PREPROPOSAL STATEMENT OF INQUIRY

DEPARTMENT OF LICENSING

[Filed September 21, 2020, 10:29 a.m.]

Subject of Possible Rule Making: Mother's maiden name, WAC 308-104-014 Application for driver's license or identicard.

Statutes Authorizing the Agency to Adopt Rules on this Subject: RCW 46.01.110 and 46.20.119.

Reasons Why Rules on this Subject may be Needed and What They Might Accomplish: The department of licensing, as part of its ongoing evaluation of data collection practices, is proposing that WAC 308-104-014 be amended to remove the requirement that applicants provide: "(5) The person's mother's maiden name and whether the person is one of multiple siblings born at the same time." This information is no longer necessary for the department's purposes.

Other Federal and State Agencies that Regulate this Subject and the Process Coordinating the Rule with These Agencies: Not applicable.

Process for Developing New Rule: The department reviewed internal processes and determined that there is no longer a purpose to collect this information.

Interested parties can participate in the decision to adopt the new rule and formulation of the proposed rule before publication by contacting Ellis Starrett, 1125 Washington Street S.E., Olympia, WA 98504, phone 360-902-3846, email estarrett@dol.wa.gov; or Greg Mukai, 1125 Washington Street S.E., Olympia, WA 98504, phone 360-902-3766, email GMukai@dol.wa.gov.
