful work experience and reduce the costs of incarceration. The legislature recognizes that inmates should have the responsibility for contributing to the cost of their crime through the wages earned while working in jail industries programs and that such income shall be used to offset the costs of implementing and maintaining local jail industries programs and the costs of incarceration.

In the event a conflict arises between the local business community or labor organizations concerning new jail industries programs, products, services, or wages, the city or county must use the arbitration process established pursuant to section 6 of this act.

              NEW SECTION. Sec. 11. When an offender is employed in a jail industries program for which pay is allowed, deductions may be made from these earnings for court-ordered legal financial obligations as directed by the court in reasonable amounts that do not unduly discourage the incentive to work. These deductions shall be disbursed as directed in RCW 9.94A.145.

              In addition, inmates working in jail industries programs shall contribute toward costs to develop, implement, and operate jail industries programs. This amount shall be a reasonable amount that does not unduly discourage the incentive to work. The amount so deducted shall be deposited in the jail industries special revenue fund.

              Upon request of the offender, family support may also be deducted and disbursed to a designated family member.

SENATE AMENDMENTS TO HOUSE BILL


April 12, 1993


Mr. Speaker:


              The Senate has passed SUBSTITUTE HOUSE BILL NO. 1051, with the following amendments:


              Strike everything after the enacting clause and insert the following:

              "NEW SECTION. Sec. 1. The legislature finds that a public agency incurs expenses in an emergency response. It is the intent of the legislature to allow a public agency to recover the expenses of an emergency response to an incident involving persons who operate a motor vehicle, boat or vessel, or a civil aircraft while under the influence of an alcoholic beverage or a drug, or the combined influence of an alcoholic beverage and a drug. It is the intent of the legislature that the recovery of expenses of an emergency response under this act shall supplement and shall not supplant other provisions of law relating to the recovery of those expenses.


              NEW SECTION. Sec. 2. A new section is added to chapter 38.52 RCW to read as follows:

              A person whose intoxication causes an incident resulting in an appropriate emergency response, and who, in connection with the incident, has been found guilty of or has had their prosecution deferred for (1) driving while under the influence of intoxicating liquor or any drug, RCW 46.61.502; (2) operating an aircraft under the influence of intoxicants or drugs, RCW 47.68.220; (3) use of a vessel while under the influence of alcohol or drugs, RCW 88.12.100; (4) vehicular homicide while under the influence of intoxicating liquor or any drug, RCW 46.61.520(1)(a); or (5) vehicular assault while under the influence of intoxicating liquor or any drug, RCW 46.61.522(1)(b), is liable for the expense of an emergency response by a public agency to the incident.

              The expense of an emergency response is a charge against the person liable for expenses under this section. The charge constitutes a debt of that person and is collectible by the public agency incurring those costs in the same manner as in the case of an obligation under a contract, expressed or implied.

              In no event shall a person's liability under this section for the expense of an emergency response exceed one thousand dollars for a particular incident.

              If more than one public agency makes a claim for payment from an individual for an emergency response to a single incident under the provisions of this section, and the sum of the claims exceeds the amount recovered, the division of the amount recovered shall be determined by an interlocal agreement consistent with the requirements of chapter 39.34 RCW.


              Sec. 3. RCW 9.95.210 and 1992 c 86 s 1 are each amended to read as follows:

              In granting probation, the court may suspend the imposition or the execution of the sentence and may direct that the suspension may continue upon such conditions and for such time as it shall designate, not exceeding the maximum term of sentence or two years, whichever is longer.

               In the order granting probation and as a condition thereof, the court may in its discretion imprison the defendant in the county jail for a period not exceeding one year and may fine the defendant any sum not exceeding the statutory limit for the offense committed, and court costs. As a condition of probation, the court shall require the payment of the penalty assessment required by RCW 7.68.035. The court may also require the defendant to make such monetary payments, on such terms as it deems appropriate under the circumstances, as are necessary (1) to comply with any order of the court for the payment of family support, (2) to make restitution to any person or persons who may have suffered loss or damage by reason of the commission of the crime in question or when the offender pleads guilty to a lesser offense or fewer offenses and agrees with the prosecutor's recommendation that the offender be required to pay restitution to a victim of an offense or offenses which are not prosecuted pursuant to a plea agreement, (3) to pay such fine as may be imposed and court costs, including reimbursement of the state for costs of extradition if return to this state by extradition was required, (4) following consideration of the financial condition of the person subject to possible electronic monitoring, to pay for the costs of electronic monitoring if that monitoring was required by the court as a condition of release from custody or as a condition of probation, ((and)) (5) to contribute to a county or interlocal drug fund, and (6) to make restitution to a public agency for the costs of an emergency response under section 2 of this act, and may require bonds for the faithful observance of any and all conditions imposed in the probation. The court shall order the probationer to report to the secretary of corrections or such officer as the secretary may designate and as a condition of the probation to follow implicitly the instructions of the secretary. If the probationer has been ordered to make restitution, the officer supervising the probationer shall make a reasonable effort to ascertain whether restitution has been made. If restitution has not been made as ordered, the officer shall inform the prosecutor of that violation of the terms of probation not less than three months prior to the termination of the probation period. The secretary of corrections will promulgate rules and regulations for the conduct of the person during the term of probation. For defendants found guilty in district court, like functions as the secretary performs in regard to probation may be performed by probation officers employed for that purpose by the county legislative authority of the county wherein the court is located.


              Sec. 4. RCW 9.94A.030 and 1992 c 145 s 6 and 1992 c 75 s 1 are each reenacted and amended to read as follows:

              (5) "Community placement" means that period during which the offender is subject to the conditions of community custody and/or postrelease supervision, which begins either upon completion of the term of confinement (postrelease supervision) or at such time as the offender is transferred to community custody in lieu of earned early release.

              (6) "Community service" means compulsory service, without compensation, performed for the benefit of the community by the offender.

              (7) "Community supervision" means a period of time during which a convicted offender is subject to crime-related prohibitions and other sentence conditions imposed by a court pursuant to this chapter or RCW 46.61.524. For first-time offenders, the supervision may include crime-related prohibitions and other conditions imposed pursuant to RCW 9.94A.120(5). For purposes of the interstate compact for out-of-state supervision of parolees and probationers, RCW 9.95.270, community supervision is the functional equivalent of probation and should be considered the same as probation by other states.

              (8) "Confinement" means total or partial confinement as defined in this section.

Upon conviction for vehicular assault while under the influence of intoxicating liquor or any drug, RCW 46.61.522(1)(b), or vehicular homicide while under the influence of intoxicating liquor or any drug, RCW 46.61.520(1)(a), legal financial obligations may also include payment to a public agency of the expense of an emergency response to the incident resulting in the conviction, subject to the provisions in section 2 of this act.

              (11) "Crime-related prohibition" means an order of a court prohibiting conduct that directly relates to the circumstances of the crime for which the offender has been convicted, and shall not be construed to mean orders directing an offender affirmatively to participate in rehabilitative programs or to otherwise perform affirmative conduct.

              (12)(a) "Criminal history" means the list of a defendant's prior convictions, whether in this state, in federal court, or elsewhere. The history shall include, where known, for each conviction (i) whether the defendant has been placed on probation and the length and terms thereof; and (ii) whether the defendant has been incarcerated and the length of incarceration.

              (b) "Criminal history" shall always include juvenile convictions for sex offenses and shall also include a defendant's other prior convictions in juvenile court if: (i) The conviction was for an offense which is a felony or a serious traffic offense and is criminal history as defined in RCW 13.40.020(6)(a); (ii) the defendant was fifteen years of age or older at the time the offense was committed; and (iii) with respect to prior juvenile class B and C felonies or serious traffic offenses, the defendant was less than twenty-three years of age at the time the offense for which he or she is being sentenced was committed.

The fact that an offender through "earned early release" can reduce the actual period of confinement shall not affect the classification of the sentence as a determinate sentence.

              (15) "Disposable earnings" means that part of the earnings of an individual remaining after the deduction from those earnings of any amount required by law to be withheld. For the purposes of this definition, "earnings" means compensation paid or payable for personal services, whether denominated as wages, salary, commission, bonuses, or otherwise, and, notwithstanding any other provision of law making the payments exempt from garnishment, attachment, or other process to satisfy a court-ordered legal financial obligation, specifically includes periodic payments pursuant to pension or retirement programs, or insurance policies of any type, but does not include payments made under Title 50 RCW, except as provided in RCW 50.40.020 and 50.40.050, or Title 74 RCW.

SENATE AMENDMENTS TO HOUSE BILL


April 6, 1993


Mr. Speaker:


              The Senate has passed HOUSE BILL NO. 1068, with the following amendments:


              Strike everything after the enacting clause and insert the following:

              "NEW SECTION. Sec. 1. Unless the context clearly requires otherwise, the definitions in this section apply throughout this chapter.

              (1) "Beneficiary form" means a registration of a security that indicates the present owner of the security and the intention of the owner regarding the person who will become the owner of the security upon the death of the owner, referred to as a "beneficiary."

              (2) "Devisee" means any person designated in a will to receive a disposition of real or personal property.

              (3) "Heirs" means those persons, including the surviving spouse, who are entitled under the statutes of intestate succession to the property of a decedent.

              (4) "Person" means an individual, a corporation, an organization, or other legal entity.

              (5) "Personal representative" includes executor, administrator, successor personal representative, special administrator, and persons who perform substantially the same function under the law governing their status.

              (6) "Property" includes both real and personal property or any interest therein and means anything that may be the subject of ownership.

              (7) "Register," including its derivatives, means to issue a certificate showing the ownership of a certificated security or, in the case of an uncertificated security, to initiate or transfer an account showing ownership of securities.

              (8) "Registering entity" means a person who originates or transfers a security title by registration, and includes a broker maintaining security accounts for customers and a transfer agent or other person acting for or as an issuer of securities.

              (9) "Security" means a share, participation, or other interest in property, in a business, or in an obligation of an enterprise or other issuer, and includes a certificated security, an uncertificated security, and a security account.

              (10) "Security account" means (a) a reinvestment account associated with a security; a securities account with a broker; a cash balance in a brokerage account; or cash, interest, earnings, or dividends earned or declared on a security in an account, a reinvestment account, or a brokerage account, whether or not credited to the account before the owner's death; or (b) a cash balance or other property held for or due to the owner of a security as a replacement for or product of an account security, whether or not credited to the account before the owner's death.

              (11) "State" includes any state of the United States, the District of Columbia, the Commonwealth of Puerto Rico, and any territory or possession subject to the legislative authority of the United States.


              NEW SECTION. Sec. 2. Only individuals whose registration of a security shows sole ownership by one individual or multiple ownership by two or more with right of survivorship, rather than as tenants in common, may obtain registration in beneficiary form. Multiple owners of a security registered in beneficiary form shall hold the security as joint tenants with right of survivorship either as separate property or as community property, and not as tenants in common.


              NEW SECTION. Sec. 3. A registering entity may register a security in beneficiary form if the form is authorized by this chapter or a substantially identical statute of another state if the state is: (1) The state of organization of the issuer or registering entity, (2) the location of the registering entity's principal office, (3) the location of the office of its transfer agent or its office making the registration, or (4) the location of the owner's listed address at the time of registration. A registration governed by the law of a jurisdiction in which this or substantially identical legislation is not in force or was not in force when a registration in beneficiary form was made is nevertheless presumed to be valid and authorized as a matter of contract law.


              NEW SECTION. Sec. 4. A security, whether evidenced by certificate or account, is registered in beneficiary form when the registration includes a designation of a beneficiary to take the ownership at the death of a sole owner or at the death of the last to die of multiple owners.


              NEW SECTION. Sec. 5. Registration in beneficiary form may be shown by the words "transfer on death" or the abbreviation "TOD," or by the words "pay on death" or the abbreviation "POD," after the name of the registered owner or owners and before the name of a beneficiary.


              NEW SECTION. Sec. 6. The designation of a TOD or POD beneficiary on a registration in beneficiary form has no effect on ownership of the security until the owner's death, or on community property rights and obligations of owners. A registration of a security in beneficiary form may be canceled or changed at any time by the sole owner or all then surviving owners, without the consent of the beneficiary.


              NEW SECTION. Sec. 7. On death of a sole owner or the last to die of all multiple owners, ownership of securities registered in beneficiary form passes to the beneficiary or beneficiaries who survive all owners. On proof of death of all owners and compliance with any applicable requirements of the registering entity, a security registered in beneficiary form may be reregistered in the name of the beneficiary or beneficiaries who survived the death of all owners. Until division of the security after the death of all owners, multiple beneficiaries surviving the death of all owners hold their interests as tenants in common. If no beneficiary survives the death of all owners, the security belongs to the estate of the deceased sole owner or the estate of the last to die of all multiple owners.


              NEW SECTION. Sec. 8. (1) A registering entity is not required to offer or to accept a request for security registration in beneficiary form. If a registration in beneficiary form is offered by a registering entity, the owner requesting registration in beneficiary form assents to the protections given to the registering entity by this chapter.

              (2) By accepting a request for registration of a security in beneficiary form, the registering entity agrees that the registration will be implemented on death of the deceased owner as provided in this chapter.

              (3) A registering entity is discharged from all claims to a security by the estate, creditors, heirs, or devices of a deceased owner if it registers a transfer of a security in accordance with section 7 of this act and does so in good faith reliance (a) on the registration, (b) on this chapter, and (c) on information provided to it by affidavit of the personal representative of the deceased owner, or by the surviving beneficiary or by the surviving beneficiary's representatives, or other information available to the registering entity. The protections of this chapter do not extend to a reregistration or payment made after a registering entity has received written notice from any claimant to any interest in the security objecting to implementation of a registration in beneficiary form. No other notice or other information available to the registering entity affects its right to protection under this chapter.

              (4) The protection provided by this chapter to a registering entity does not affect the rights of beneficiaries in disputes between themselves and other claimants to ownership of the security transferred or its value or proceeds.


              NEW SECTION. Sec. 9. (1) A transfer on death resulting from a registration in beneficiary form is effective by reason of the contract regarding the registration between the owner and the registering entity and this chapter and is not testamentary.

              (2) This chapter does not limit the rights of creditors of security owners against beneficiaries and other transferees under other laws of this state.

This approval shall not be unreasonably withheld. Except as provided in RCW 75.20.1001 and 75.20.1002, the department ((of fisheries or the department of wildlife)) shall grant or deny approval within forty-five calendar days of the receipt of a complete application and notice of compliance with any applicable requirements of the state environmental policy act, made in the manner prescribed in this section. The applicant may document receipt of application by filing in person or by registered mail. A complete application for approval shall contain general plans for the overall project, complete plans and specifications of the proposed construction or work within the mean higher high water line in salt water or within the ordinary high water line in fresh water, and complete plans and specifications for the proper protection of fish life.

Immediately upon determination that the forty-five day period is suspended, the department ((of fisheries or the department of wildlife)) shall notify the applicant in writing of the reasons for the delay. Approval is valid for a period of up to five years from date of issuance. The permittee must demonstrate substantial progress on construction of that portion of the project relating to the approval within two years of the date of issuance. If ((either)) the department ((of fisheries or the department of wildlife)) denies approval, ((that)) the department shall provide the applicant, in writing, a statement of the specific reasons why and how the proposed project would adversely affect fish life. Protection of fish life shall be the only ground upon which approval may be denied or conditioned.

              The phrase "to construct any form of hydraulic project or perform other work" shall not include the act of driving across an established ford. Driving across streams or on wetted stream beds at areas other than established fords requires approval. Work within the ordinary high water line of state waters to construct or repair a ford or crossing requires approval.

              ((For each application, the department of fisheries and the department of wildlife shall mutually agree on whether the department of fisheries or the department of wildlife shall administer the provisions of this section, in order to avoid duplication of effort. The department designated to act shall cooperate with the other department in order to protect all species of fish life found at the project site. If the department of fisheries or the department of wildlife receives an application concerning a site not in its jurisdiction, it shall transmit the application to the other department within three days and notify the applicant.))

              Sec. 32. RCW 75.20.103 and 1991 c 322 s 31 are each amended to read as follows:

              In the event that any person or government agency desires to construct any form of hydraulic project or other work that diverts water for agricultural irrigation or stock watering purposes, or when such hydraulic project or other work is associated with streambank stabilization to protect farm and agricultural land as defined in RCW 84.34.020, and when such diversion or streambank stabilization will use, divert, obstruct, or change the natural flow or bed of any river or stream or will utilize any waters of the state or materials from the stream beds, the person or government agency shall, before commencing construction or work thereon and to ensure the proper protection of fish life, secure a written approval from the department ((of fisheries or the department of wildlife)) as to the adequacy of the means proposed for the protection of fish life. This approval shall not be unreasonably withheld. Except as provided in RCW 75.20.1001 and 75.20.1002, the department ((of fisheries or the department of wildlife)) shall grant or deny the approval within forty-five calendar days of the receipt of a complete application and notice of compliance with any applicable requirements of the state environmental policy act, made in the manner prescribed in this section. The applicant may document receipt of application by filing in person or by registered mail. A complete application for an approval shall contain general plans for the overall project, complete plans and specifications of the proposed construction or work within ordinary high water line, and complete plans and specifications for the proper protection of fish life. The forty-five day requirement shall be suspended if (1) after ten working days of receipt of the application, the applicant remains unavailable or unable to arrange for a timely field evaluation of the proposed project; (2) the site is physically inaccessible for inspection; or (3) the applicant requests delay.

              Immediately upon determination that the forty-five day period is suspended, the department ((of fisheries or the department of wildlife)) shall notify the applicant in writing of the reasons for the delay.

              An approval shall remain in effect without need for periodic renewal for projects that divert water for agricultural irrigation or stock watering purposes and that involve seasonal construction or other work.

The permittee must notify the appropriate agency before commencing the construction or other work within the area covered by the approval.

              The permittee must demonstrate substantial progress on construction of that portion of the project relating to the approval within two years of the date of issuance. If ((either)) the department ((of fisheries or the department of wildlife)) denies approval, ((that)) the department shall provide the applicant, in writing, a statement of the specific reasons why and how the proposed project would adversely affect fish life. Protection of fish life shall be the only ground upon which approval may be denied or conditioned. Issuance, denial, conditioning, or modification shall be appealable to the hydraulic appeals board established in RCW 43.21B.005 within thirty days of the notice of decision. The burden shall be upon the department ((of fisheries or the department of wildlife)) to show that the denial or conditioning of an approval is solely aimed at the protection of fish life.

              The department ((granting approval)) may, after consultation with the permittee, modify an approval due to changed conditions. The modifications shall become effective unless appealed to the hydraulic appeals board within thirty days from the notice of the proposed modification. The burden is on the department ((issuing the approval)) to show that changed conditions warrant the modification in order to protect fish life.

              A permittee may request modification of an approval due to changed conditions. The request shall be processed within forty-five calendar days of receipt of the written request. A decision by the department ((that issued the approval)) may be appealed to the hydraulic appeals board within thirty days of the notice of the decision. The burden is on the permittee to show that changed conditions warrant the requested modification and that such modification will not impair fish life.

              If any person or government agency commences construction on any hydraulic works or projects subject to this section without first having obtained written approval of the department ((of fisheries or the department of wildlife)) as to the adequacy of the means proposed for the protection of fish life, or if any person or government agency fails to follow or carry out any of the requirements or conditions as are made a part of such approval, the person or director of the agency is guilty of a gross misdemeanor. If any such person or government agency is convicted of violating any of the provisions of this section and continues construction on any such works or projects without fully complying with the provisions hereof, such works or projects are hereby declared a public nuisance and shall be subject to abatement as such.

              ((For each application, the department of fisheries and the department of wildlife shall mutually agree on whether the department of fisheries or the department of wildlife shall administer the provisions of this section, in order to avoid duplication of effort. The department designated to act shall cooperate with the other department in order to protect all species of fish life found at the project site. If the department of fisheries or the department of wildlife receives an application concerning a site not in its jurisdiction, it shall transmit the application to the other department within three days and notify the applicant.))

              Currently, many of the salmon stocks of Washington state are critically reduced from their sustainable level. The best interests of all fishing groups and the citizens as a whole are served by a stable and productive salmon resource. Immediate action is needed to reverse the severe decline of the resource and to insure its very survival. The legislature finds a state of emergency exists and that immediate action is required to restore its fishery.

              Disagreement and strife have dominated the salmon fisheries for many years. Conflicts among the various fishing interests have only served to erode the resource. It is time for the state of Washington to make a major commitment to increasing productivity of the resource and to move forward with an effective rehabilitation and enhancement program. The department ((of fisheries)) is directed to dedicate its efforts to make increasing the productivity of the salmon resource a first priority and to seek resolution to the many conflicts that involve the resource.

              Success of the enhancement program can only occur if projects efficiently produce salmon or restore habitat. The expectation of the program is to optimize the efficient use of funding on projects that will increase artificially and naturally produced salmon, restore and improve habitat, or identify ways to increase the survival of salmon. The full utilization of state resources and cooperative efforts with interested groups are essential to the success of the program.

              (6) The existence or performance of an agreement authorized by this section shall not be a ground for imposing personal liability on any shareholder for the acts or debts of the corporation even if the agreement or its performance treats the corporation as if it were a partnership or results in failure to observe the corporate formalities otherwise applicable to the matters governed by the agreement.

              (7) Incorporators or subscribers for shares may act as shareholders with respect to an agreement authorized by this section if no shares have been issued when the agreement is made.

SENATE AMENDMENTS TO HOUSE BILL


April 12, 1993


Mr. Speaker:

              The Senate has passed SUBSTITUTE HOUSE BILL NO. 1077, with the following amendment:


              Strike everything after the enacting clause and insert the following:

              "NEW SECTION. Sec. 1. (1) This section applies to all nonprobate assets, wherever situated, held at the time of entry by a superior court of this state of a decree of dissolution of marriage or a declaration of invalidity.

              (2)(a) If a marriage is dissolved or invalidated, a provision made prior to that event that relates to the payment or transfer at death of the decedent's interest in a nonprobate asset in favor of or granting an interest or power to the decedent's former spouse is revoked. A provision affected by this section must be interpreted, and the nonprobate asset affected passes, as if the former spouse failed to survive the decedent, having died at the time of entry of the decree of dissolution or declaration of invalidity.

              (b) This subsection does not apply if and to the extent that:

              (i) The instrument governing disposition of the nonprobate asset expressly provides otherwise;

              (ii) The decree of dissolution or declaration of invalidity requires that the decedent maintain a nonprobate asset for the benefit of a former spouse or children of the marriage, payable on the decedent's death either outright or in trust, and other nonprobate assets of the decedent fulfilling such a requirement for the benefit of the former spouse or children of the marriage do not exist at the decedent's death; or

              (iii) If not for this subsection, the decedent could not have effected the revocation by unilateral action because of the terms of the decree or declaration, or for any other reason, immediately after the entry of the decree of dissolution or declaration of invalidity.

              (3)(a) A payor or other third party in possession or control of a nonprobate asset at the time of the decedent's death is not liable for making a payment or transferring an interest in a nonprobate asset to a decedent's former spouse whose interest in the nonprobate asset is revoked under this section, or for taking another action in reliance on the validity of the instrument governing disposition of the nonprobate asset, before the payor or other third party has actual knowledge of the dissolution or other invalidation of marriage. A payor or other third party is liable for a payment or transfer made or other action taken after the payor or other third party has actual knowledge of a revocation under this section.

              (b) This section does not require a payor or other third party to pay or transfer a nonprobate asset to a beneficiary designated in a governing instrument affected by the dissolution or other invalidation of marriage, or to another person claiming an interest in the nonprobate asset, if the payor or third party has actual knowledge of the existence of a dispute between the former spouse and the beneficiaries or other persons concerning rights of ownership of the nonprobate asset as a result of the application of this section among the former spouse and the beneficiaries or among other persons, or if the payor or third party is otherwise uncertain as to who is entitled to the nonprobate asset under this section. In such a case, the payor or third party may, without liability, notify in writing all beneficiaries or other persons claiming an interest in the nonprobate asset of either the existence of the dispute or its uncertainty as to who is entitled to payment or transfer of the nonprobate asset. The payor or third party may also, without liability, refuse to pay or transfer a nonprobate asset in such a circumstance to a beneficiary or other person claiming an interest until the time that either:

              (i) All beneficiaries and other interested persons claiming an interest have consented in writing to the payment or transfer; or

              (ii) The payment or transfer is authorized or directed by a court of proper jurisdiction.

              (c) Notwithstanding subsections (1) and (2) of this section and (a) and (b) of this subsection, a payor or other third party having actual knowledge of the existence of a dispute between beneficiaries or other persons concerning rights to a nonprobate asset as a result of the application of this section may condition the payment or transfer of the nonprobate asset on execution, in a form and with security acceptable to the payor or other third party, of a bond in an amount that is double the fair market value of the nonprobate asset at the time of the decedent's death or the amount of an adverse claim, whichever is the lesser, or of a similar instrument to provide security to the payor or other third party, indemnifying the payor or other third party for any liability, loss, damage, costs, and expenses for and on account of payment or transfer of the nonprobate asset.

              (d) As used in this subsection, "actual knowledge" means, for a payor or other third party in possession or control of the nonprobate asset at or following the decedent's death, written notice to the payor or other third party, or to an officer of a payor or third party in the course of his or her employment, received after the decedent's death and within a time that is sufficient to afford the payor or third party a reasonable opportunity to act upon the knowledge. The notice must identify the nonprobate asset with reasonable specificity. The notice also must be sufficient to inform the payor or other third party of the revocation of the provisions in favor of the decedent's spouse by reason of the dissolution or invalidation of marriage, or to inform the payor or third party of a dispute concerning rights to a nonprobate asset as a result of the application of this section. Receipt of the notice for a period of more than thirty days is presumed to be received within a time that is sufficient to afford the payor or third party a reasonable opportunity to act upon the knowledge, but receipt of the notice for a period of less than five business days is presumed not to be a sufficient time for these purposes. These presumptions may be rebutted only by clear and convincing evidence to the contrary.

              (4)(a) A person who purchases a nonprobate asset from a former spouse or other person, for value and without actual knowledge, or who receives from a former spouse or other person payment or transfer of a nonprobate asset without actual knowledge and in partial or full satisfaction of a legally enforceable obligation, is neither obligated under this section to return the payment, property, or benefit nor is liable under this section for the amount of the payment or the value of the nonprobate asset. However, a former spouse or other person who, with actual knowledge, not for value, or not in satisfaction of a legally enforceable obligation, receives payment or transfer of a nonprobate asset to which that person is not entitled under this section is obligated to return the payment or nonprobate asset, or is personally liable for the amount of the payment or value of the nonprobate asset, to the person who is entitled to it under this section.

              (b) As used in this subsection, "actual knowledge" means, for a person described in (a) of this subsection who purchases or receives a nonprobate asset from a former spouse or other person, personal knowledge or possession of documents relating to the revocation upon dissolution or invalidation of marriage of provisions relating to the payment or transfer at the decedent's death of the nonprobate asset, received within a time after the decedent's death and before the purchase or receipt that is sufficient to afford the person purchasing or receiving the nonprobate asset reasonable opportunity to act upon the knowledge. Receipt of the personal knowledge or possession of the documents for a period of more than thirty days is presumed to be received within a time that is sufficient to afford the payor or third party a reasonable opportunity to act upon the knowledge, but receipt of the notice for a period of less than five business days is presumed not to be a sufficient time for these purposes. These presumptions may be rebutted only by clear and convincing evidence to the contrary.

              (5) As used in this section, "nonprobate asset" means those rights and interests of a person having beneficial ownership of an asset that pass on the person's death under only the following written instruments or arrangements other than the decedent's will:

              (a) A payable-on-death provision of a life insurance policy, employee benefit plan, annuity or similar contract, or individual retirement account;

              (b) A payable-on-death, trust, or joint with right of survivorship bank account;

              (c) A trust of which the person is a grantor and that becomes effective or irrevocable only upon the person's death; or

              (d) Transfer on death beneficiary designations of a transfer on death or pay on death security, if such designations are authorized under Washington law.


              NEW SECTION. Sec. 2. Section 1 of this act shall constitute a new chapter in Title 11 RCW.


              Sec. 3. RCW 41.26.510 and 1991 c 365 s 31 are each amended to read as follows:

              (1) At any time after forty days from the date of a decedent's death, any person who is indebted to or who has possession of any personal property belonging to the decedent or to the decedent and his or her surviving spouse as a community, which debt or personal property is an asset which is subject to probate, shall pay such indebtedness or deliver such personal property, or so much of either as is claimed, to a person claiming to be a successor of the decedent upon receipt of proof of death and of an affidavit made by said person which meets the requirements of subsection (2) of this section.

              (2) An affidavit which is to be made pursuant to this section shall state:

              (a) The claiming successor's name and address, and that the claiming successor is a "successor" as defined in RCW 11.62.005;

              (b) That the decedent was a resident of the state of Washington on the date of his death;

              (c) That the value of the decedent's entire estate subject to probate, not including the surviving spouse's community property interest in any assets which are subject to probate in the decedent's estate, wherever located, less liens and encumbrances, does not exceed ((the amount specified in RCW 6.13.030)) sixty thousand dollars;

              (d) That forty days have elapsed since the death of the decedent;

              (e) That no application or petition for the appointment of a personal representative is pending or has been granted in any jurisdiction;

              (f) That all debts of the decedent including funeral and burial expenses have been paid or provided for;

              (g) A description of the personal property and the portion thereof claimed, together with a statement that such personal property is subject to probate;

              (h) That the claiming successor has given written notice, either by personal service or by mail, identifying his or her claim, and describing the property claimed, to all other successors of the decedent, and that at least ten days have elapsed since the service or mailing of such notice; and

              (i) That the claiming successor is either personally entitled to full payment or delivery of the property claimed or is entitled to full payment or delivery thereof on the behalf and with the written authority of all other successors who have an interest therein.

              (3) A transfer agent of any security shall change the registered ownership of the security claimed from the decedent to the person claiming to be the successor with respect to such security upon the presentation of proof of death and of an affidavit made by such person which meets the requirements of subsection (2) of this section. Any governmental agency required to issue certificates of ownership or of license registration to personal property shall issue a new certificate of ownership or of license registration to a person claiming to be a successor of the decedent upon receipt of proof of death and of an affidavit made by such person which meets the requirements of subsection (2) of this section.

              (4) No release from any Washington state or local taxing authority may be required before any assets or debts are paid or delivered to a successor of a decedent as required under this section.


              NEW SECTION. Sec. 2. (1) An otherwise effective written instrument of transfer may not be deemed testamentary solely because of a provision for a nonprobate transfer at death in the instrument.

              (2) "Provision for a nonprobate transfer at death" as used in subsection (1) of this section includes, but is not limited to, a written provision that: 

              (a) Money or another benefit up to that time due to, controlled, or owned by a decedent before death must be paid after the decedent's death to a person whom the decedent designates either in the instrument or a separate writing, including a will, executed at any time;

              (b) Money or another benefit due or to become due under the instrument ceases to be payable in the event of the death of the promisee or the promisor before payment or demand; or

              (4) This section only eliminates a requirement that instruments of transfer comply with formalities for executing wills under chapter 11.12 RCW. This section does not make a written instrument effective as a contract, gift, conveyance, deed, or trust that would not otherwise be effective as such for reasons other than failure to comply with chapter 11.12 RCW.

              (5) This section does not limit the rights of a creditor under other laws of this state.


              NEW SECTION. Sec. 3. A provision in a lease of a safety deposit repository to the effect that two or more persons have access to the repository, or that purports to create a joint tenancy in the repository or in the contents of the repository, or that purports to vest ownership of the contents of the repository in the surviving lessee, is ineffective to create joint ownership of the contents of the repository or to transfer ownership at death of one of the lessees to the survivor. Ownership of the contents of the repository and devolution of title to those contents is determined according to rules of law without regard to the lease provisions.


              NEW SECTION. Sec. 4. RCW 11.02.090 and 1974 ex.s. c 117 s 54 are each repealed.


              NEW SECTION. Sec. 5. Sections 2 and 3 of this act are each added to chapter 11.02 RCW."         On page 1, line 2 of the title, after "death;" strike the remainder of the title and insert "amending RCW 11.62.010; adding new sections to chapter 11.02 RCW; and repealing RCW 11.02.090."

Conflicts in addresses are to be resolved by using the most recent record by date of last vote in a general election, date of driver's license or identicard address change or date of voter registration.

              (3) The department of information services shall provide counties that elect to receive a jury source list merged by department of information services with a list of names which are possible duplicates that cannot be resolved based on the identifying information required under subsection (2) of this section. If a possible duplication cannot subsequently be resolved satisfactorily through reasonable efforts by the county receiving the merged list, the possible duplicate name shall be stricken from the jury source list until the next annual jury source list is prepared.

Mr. Speaker:

              The Senate has passed ENGROSSED HOUSE BILL NO. 1115 with the following amendment:


              Strike everything after the enacting clause and insert the following:

              "Sec. 1. RCW 26.44.030 and 1991 c 111 s 1 are each amended to read as follows:

              (1) When any practitioner, professional school personnel, registered or licensed nurse, social service counselor, psychologist, pharmacist, licensed or certified child care providers or their employees, employee of the department, or juvenile probation officer has reasonable cause to believe that a child or adult dependent or developmentally disabled person, has suffered abuse or neglect, he or she shall report such incident, or cause a report to be made, to the proper law enforcement agency or to the department as provided in RCW 26.44.040. The report shall be made at the first opportunity, but in no case longer than forty-eight hours after there is reasonable cause to believe that the child or adult has suffered abuse or neglect. The report shall include the identity of the accused if known.

              (2) The reporting requirement of subsection (1) of this section does not apply to the discovery of abuse or neglect that occurred during childhood if it is discovered after the child has become an adult. However, if there is reasonable cause to believe other children, dependent adults, or developmentally disabled persons are or may be at risk of abuse or neglect by the accused, the reporting requirement of subsection (1) of this section shall apply.

              (3) Any other person who has reasonable cause to believe that a child or adult dependent or developmentally disabled person has suffered abuse or neglect may report such incident to the proper law enforcement agency or to the department of social and health services as provided in RCW 26.44.040.

              (4) The department, upon receiving a report of an incident of abuse or neglect pursuant to this chapter, involving a child or adult dependent or developmentally disabled person who has died or has had physical injury or injuries inflicted upon him or her other than by accidental means or who has been subjected to sexual abuse, shall report such incident to the proper law enforcement agency. In emergency cases, where the child, adult dependent, or developmentally disabled person's welfare is endangered, the department shall notify the proper law enforcement agency within twenty-four hours after a report is received by the department. In all other cases, the department shall notify the law enforcement agency within seventy-two hours after a report is received by the department. If the department makes an oral report, a written report shall also be made to the proper law enforcement agency within five days thereafter.

              (5) Any law enforcement agency receiving a report of an incident of abuse or neglect pursuant to this chapter, involving a child or adult dependent or developmentally disabled person who has died or has had physical injury or injuries inflicted upon him or her other than by accidental means, or who has been subjected to sexual abuse, shall report such incident in writing as provided in RCW 26.44.040 to the proper county prosecutor or city attorney for appropriate action whenever the law enforcement agency's investigation reveals that a crime may have been committed. The law enforcement agency shall also notify the department of all reports received and the law enforcement agency's disposition of them. In emergency cases, where the child, adult dependent, or developmentally disabled person's welfare is endangered, the law enforcement agency shall notify the department within twenty-four hours. In all other cases, the law enforcement agency shall notify the department within seventy-two hours after a report is received by the law enforcement agency.

              (6) Any county prosecutor or city attorney receiving a report under subsection (5) of this section shall notify the victim, any persons the victim requests, and the local office of the department, of the decision to charge or decline to charge a crime, within five days of making the decision.

              (7) The department may conduct ongoing case planning and consultation with those persons or agencies required to report under this section, with consultants designated by the department, and with designated representatives of Washington Indian tribes if the client information exchanged is pertinent to cases currently receiving child protective services or department case services for the developmentally disabled. Upon request, the department shall conduct such planning and consultation with those persons required to report under this section if the department determines it is in the best interests of the child or developmentally disabled person. Information considered privileged by statute and not directly related to reports required by this section shall not be divulged without a valid written waiver of the privilege.

              (8) Any case referred to the department by a physician licensed under chapter 18.57 or 18.71 RCW on the basis of an expert medical opinion that child abuse, neglect, or sexual assault has occurred and that the child's safety will be seriously endangered if returned home, the department shall file a dependency petition unless a second licensed physician of the parents' choice believes that such expert medical opinion is incorrect. If the parents fail to designate a second physician, the department may make the selection. If a physician finds that a child has suffered abuse or neglect but that such abuse or neglect does not constitute imminent danger to the child's health or safety, and the department agrees with the physician's assessment, the child may be left in the parents' home while the department proceeds with reasonable efforts to remedy parenting deficiencies.

              (9) Persons or agencies exchanging information under subsection (7) of this section shall not further disseminate or release the information except as authorized by state or federal statute. Violation of this subsection is a misdemeanor.

              (10) Upon receiving reports of abuse or neglect, the department or law enforcement agency may interview children. The interviews may be conducted on school premises, at day-care facilities, at the child's home, or at other suitable locations outside of the presence of parents. Parental notification of the interview shall occur at the earliest possible point in the investigation that will not jeopardize the safety or protection of the child or the course of the investigation. Prior to commencing the interview the department or law enforcement agency shall determine whether the child wishes a third party to be present for the interview and, if so, shall make reasonable efforts to accommodate the child's wishes. Unless the child objects, the department or law enforcement agency shall make reasonable efforts to include a third party in any interview so long as the presence of the third party will not jeopardize the course of the investigation.

              (11) Upon receiving a report ((of incidents, conditions, or circumstances)) of child abuse and neglect, the department or investigating law enforcement agency shall have access to all relevant records of the child in the possession of mandated reporters and their employees.

              (12) The department shall maintain investigation records and conduct timely and periodic reviews of all cases constituting abuse and neglect. The department shall maintain a log of screened-out nonabusive cases.

              (13) The department ((of social and health services)) shall((, within funds appropriated for this purpose,)) use a risk assessment ((tool)) process when investigating child abuse and neglect referrals. ((The tool shall be used, on a pilot basis, in three local office service areas.)) The department shall present the risk factors at all hearings in which the placement of a dependent child is an issue. The department shall, within funds appropriated for this purpose, offer enhanced community-based services to persons who are determined not to require further state intervention.

              The department shall provide annual reports to the ((ways and means)) appropriate committees of the senate and house of representatives on the ((use)) effectiveness of the ((tool by December 1, 1989. The report shall include recommendations on the continued use and possible expanded use of the tool)) risk assessment process.

              (14) Upon receipt of ((such)) a report of abuse or neglect the law enforcement agency may arrange to interview the person making the report and any collateral sources to determine if any malice is involved in the reporting."

              On page 1, line 1 of the title, after "children;" strike the remainder of the title and insert "and amending RCW 26.44.030."

and the same are herewith transmitted.

Secs. 5101 et seq.) grants to this state under P.L. 93-247, or any related state or federal legislation, a person appointed pursuant to RCW 13.34.100 shall be deemed a guardian ad litem to represent the best interests of the minor in proceedings before the court.

              (b) Customers may be more willing to accept investments in energy efficiency and conservation if real and perceived impediments to property transactions are avoided;

              (c) Potential purchasers of real property should be notified of any utility conservation charges at the earliest point possible in the sale.

              (2) It is the intent of the legislature to encourage utilities to develop innovative approaches designed to promote energy efficiency and conservation that have limited rate impacts on utility customers. It is not the intent of the legislature to restrict the authority of the utilities and transportation commission to approve tariff schedules.

              (3) It is also the intent of the legislature that utilities which establish conservation tariffs should undertake measures to assure that potential purchasers of property are aware of the existence of any conservation tariffs. Measures that may be considered include, but are not limited to:

              (a) Recording a notice of a conservation tariff payment obligation, containing a legal description, with the county property records;

              (b) Annually notifying customers who have entered agreements of the conservation tariff obligation;

              (c) Working with the real estate industry to provide for disclosure of conservation tariff obligations in standardized listing agreements and earnest money agreements; and

              (d) Working with title insurers to provide recorded conservation tariff obligations as an informational note to the preliminary commitment for policy of title insurance.


              NEW SECTION. Sec. 2. A new section is added to chapter 80.28 RCW to read as follows:

              (1) Upon request by an electrical or gas company, the commission may approve a tariff schedule that contains rates or charges for energy conservation measures, services, or payments provided to individual property owners or customers. The tariff schedule shall require the electrical or gas company to enter into an agreement with the property owner or customer receiving services at the time the conservation measures, services, or payments are initially provided. The tariff schedule may allow for the payment of the rates or charges over a period of time and for the application of the payment obligation to successive property owners or customers at the premises where the conservation measures or services were installed or performed or with respect to which the conservation payments were made.

              (2) The electrical or gas company shall record a notice of a payment obligation, containing a legal description, resulting from an agreement under this section with the county auditor or recording officer as provided in RCW 65.04.030.

              (3) The commission may prescribe by rule other methods by which an electrical or gas company shall notify property owners or customers of any such payment obligation.


              NEW SECTION. Sec. 3. A new section is added to chapter 64.04 RCW to read as follows:

              Prior to closing, the seller of real property subject to a rate or charge for energy conservation measures, services, or payments provided under a tariff approved by the utilities and transportation commission pursuant to section 2 of this act shall disclose to the purchaser of the real property the existence of the obligation and the possibility that the purchaser may be responsible for the payment obligation.


              NEW SECTION. Sec. 4. A new section is added to chapter 48.29 RCW to read as follows:

              The existence of notices of payment obligations in section 2 of this act may be disclosed as an informational note to a preliminary commitment for policy of title insurance. Neither the inclusion nor the exclusion of any such informational note shall create any liability against such title insurer under any preliminary commitment for title insurance, policy or otherwise."

SENATE AMENDMENTS TO HOUSE BILL


April 9, 1993



Mr. Speaker:

              The Senate has passed ENGROSSED SUBSTITUTE HOUSE BILL NO. 1333, with the following amendment:


              Strike everything after the enacting clause and insert the following:

              "NEW SECTION. Sec. 1. The legislature finds and declares that:

              (1) The number of youth who are members and associates of gangs and commit gang violence has significantly increased throughout the entire greater Puget Sound, Spokane, and other areas of the state;

              (2) Youth gang violence has caused a tremendous strain on the progress of the communities impacted. The loss of life, property, and positive opportunity for growth caused by youth gang violence has reached intolerable levels. Increased youth gang activity has seriously strained the budgets of many local jurisdictions, as well as threatened the ability of the educational system to educate our youth;

              (3) Among youth gang members the high school drop-out rate is significantly higher than among nongang members. Since the economic future of our state depends on a highly educated and skilled work force, this high school drop-out rate threatens the economic welfare of our future work force, as well as the future economic growth of our state;

              (4) The unemployment rate among youth gang members is higher than that among the general youth population. The unusual unemployment rate, lack of education and skills, and the increased criminal activity could significantly impact our future prison population;

              (5) Most youth gangs are subcultural. This implies that gangs provide the nurturing, discipline, and guidance to gang youth and potential gang youth that is generally provided by communities and other social systems. The subcultural designation means that youth gang participation and violence can be effectively reduced in Washington communities and schools through the involvement of community, educational, criminal justice, and employment systems working in a unified manner with parents and individuals who have a firsthand knowledge of youth gangs and at-risk youth; and

              (6) A strong unified effort among parents and community, educational, criminal justice, and employment systems would facilitate: (a) The learning process; (b) the control and reduction of gang violence; (c) the prevention of youth joining negative gangs; and (d) the intervention into youth gangs.


              NEW SECTION. Sec. 2. It is the intent of the legislature to cause the development of positive prevention and intervention pilot programs for elementary and secondary age youth through cooperation between individual schools, local organizations, and government. It is also the intent of the legislature that if the prevention and intervention pilot programs are determined to be effective in reducing problems associated with youth gang violence, that other counties in the state be eligible to receive special state funding to establish similar positive prevention and intervention programs.


              NEW SECTION. Sec. 3. Unless the context otherwise requires, the following definitions shall apply throughout sections 1 through 11 of this act:

              (1) "School" means any public school within a school district any portion of which is in a county with a population of over one hundred ninety thousand.

              (2) "Community organization" means any organization recognized by a city or county as such, as well as private, nonprofit organizations registered with the secretary of state.

              (3) "Gang risk prevention and intervention pilot program" means a community-based positive prevention and intervention program for gang members, potential gang members, at-risk youth, and elementary through high school-aged youth directed at all of the following:

              (a) Reducing the probability of youth involvement in gang activities and consequent violence.

              (b) Establishing ties, at an early age, between youth and community organizations.

              (c) Committing local business and community resources to positive programming for youth.

              (d) Committing state resources to assist in creating the gang risk prevention and intervention pilot programs.

              (4) "Cultural awareness retreat" means a program that temporarily relocates at-risk youth or gang members and their parents from their usual social environment to a different social environment, with the specific purpose of having them performing activities which will enhance or increase their positive behavior and potential life successes.


              NEW SECTION. Sec. 4. (1) The department of community development may recommend existing programs or contract with either school districts or community organizations, or both, through a request for proposal process for the development, administration, and implementation in the county of community-based gang risk prevention and intervention pilot programs.

              (2) Proposals by the school district for gang risk prevention and intervention pilot program grant funding shall begin with school years no sooner than the 1994-95 session, and last for a duration of two years.

              (3) The school district or community organization proposal shall include:

              (a) A description of the program goals, activities, and curriculum. The description of the program goals shall include a list of measurable objectives for the purpose of evaluation by the department of community development. To the extent possible, proposals shall contain empirical data on current problems, such as drop-out rates and occurrences of violence on and off campus by school-age individuals.

              (b) A description of the individual school or schools and the geographic area to be affected by the program.

              (c) A demonstration of broad-based support for the program from business and community organizations.

              (d) A clear description of the experience, expertise, and other qualifications of the community organizations to conduct an effective prevention and intervention program in cooperation with a school or a group of schools.

              (e) A proposed budget for expenditure of the grant.

              (4) Grants awarded under this section may not be used for the administrative costs of the school district or the individual school.


              NEW SECTION. Sec. 5. (1) A school district in a county with a population of over one hundred ninety thousand may request proposals for establishing gang risk prevention and intervention pilot programs from either public entities that apply jointly with individual schools or community organizations. The proposals shall be reviewed and recommendations for awarding grants shall be made by a committee made up of: (a) A representative from the school district taking the proposal, appointed by the school district's board of directors; (b) a representative appointed by the director of the department of community development or designate; and (c) a representative from the local juvenile court administration.

              (2) A school district or community organization, upon its election to enter into a contract pursuant to section 4 of this act, shall, no later than March 1, 1994, submit a standard request for proposals.

              (3) Proposals made to the department of community development must comply with the conditions of the grant.

              (4) The department of community development shall additionally monitor and evaluate the gang risk prevention and intervention pilot programs pursuant to the following criteria:

              (a) Success in obtaining stated goals.

              (b) Reduction in drop-out rates.

              (c) Reduction in violence among students, on and off campus.

              (d) Development of techniques for early identification of at-risk youth.

              (5) The school district or community organization shall report to the department of community development the results of the program.

              (6) Grants awarded under this section may not be used for administrative costs of the school district or the individual school.


              NEW SECTION. Sec. 6. Gang risk prevention and intervention pilot programs shall include, but are not limited to:

              (3) Job training, which may include apprentice programs in coordination with local businesses, job skills development at the school, or information about vocational opportunities in the community.

              (4) Positive interaction with local law enforcement personnel.

              (5) The use of local organizations to provide job search training skills.

              (6) Cultural awareness retreats.

              (7) The use of specified state resources, as requested.

              (8) Full service schools under section 9 of this act.

              (1) Any police officer having probable cause to believe that a person has committed or is committing a misdemeanor or gross misdemeanor, involving physical harm or threats of harm to any person or property or the unlawful taking of property or involving the use or possession of cannabis, or involving the acquisition, possession, or consumption of alcohol by a person under the age of twenty-one years under RCW 66.44.270 shall have the authority to arrest the person.

              (2) A police officer shall arrest and take into custody, pending release on bail, personal recognizance, or court order, a person without a warrant when the officer has probable cause to believe that:

Bodily injury means physical pain, illness, or an impairment of physical condition. When the officer has probable cause to believe that spouses, former spouses, or other persons who reside together or formerly resided together have assaulted each other, the officer is not required to arrest both persons. The officer shall arrest the person whom the officer believes to be the primary physical aggressor. In making this determination, the officer shall make every reasonable effort to consider: (i) The intent to protect victims of domestic violence under RCW 10.99.010; (ii) the comparative extent of injuries inflicted or serious threats creating fear of physical injury; and (iii) the history of domestic violence between the persons involved.

              (6) An officer may act upon the request of a law enforcement officer in whose presence a traffic infraction was committed, to stop, detain, arrest, or issue a notice of traffic infraction to the driver who is believed to have committed the infraction.

              (((10))) (11) No police officer may be held criminally or civilly liable for making an arrest pursuant to RCW 10.31.100(2) or (8) if the police officer acts in good faith and without malice.


              NEW SECTION. Sec. 6. (1) A person or health care facility aggrieved by the actions prohibited by section 3 of this act may seek civil damages from those who committed the prohibited acts and those acting in concert with them. A plaintiff in an action brought under this chapter shall not recover more than his or her actual damages and additional sums authorized in section 7 of this act.

              NEW SECTION. Sec. 8. Nothing in section 3 of this act shall prohibit either lawful picketing or other publicity for the purpose of providing the public with information.


              NEW SECTION. Sec. 9. A court having jurisdiction over a criminal or civil proceeding under this chapter shall take all steps reasonably necessary to safeguard the individual privacy and prevent harassment of a health care patient or health care provider who is a party or witness in a proceeding, including granting protective orders and orders in limine.


              Sec. 10. RCW 10.97.070 and 1977 ex.s. c 314 s 7 are each amended to read as follows:

              (1) Criminal justice agencies may, in their discretion, disclose to persons who have suffered physical loss, property damage, or injury compensable through civil action, the identity of persons suspected as being responsible for such loss, damage, or injury together with such information as the agency reasonably believes may be of assistance to the victim in obtaining civil redress. Such disclosure may be made without regard to whether the suspected offender is an adult or a juvenile, whether charges have or have not been filed, or a prosecuting authority has declined to file a charge or a charge has been dismissed.

              (2) Unless the agency determines release would interfere with an ongoing criminal investigation, in any action brought pursuant to this chapter, criminal justice agencies shall disclose identifying information, including photographs of suspects, if the acts are alleged by the plaintiff or victim to be a violation of section 3 of this act.

              (3) The disclosure by a criminal justice agency of investigative information pursuant to subsection (1) of this section shall not establish a duty to disclose any additional information concerning the same incident or make any subsequent disclosure of investigative information, except to the extent an additional disclosure is compelled by legal process.


              NEW SECTION. Sec. 11. Nothing in this chapter shall be construed to limit the right to seek other available criminal or civil remedies. The remedies provided in this chapter are cumulative, not exclusive.


              NEW SECTION. Sec. 12. If any provision of this act or its application to any person or circumstance is held invalid, the remainder of the act or the application of the provision to other persons or circumstances is not affected.


              NEW SECTION. Sec. 13. Sections 2 through 4, 6 through 9, and 11 of this act shall constitute a new chapter in Title 9A RCW.


              NEW SECTION. Sec. 14. This act is necessary for the immediate preservation of the public peace, health, or safety, or support of the state government and its existing public institutions, and shall take effect immediately."

              Sec. 2. RCW 70.119A.040 and 1990 c 133 s 8 are each amended to read as follows:

              (1)(a) In addition to or as an alternative to any other penalty ((provided)) or action allowed by law, ((every)) a person who ((commits any of the acts or omissions in RCW 70.119A.030 shall be subjected)) violates a law or rule regulating public water systems and administered by the department of health is subject to a penalty ((in an amount of not less than five hundred dollars. The maximum penalty shall be)) of not more than five thousand dollars per day for every such violation, or, in the case of a violation that has been determined to be a public health emergency, a penalty of not more than ten thousand dollars per day for every such violation. Every such violation shall be a separate and distinct offense.

In case of continuing violation, every day's continuance shall be a separate and distinct violation.

              (b) In addition, a person who constructs, modifies, or expands a public water system or who commences the construction, modification, or expansion of a public water system without first obtaining the required departmental approval is subject to penalties of not more than five thousand dollars per service connection, or, in the case of a system serving a transient population, a penalty of not more than four hundred dollars per person based on the highest average daily population the system is anticipated to serve.

Upon receipt of the application, the department may remit or mitigate the penalty upon whatever terms the department in its discretion deems proper, giving consideration to the degree of hazard associated with the violation, provided the department deems such remission or mitigation to be in the best interests of carrying out the purposes of this chapter. The department shall not mitigate the fines below the minimum penalty prescribed in subsection (1) of this section. The department shall have authority to ascertain the facts regarding all such applications in such reasonable manner as it may deem proper. When an application for remission on mitigation is made, a penalty incurred under this section is due twenty-eight days after receipt of the notice setting forth the disposition of the application, unless an application for an adjudicative proceeding to contest the disposition is filed as provided in subsection (4) of this section.

              (4))) Within twenty-eight days after notice is received, the person incurring the penalty may file an application for an adjudicative proceeding and may pursue subsequent review as provided in chapter 34.05 RCW and applicable rules of the department or board of health.

              (((5))) (4) A penalty imposed by a final administrative order ((after an adjudicative proceeding)) is due upon service of the final administrative order.

              (5) A person who institutes proceedings for judicial review of a final administrative order assessing a civil penalty under this chapter shall place the full amount of the penalty in an interest bearing account in the registry of the reviewing court. At the conclusion of the proceeding the court shall, as appropriate, enter a judgment on behalf of the department and order that the judgment be satisfied to the extent possible from moneys paid into the registry of the court or shall enter a judgment in favor of the person appealing the penalty assessment and order return of the moneys paid into the registry of the court together with accrued interest to the person appealing. The judgment may award reasonable attorney's fees for the cost of the attorney general's office in representing the department.

              (6) ((The attorney general may bring an action in the name of the department in the superior court of Thurston county, or of any county in which such violator may do business, to collect a penalty.

              (7))) If no appeal is taken from a final administrative order assessing a civil penalty under this chapter, the department may file a certified copy of the final administrative order with the clerk of the superior court in which the public water system is located or in Thurston county, and the clerk shall enter judgment in the name of the department and in the amount of the penalty assessed in the final administrative order.

              (7) A judgment entered under subsection (5) or (6) of this section shall have the same force and effect as, and is subject to all of the provisions of law relating to, a judgment in a civil action, and may be enforced in the same manner as any other judgment of the court in which it is entered.

              (8) All penalties imposed under this section shall be payable to the state treasury and credited to the general fund.

              (9) Except in cases of public health emergencies, the department may not impose monetary penalties under this section unless a prior effort has been made to resolve the violation informally.


              Sec. 3. RCW 70.119A.050 and 1989 c 422 s 8 are each amended to read as follows:

              Each local board of health that is enforcing the regulations under an agreement with the department allocating state and local responsibility is authorized to impose and collect civil penalties for violations within the area of its responsibility under the same limitations and requirements imposed upon the department by RCW 70.119A.030 and 70.119A.040, except that judgment shall be entered in the name of the local board penalties shall be placed into the general fund of the county, city, or town operating the local board of health((, and the prosecuting attorney, or city, or town attorney shall bring the actions to collect the unpaid penalties)).


              NEW SECTION. Sec. 4. A new section is added to chapter 70.119A RCW to read as follows:

For the purposes of this section, "premises under the control of a public water system" does not include the premises or private property of a customer of a public water system past the point on the system where the service connection is made.

              (b) The secretary or his or her designee need not give prior notification to enter a premises under (a) of this subsection if the purpose of the entry is to ensure compliance by the public water system with a prior order of the department or if the secretary or the secretary's designee has reasonable cause to believe the public water system is violating the law and poses a serious threat to public health and safety.

              (2) The secretary or his or her designee may apply for an administrative search warrant to a court official authorized to issue a criminal search warrant. An administrative search warrant may be issued for the purposes of inspecting or examining property, buildings, premises, place, books, records, or other physical evidence, or conducting tests or taking samples. The warrant shall be issued upon probable cause. It is sufficient probable cause to show any of the following:

              (a) The inspection, examination, test, or sampling is pursuant to a general administrative plan to determine compliance with laws or rules administered by the department; or

              (b) The secretary or his or her designee has reason to believe that a violation of a law or rule administered by the department has occurred, is occurring, or may occur.

              (3) The local health officer or the designee of a local health officer of a local board of health that is enforcing rules regulating public water systems under an agreement with the department allocating state and local responsibility is authorized to conduct investigations and to apply for, obtain, and execute administrative search warrants necessary to perform the local board's agreed-to responsibilities under the same limitations and requirements imposed on the department under this section."        On page 1, line 1 of the title, after "requirements;" strike the remainder of the title and insert "amending RCW 70.119A.030, 70.119A.040, and 70.119A.050; adding a new section to chapter 70.119A RCW; and prescribing penalties."

SENATE BILL NO. 5759,

SENATE BILL NO. 5906,


POINT OF PARLIAMENTARY INQUIRY


              Representative Padden: Mr. Speaker, earlier today on a Conference Committee dealing with the education reform bill you appointed, and that's Engrossed Substitute House Bill No. 1209, you appointed three individuals all who have voted yes on the bill to be House members of the Conference Committee. Under Joint Rule 23 we are required to appoint two in the majority and one in the minority position. On that bill there were twelve individuals who voted nay, two from the majority party and ten from the minority party, and one of those individuals should have been appointed to the Conference Committee.


              Mr. Speaker: I believe Representative Padden, the rules states two from the majority party and one from the minority party and to the extent possible to reflect the position of the members of the bill, is that your interpretation?


              Representative Padden: Mr. Speaker, if I might respectfully suggest it actually says that the majority and minority positions to the extent possible. I have the rule right here Mr. Speaker, I'll read it. The presiding officer of each House shall appoint on each Conference Committee three members selecting them so as to represent in each case the majority and minority positions to the extent possible as it relates to the subject matter and the majority and minority political parties. Since there were individuals from both political parties who voted no to the extent possible, it is possible to appoint members who voted no, on that Conference Committee according to our rules.


              Mr. Speaker: Representative Padden, the Speaker followed the recommendation of the minority leader in making the Republican appointment. If you would take up your issue with the minority leader maybe we can work it out.


              With the consent of the House, the House resumed consideration of Substitute House Bill No. 1275.


SPEAKER'S RULING


              Representative Rust has raised a point of order to the scope and object of Senate amendment #561 to Substitute House Bill No. 1275.

              In ruling on the Point of Order, the Speaker finds that Substitute House Bill No. 1275 is a measure which exempts site exploration and investigation activities that meet certain criteria from the requirements of substantial development permits.

              Senate amendment #561 (on page 6, after line 21) merely adds an alternative to one of the criteria specified in the bill.

              The Speaker therefore finds that Senate Amendment #561 does not change the scope and object of the bill and that the Point of Order is not well taken.


MOTION


              Representative Rust moved that the House do not concur with the Senate amendment #561 and ask the Senate to recede therefrom. The motion was carried.


              With the consent of the House, the House resumed consideration of Substitute House Bill No. 1350.


SPEAKER'S RULING


              Representative Rust has raised a Point of Order to the scope and object of Senate amendment #754 to Substitute House Bill No. 1350.

              The Speaker finds that Substitute House Bill No. 1350 is a measure which relates solely to the regulation of commercial fishing of ocean pink shrimp, a species identified in the bill as "Pandalus Jordani".

              Senate amendment #754 (on page 5, after line 11) relates to burrowing shrimp on registered aquatic farms.

              The Speaker therefore finds that Senate amendment #754 does change the scope and object of the bill and that the Point of Order is well taken.


              With the consent of the House, the House resumed consideration of House Bill No. 1984.


SPEAKER'S RULING


              Representative Rust has raised a Point of Order to the scope and object of the Senate amendment to page 2 of House Bill No. 1984.

              In ruling on the Point of Order, the Speaker finds that House Bill No. 1984 is a measure revising pilotage law. Among other provisions, it addresses the membership of the board of pilotage commissioners.

              The Senate amendments to page 2 merely take away the voting privileges of two of the existing board members.

              The Speaker therefore finds that the Senate amendments do not change the scope and object of the bill and that the Point of Order is not well taken.


MOTION


              Representative R. Fisher moved that the House do not concur in the Senate amendments to House Bill No. 1984 and ask the Senate to recede therefrom.


              Representative Schmidt spoke against the motion.


              A division was called. The Speaker called on the House to divide. The results of the division was: 61-YEAS; 34-NAYS. The motion was carried.


              With the consent of the House, the House resumed consideration of Substitute House Bill No. 1350.


MOTION


              Representative King moved that the House do not concur in the Senate amendments to Substitute House Bill No. 1350 on page 4, line 13 and ask the Senate to recede therefrom.


              Representative King spoke in favor of the motion and Representative Fuhrman spoke against it. The motion was carried.


STATEMENT FOR THE JOURNAL


              Had I been present I would have voted as follows on the roll call votes taken today.


SUBSTITUTE HOUSE BILL NO. 1128                                                                                                                  YES
