GAMBLING COMMISSION
[Filed February 21, 2018, 10:18 a.m.]
Title of Rule and Other Identifying Information: Chapter 230-06 WAC, WAC 230-06-125 Renew your license in a timely manner, 230-06-130 Exceeding license class, 230-06-135 Failing to apply for license class upgrade, 230-06-140 Partial refund of license fees if gambling receipts limit not met, and 230-06-145 Surrendering suspended or revoked licenses.
Purpose of the Proposal and Its Anticipated Effects, Including Any Changes in Existing Rules: The purpose of the proposal is to repeal WAC rules that are either no longer needed or have been rewritten and incorporated into chapter 230-05 WAC dealing with licensing and fees.
Reasons Supporting Proposal: They have been replaced with other WAC.
Statutory Authority for Adoption: RCW 9.46.070.
Statute Being Implemented: RCW 9.46.070.
Rule is not necessitated by federal law, federal or state court decision.
Name of Proponent: Washington state gambling commission, governmental.
Name of Agency Personnel Responsible for Drafting and Enforcement: Tina Griffin, Assistant Director, 4565 7th Avenue S.E., Lacey, WA 98503, 360-486-3546; and Implementation: David Trujillo, Director, 4565 7th Avenue S.E., Lacey, WA 98503, 360-486-3512.
This notice meets the following criteria to use the expedited repeal process for these rules:
The rule is no longer necessary because of changed circumstances.
Other rules of the agency or of another agency govern the same activity as the rule, making the rule redundant.
Explanation of the Reason the Agency Believes the Expedited Rule-Making Process is Appropriate: These rules have been part of the agency's fee simplification process, including negotiated rule making. The identified rules can be repealed through the expedited process because they will no longer be necessary once the new licensing fee and reporting structure is in place or they have been moved to the agency's primary licensing fee rules found in chapter 230-05 WAC and need to be repealed to prevent redundancy.
NOTICE
THIS RULE IS BEING PROPOSED UNDER AN EXPEDITED RULE-MAKING PROCESS THAT WILL ELIMINATE THE NEED FOR THE AGENCY TO HOLD PUBLIC HEARINGS, PREPARE A SMALL BUSINESS ECONOMIC IMPACT STATEMENT, OR PROVIDE RESPONSES TO THE CRITERIA FOR A SIGNIFICANT LEGISLATIVE RULE. IF YOU OBJECT TO THIS USE OF THE EXPEDITED RULE-MAKING PROCESS, YOU MUST EXPRESS YOUR OBJECTIONS IN WRITING AND THEY MUST BE SENT TO Brian Considine, Legal and Legislative Manager, Washington State Gambling Commission, 4565 7th Avenue S.E., Lacey, WA 98503, phone 360-486-3469, fax 360-486-3630, email rules.coordinator@wsgc.wa.gov, AND RECEIVED BY April 23, 2018.
