Effective Date of Rule: Thirty-one days after filing.

     Purpose: In 1997 the department of transportation was created (RCW 47.01.031) and the aeronautics commission was abolished. The Washington state department of transportation formed the WSDOT aviation division (RCW 47.68.015) to oversee aviation in the state. Chapter 12-08 WAC refers to the practice and procedures of the aeronautics commission hearings. The aeronautics commission was abolished and therefore the WAC should be repealed.
