Purpose: Title 236 WAC previously fell under department of general administration's (GA) authority.

Because of this reorganization of state agencies, Title 236 WAC was recodified to Title 200 WAC, DES. All references to Title 236 WAC and individual WAC within that title are changed to reflect the rule's new citation in Title 200 WAC.
