WSR 16-23-084 PERMANENT RULES DEPARTMENT OF LICENSING [Filed November 16, 2016, 9:30 a.m., effective December 17, 2016] Effective Date of Rule: Thirty-one days after filing.
Purpose: The department of licensing is repealing chapter 308-72 WAC, Motor vehicle fuel tax. This chapter is being repealed per SHB 1883. The bill simplifies and updates statutes related to fuel tax administration, signed into law in 2013 and effective July 1, 2016. The bill consolidated motor fuel (chapter 82.36 RCW) and special fuel (chapter 82.38 RCW) statutes. To reflect these changes, the department promulgated rule making to rewrite chapter 308-77 WAC and renamed it Fuel tax rules and regulations. These WAC changes were adopted by the department on June 9, 2016, with WSR 16-13-049 and 16-13-051. These revisions contain the elements needed to implement and manage both motor and special fuels. Since the motor fuel and special fuel taxation rules will be merged into a single WAC chapter to reflect SHB 1883, chapter 308-72 WAC is no longer needed; nor would it reflect current statutes.
