Chapter 200-320 WAC, Competitive contracting.	Amend rules to update the bidding process for services that have been customarily and historically provided by state employees.

CR-102 proposed rules anticipated filing in March 2015.

Chapter 200-370 WAC, Credit, charge, or purchasing cards.	Expedited rule making to repeal chapter 200-370 WAC. Under HB [2SHB] 2452 (2012), commonly known as procurement reform, RCW 43.19.185 was repealed.

Final rule adoption anticipated in February 2015.
	While the development of credit card policies and standards are required under HB [2SHB] 2452, credit card rules are no longer required.
	In addition, fully developed and operational credit card systems, controls and policies are in place and widely used and followed by state agencies and departments.
	Because of this, chapter 200-370 WAC is no longer relevant.
New rule within Title 200 WAC trespassing on the capitol campus.	New rules are needed to specify the grounds upon which the state may give a trespass warning, excluding a person from the capitol buildings and grounds, and to put in place an administrative review process to satisfy a person's due process.	CR-101 was filed in December 2014. Proposed rules anticipated filing in March 2015.
