Additional rule-making topics that may be initiated over the course of this year are as follows:
-
New provisions under chapter 220-660 WAC for sediment removal from small streams.
-
Potential amendments to rules in chapter 220-660 WAC after reviewing the rules recently adopted in 2014. The changes will include technical changes, and may include more substantive changes once listening sessions with stakeholders are held and feedback from those sessions and other comments are reviewed.
-
Potential species listing changes for peregrine falcon, white pelican, yellow-billed cuckoo, and golden eagle after each species is assessed under the periodic status review.
