MOTION


     Senator Jesernig moved that the Committee on Rules be relieved of further consideration of Senate Bill No. 5418 and that Senate Bill No. 5418 be referred to the Committee on Natural Resources.


POINT OF INQUIRY


     Senator Anderson: "Senator Jesernig, this is a bill that I did pull in Rules from the white sheet to the green sheet the other day. Now, it is being referred back to committee and I would like some assurance that this is not a measure to delay this action but just for further review by Senator Owen's committee."

     Senator Jesernig: "Thank you, Senator Anderson. I am hopeful that Senator Owen will be reviewing this. This was an agreement between the chairs when this bill came up that both committees would be reviewing this measure. It affects both agriculture and the Department of Wildlife and this shouldn't have gone to Rules in the first place. It should have gone straight to Natural Resources and so we are simply sending it there, where it should have gone in the first place."

     The President declared the question before the Senate to be the motion by Senator Jesernig that the Committee on Rules be relieved of Senate Bill No. 5418 and that Senate Bill No. 5418 be referred to the Committee on Natural Resources.

     Renumber the remaining sections consecutively.

     On page 2, line 28, after "through" strike "4" and insert "5"


POINT OF INQUIRY


     Senator Anderson: "Senator Fraser, before I vote on these amendments, which is an enforcement, I think we should maybe talk about the underlying substitute bill that is in our books. This is putting into effect, in the state of Washington, a percent limit of phosphorus on dishwasher and laundry soaps sold. Not having been in on the committee discussion, I really wanted to have a discussion if things like the commercial Tide laundry detergent and Bold laundry detergent and Cascade dishwasher liquid that we buy now would meet these limits, because if things that are on the shelf now would be outlawed, then I am hesitant to vote for an enforcement of that, not understanding how this is going to change our current system as a purchaser."

     Senator Fraser: "Thank you for your question. I am pleased to clarify that these limitations do not preclude the sale of any current dishwasher soap in the state. In fact, the limit is slightly above soaps that I know of that are being sold. The main effect is on laundry soap. Those are sold interchangeable and so the main effect of the entire bill is on laundry soap."

     Senator Anderson: "So, in following through with that, the laundry soap that you are talking about, the commercial brands like Tide laundry soap, that's what I use--I don't know what everyone else uses--Bold and those types of things, they would have to change in this state from the current on-the-shelf that the consumers can go buy right now?"

     Senator Fraser: "Both types are sold now in the state and they are sold interchangeable. You have to look very, very carefully on the box to determine which kind you are buying. With the passage of this bill, the distributors and purchasers who sell at retail would need to be sure that they order only the very low phosphate soap for laundry. In terms of your use of the word commercial, commercial and industrial uses are specifically exempted from the bill."

     Further debate ensued.

     The President declared the question before the Senate to be the adoption of the amendments by Senators Fraser, Barr, Talmadge and Hargrove on page 2, after line 27 and line 28 to Substitute Senate Bill No. 5320.

     The motion by Senator Fraser carried and the amendments were adopted.


MOTION


     On motion of Senator Fraser, Engrossed Substitute Senate Bill No. 5320 was advanced to third reading, the second reading considered the third and the bill was placed on final passage.

     The President declared the question before the Senate to be the roll call on the final passage of Engrossed Substitute Senate Bill No. 5320.
