Effective Date of Rule: Immediately.

     Purpose: WAC 246-887-100, the rule adds the chemicals JWH-018, JWH-073, JWH-200, CP-47,497, cannabicyclohexanol, methylmethcathinone, methylenedioxypyrovalerone, methylenedioxymethylcathinone, methylbenzodioxolylpropylamine, and fluoromethcathinone to Schedule I. Schedule I substances have a high potential for abuse and no accepted medical use. The rule makes it illegal to sell or possess these chemicals or products containing these substances.

     Citation of Existing Rules Affected by this Order: Amending WAC 246-887-100.

     Statutory Authority for Adoption: RCW 69.50.201(a), 69.50.203.

     Other Authority: RCW 18.64.005(7).

     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: By adding these chemicals to Schedule I of the controlled substances list, the board of pharmacy identifies these substances as having a high potential for abuse with no medical use. The rule gives law enforcement clear authority to prosecute for the sale, possession, manufacture, or delivery of these substances and is consistent with the direction from the DEA.
