On page 1, after line 3, strike all of Section 1 and insert the following:
"NEW SECTION. Sec. 1. The legislature finds that in the early 1900's and up through the 1930's, counties took possession of a number of forest land parcels as a result of tax delinquencies. In many cases, the timber had already been harvested from these lands prior to the forfeiture of the property to the counties. Since that time, the department of natural resources has reforested and managed these lands in conjunction with state trust lands. Given changes in forest practices, fluctuation in income from the forest board lands, and questions about forest board land management by the department of natural resources, the legislature finds that a legislative study of forest board lands is appropriate.
There is created a joint select committee on county forest board lands. The committee shall be comprised of eight members of the legislature, who shall be appointed to the committee as follows: the president of the senate shall appoint two members, one from each caucus, to represent the senate natural resources committee, and two members, one from each caucus, to represent the senate ways and means committee; the speaker of the house of representatives shall appoint two members, one from each caucus, to represent the house natural resources committee, and two members, one from each caucus, to represent the house capital budget committee. In conducting this study, the committee shall seek input from the department of natural resources, counties with forest board transfer lands, and Grays Harbor county, which manages its own county forest lands. Staff support for the committee shall be provided by senate committee services and the house office of program research."
Representatives Fuhrman and Basich spoke in favor of the adoption of the amendment.
The amendment was adopted.
There being no objection, the rules were suspended, the second reading considered the third and the bill was placed on final passage.

The monetary penalty shall be awarded to the person against whom the false allegation is made.

Representative Appelwick yielded to a question to Representative Thibaudeau.
Representative Thibaudeau: Thank you Mr. Speaker. My concern in theses child abuse reporting issues, has to do with whether or not this particular bill might have a chilling effect on reporting on child abuse. Do you believe that this would prevent people from reporting some child abuse?
Representative Appelwick: Certainly we're all concerned that child abuse would in fact be reported. The amendments suggest that the penalties and the punishments in court whether civily or criminally apply only if the person made the allegations or enticed someone else to make them knowing that they're false. But I don't think that should cause parents who are doing so honestly will be afraid of these penalties, I certainly hope not the requirement to be subject to them is you had to know you were doing it and that it wasn't true when you did it.

The appropriations in this section are subject to the following conditions and limitations:
(1) The general fund--state appropriation includes such funds as are necessary for the remaining months of the 1994-95 school year.
(2) In recognition of the need for increased flexibility at the local district level to facilitate the provision of appropriate education to children with disabilities, and the need for substantive educational reform for a significant portion of the school population, the funding formula for special education is modified. These changes result from a 1994 study and recommendations by the institute for public policy and the legislative budget committee, aided by the office of the superintendent of public instruction and the statewide task force for the development of special education funding alternatives. The new formula is for allocation purposes only and is not intended to prescribe or imply any particular pattern of special education service delivery other than that contained in a properly formulated locally determined individualized education program.
(3) The superintendent of public instruction shall distribute state funds to school districts based on two categories, the mandatory special education program for special education students ages three to twenty-one and the optional birth through age two program for developmentally delayed infants and toddlers. The superintendent shall review current state eligibility criteria for the fourteen special education categories and consider changes which would reduce assessment time and administrative costs associated with the special education program.
(4) For the 1995-96 and 1996-97 school years, the superintendent shall distribute state funds to each district based on the sum of:
(a) A district's annual average headcount enrollment of developmentally delayed infants and toddlers ages birth through two, times the district's average basic education allocation per full-time equivalent student, times 1.15; and
(b) A district's annual average full-time equivalent basic education enrollment times the enrollment percent, times the district's average basic education allocation per full-time equivalent student times 0.943.
(5) The definitions in this subsection apply throughout this section.
(a) "Average basic education allocation per full-time equivalent student" for a district shall be based on the staffing ratios required by RCW 28A.150.260 (i.e., 49/1000 certificated instructional staff in grades K-3, and 46/1000 in grades 4-12), including the part-time health benefit ratio for the special education program, and shall not include enhancements for K-3, secondary vocational education, or small schools.
(b) "Annual average full-time equivalent basic education enrollment" means the resident enrollment including students enrolled through choice (RCW 28A.225.225) and students from nonhigh districts (RCW 28A.225.210) and excluding students residing in another district enrolled as part of an interdistrict cooperative program (RCW 28A.225.250).
(c) "Enrollment percent" shall mean the district's resident special education annual average enrollment, excluding the birth through age two enrollment, as a percent of the district's annual average full-time equivalent basic education enrollment. For the 1995-96 and the 1996-97 school years, each district's enrollment percent shall be:
(i) For districts whose enrollment percent for 1994-95 was at or below 12.7 percent, the lesser of the district's actual enrollment percent for the school year for which the allocation is being determined or 12.7 percent.
(ii) For districts whose enrollment percent for 1994-95 was above 12.7 percent, the lesser of:
(A) The district's actual enrollment percent for the school year for which the special education allocation is being determined; or
(B) The district's actual enrollment percent for the school year immediately prior to the school year for which the special education allocation is being determined; or
(C) For 1995-96, the 1994-95 enrollment percent reduced by 25 percent of the difference between the district's 1994-95 enrollment percent and 12.7. For 1996-97, the 1994-95 enrollment percent reduced by 50 percent of the difference between the district's 1994-95 enrollment percent and 12.7.
(6) A minimum of $4.5 million of the general fund--federal appropriation shall be expended for safety net funding to meet the extraordinary needs of individual special education students.
(7) From the general fund--state appropriation, $14,600,000 is provided for the 1995-96 school year, and $22,500,000 for the 1996-97 school year, for safety net purposes for districts with demonstrable funding needs for special education beyond the combined amounts provided in subsection (4) of this section. By July 1, 1995, the superintendent of public instruction shall, by rule, establish procedures and standards by which such determinations shall be made at each educational service district. The superintendent shall distribute safety net moneys to educational service districts and establish procedures for regional committees to consider district applications and make allocations, without deduction, based on the procedures and standards established by the superintendent subject to the following conditions and limitations:
(a) For a school district requesting state safety net funds due to special characteristics of the district and costs of providing services which differ significantly from the assumptions contained in the funding formula, the procedures and standards shall permit relief only if a district can demonstrate at a minimum that:

(ii) The district is making a reasonable effort to provide appropriate program services for special education students utilizing state funds generated by the apportionment and special education funding formulas;
(iii) The district's programs are operated in a reasonably efficient manner and that the district has adopted a plan of action to contain or eliminate any unnecessary, duplicative, or inefficient practices.
(iv) Indirect costs charged to this program do not exceed the allowable percent for the federal special education program;
(v) Any available federal funds are insufficient to address the additional needs; and
(vi) The costs of any supplemental contracts are not charged to this program for purposes of making these determinations.
(b) For districts requesting safety net funds due to federal maintenance of effort requirements, the procedures and standards shall permit relief only if a district can demonstrate at a minimum that:
(i) The district is making a reasonable effort to provide appropriate program services for special education students utilizing state funds generated by the apportionment and special education funding formulas;
(ii) Calculations made in accordance with subsection (8) of this section with respect to state fund allocations justify a need for additional funds for compliance with federal maintenance of effort requirements.
(8)(a) For purposes of making safety net determinations pursuant to subsection (7) of this section, the superintendent shall make available to each school district, from available data, prior to June 1st of each year:
(i) The district's 1994-95 enrollment percent;
(ii) For districts with a 1994-95 enrollment percent over 12.7 percent, the maximum 1995-96 enrollment percent, and prior to 1996-97 the maximum 1996-97 enrollment percent;
(iii) The estimate to be used for purposes of subsection (7) of this section of each district's 1994-95 special education allocation showing the excess cost and the basic education portions; and
(iv) If necessary, a process for each district to estimate the 1995-96 school year excess cost allocation for special education and the portion of the basic education allocation formerly included in the special education allocation. This process may utilize the allocations generated pursuant to subsection (5) of this section, each district's 1994-95 estimated basic education backout percent for the 1994-95 school year, and state compensation increases for 1995-96.
(b) The superintendent, in consultation with the state auditor, shall take all necessary steps to successfully transition to the new formula and minimize paperwork at the district level associated with maintenance of effort calculations. The superintendent shall develop such rules and procedures as are necessary to implement this process for the 1995-96 school year, and may use the same process for the 1996-97 school year if found necessary for federal maintenance of effort calculations.
(9) Prior to adopting any standards, procedures, or processes required to implement this section, the superintendent shall consult with the office of financial management and the fiscal committees of the legislature.
(10) The superintendent of public instruction, in cooperation with the office of financial management and the fiscal committees of the legislature, shall evaluate the operation of the safety nets under subsections (6) and (7) of this section and shall prepare an interim report by December 15, 1995 and a final report on the first school year of operation by October 15, 1996.

There being no objection, the House resumed consideration of Substitute Senate Bill No. 5155.
"Representative Rust, the Speaker is prepared to Rule on your Point of Order which challenges the Committee Amendment to Substitute Senate Bill No. 5155 as being beyond the Scope and Object of the bill.
"The title of Substitute Senate Bill No. 5155 is "AN ACT Relating to hydraulic permit exemptions from the shoreline management act."
"The title is somewhat broad as it relates to hydraulic permit exemptions. The bill adds a new section to chapter 90.85 RCW.
"The bill exempts certain public and private projects designed to improve fish or wildlife habitat or fish passage from the permit requirements of the Shoreline Management Act if all of certain conditions are met. One of the conditions set is that a local government has determined if the project is substantially consistent with its local shoreline master program. A local shoreline master program must be consistent with certain state guidelines.
"The Committee Amendment to Substitute Senate Bill No. 5155 would add a new section to chapter 90.58 RCW and create a new section. The amendment would add the requirement that under certain conditions the authority to approve hydraulic projects be delegated to certain local governments if an approved local shoreline master program exists for that jurisdiction and the jurisdiction requests such delegation.
"The object of Substitute Senate Bill No. 5155 is to establish a process and criteria for exempting certain projects from various permit requirements in order to promote the improvement of fish and wildlife habitat and fish passage while ensuring that various protective standards required under the shoreline management act are substantially complied with.
"The Committee Amendment deals with hydraulic permit exemptions from the shoreline management act and furthers the object of the bill to promote certain habitat and passage while ensuring compliance with certain state guidelines. The Speaker in unable to conclude that the Committee Amendment is beyond the scope and object of Substitute Senate Bill No. 5155.
"The Speaker finds that the committee amendment is not beyond the scope and object of the bill.
Representative Rust, Your Point of Order is not well taken.
