LCB is considering rule making to create summary license suspension and petition for stay provisions that would allow for enforcement of governor's proclamations. These permanent rules would supersede and replace emergency rules WAC 314-12-250 and 314-12-275, which established summary license suspension and petition for stay provisions for the enforcement of governor's proclamations issued as a result of the novel coronavirus (COVID-19) outbreak, filed as WSR 21-07-077 on March 17, 2021, and any successive emergency rules that supersede and replace WSR 21-07-077. As part of this rule making, LCB is considering potentially amending or repealing existing summary license suspension and petition for stay provisions, and any related provisions, in Title 314 WAC and consolidating these provisions into new rule sections applicable to all licensees.
