PREPROPOSAL STATEMENT OF INQUIRY

[Filed June 4, 2014, 11:56 a.m.]

Subject of Possible Rule Making: Lists of vehicle owners—Definition of "legitimate businesses."

Statutes Authorizing the Agency to Adopt Rules on this Subject: RCW 46.01.110 and 46.12.630.

Reasons Why Rules on this Subject may be Needed and What They Might Accomplish: A recent amendment to RCW 46.12.630 (section 1, chapter 79, Laws of 2014) authorizes the release of lists of vehicle owners to "legitimate businesses as defined by the department in rule." Adding a definition of "legitimate businesses" to chapter 308-10 WAC is necessary in order to implement this change in statute.

Other Federal and State Agencies that Regulate this Subject and the Process Coordinating the Rule with These Agencies: None.

Process for Developing New Rule: Stakeholder input.

Interested parties can participate in the decision to adopt the new rule and formulation of the proposed rule before publication by contacting Clark J. Holloway, Department of Licensing, P.O. Box 9020, Olympia, WA 98507-9020, (360) 902-3846, cholloway@dol.wa.gov.
