EMERGENCY RULES

DEPARTMENT OF

FISH AND WILDLIFE

[ Order 06-276 -- Filed October 20, 2006, 1:22 p.m. , effective October 20, 2006 ]


     Effective Date of Rule: Immediately.

     Purpose: Amend hunting rules.

     Citation of Existing Rules Affected by this Order: Amending WAC 232-28-430.

     Statutory Authority for Adoption: RCW 77.12.047.

     Under RCW 34.05.350 the agency for good cause finds that immediate adoption, amendment, or repeal of a rule is necessary for the preservation of the public health, safety, or general welfare, and that observing the time requirements of notice and opportunity to comment upon adoption of a permanent rule would be contrary to the public interest.

     Reasons for this Finding: The change to the migratory waterfowl season is necessary to correct a typographical error. There is insufficient time to promulgate permanent rules.

     Number of Sections Adopted in Order to Comply with Federal Statute: New 0, Amended 0, Repealed 0; Federal Rules or Standards: New 0, Amended 0, Repealed 0; or Recently Enacted State Statutes: New 0, Amended 0, Repealed 0.

     Number of Sections Adopted at Request of a Nongovernmental Entity: New 0, Amended 0, Repealed 0.

     Number of Sections Adopted on the Agency's Own Initiative: New 1, Amended 0, Repealed 0.

     Number of Sections Adopted in Order to Clarify, Streamline, or Reform Agency Procedures: New 0, Amended 0, Repealed 0.

     Date Adopted: October 20, 2006.
