PROPOSED RULES

PUGET SOUND

CLEAN AIR AGENCY

[ Filed May 19, 2004, 12:26 p.m. ]

     Original Notice.

     Exempt from preproposal statement of inquiry under RCW 70.94.141(1).

     Title of Rule: Repeal Regulation I, Sections 5.02, Amend Regulation I, Sections 5.03, 5.05, and 5.07.

     Purpose: To improve the classification of air contaminant sources and to clarify reporting requirements.

     Other Identifying Information: 5.02 is the Applicability and Purpose of the Registration Program. 5.03 is Registration Required. 5.05 is the General Reporting Requirements for Registration. 5.07 is the Annual Registration Fees.

     Statutory Authority for Adoption: Chapter 70.94 RCW.

     Statute Being Implemented: RCW 70.94.141 and 70.94.151.

     Summary: Section 5.02 will be repealed since the applicability provisions are moving to Section 5.03; the reporting requirements are moving to Section 5.05, and the fee provisions are moving to Section 5.07. These changes will improve the classification of air contaminant sources and clarify the reporting requirements.

     Reasons Supporting Proposal: The applicability provisions in Section 5.02 belong in Section 5.03, the reporting provisions belong in Section 5.05, and the fee provisions belong in Section 5.07. This includes the statutory applicability provision presently in Section 5.02(a), the statutory reporting provision presently in Section 5.02(c), and the statutory fee provision presently in Section 5.02(d).

     Puget Sound Clean Air Agency implements the source classification provisions of RCW 70.94.151(1) through Section 5.03. The proposed amendments are an effort to better classify air contaminant sources as authorized by RCW 70.94.151.

     Puget Sound Clean Air Agency implements the reporting provisions of RCW 70.94.151(2) through Section 5.05. The proposed amendments are an effort to clarify these requirements. The existing regulations include reporting provisions in various portions of Article 5.

     Puget Sound Clean Air Agency implements the fee provisions of RCW 70.94.151(2) through Section 5.07. The proposed amendments are an effort to establish a fee structure based on the revised classification system. The proposed fee structure should more closely resemble the level of effort required to administer the registration program for each class of sources.

     Name of Agency Personnel Responsible for Drafting: Gerry Pade, 110 Union Street, #500, Seattle, WA 98101, (206) 689-4065; Implementation: Dave Kircher, 110 Union Street, #500, Seattle, WA 98101, (206) 689-4050; and Enforcement: Jim Nolan, 110 Union Street, #500, Seattle, WA 98101, (206) 689-4053.

     Name of Proponent: Puget Sound Clean Air Agency, governmental.

     Agency Comments or Recommendations, if any, as to Statutory Language, Implementation, Enforcement, and Fiscal Matters: The state implementation plan will be updated to reflect these amendments.

     Rule is not necessitated by federal law, federal or state court decision.

     Explanation of Rule, its Purpose, and Anticipated Effects: Section 5.02 will be repealed since the applicability provisions are moving to Section 5.03; the reporting requirements are moving to Section 5.05, and the fee provisions are moving to Section 5.07.

     These changes will improve the classification of air contaminant sources and clarify the reporting requirements.

     A small number of sources that are currently registered will no longer require registration, however as is stated in Section 5.03(d), exemption from registration is not an exemption from any other provisions of the Agency's regulations.

     Proposal Changes the Following Existing Rules: Section 5.02 will be repealed; the applicability provisions in Section 5.02 will move to Section 5.03; the reporting requirements will move to Section 5.05; and the fee provisions will move to Section 5.07.

     No small business economic impact statement has been prepared under chapter 19.85 RCW. This agency is not subject to the small business economic impact provision of the Administrative Procedure Act.

     RCW 34.05.328 does not apply to this rule adoption. Pursuant to RCW 70.94.141(1), RCW 34.05.328 does not apply to this rule adoption.

     Hearing Location: Puget Sound Clean Air Agency, 110 Union Street, Suite 500, Seattle, WA 98101, on June 24, 2004, at 9:15 a.m.

     Assistance for Persons with Disabilities: Contact Agency Receptionist, (206) 689-4010, by June 17, 2004, TDD (800) 833-6388 or (800) 833-6385 (Braille).
