PREPROPOSAL STATEMENT OF INQUIRY

[Filed June 9, 2014, 11:31 a.m.]

Subject of Possible Rule Making: WAC 392-121-257 Finance—General apportionment—Definition—In-service credits.

Statutes Authorizing the Agency to Adopt Rules on this Subject: RCW 28A.150.290(1) and 28A.415.023.

Reasons Why Rules on this Subject may be Needed and What They Might Accomplish: These rule revisions retract the rule revisions to WAC 392-121-257 that were implemented earlier this year in error. Therefore, the WAC section will be restored back to its original wording at the beginning of the 2013–14 school year.

Process for Developing New Rule: Early solicitation of public comments and recommendations respecting new, amended, or repealed rules, and consideration of the comments and recommendations in the course of drafting rules.

Interested parties can participate in the decision to adopt the new rule and formulation of the proposed rule before publication by contacting Ross Bunda, (360) 725-6308.
