WSR 16-08-037 EMERGENCY RULES DEPARTMENT OF FISH AND WILDLIFE [Order 16-53—Filed March 30, 2016, 12:25 p.m., effective April 16, 2016] Effective Date of Rule: April 16, 2016.
Purpose: Amend recreational fishing rules for Tanwax Lake.
Citation of Existing Rules Affected by this Order: Repealing WAC 220-310-19000X; and amending WAC 220-310-190.
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: Tanwax Lake is being opened for one day of fishing to provide angling opportunity for Heros [Heroes] on the Waters [Water] NW Chapter fishing event. Preregistered veterans only will be permitted to fish throughout the lake. There is insufficient time to adopt permanent rules.
Number of Sections Adopted in Order to Comply with Federal Statute: New 0, Amended 0, Repealed 0; Federal Rules or Standards: New 0, Amended 0, Repealed 0; or Recently Enacted State Statutes: New 0, Amended 0, Repealed 0.
Number of Sections Adopted at Request of a Nongovernmental Entity: New 0, Amended 0, Repealed 0.
Number of Sections Adopted on the Agency's Own Initiative: New 1, Amended 0, Repealed 1.
