FISH AND WILDLIFE

[ Order 00-115 -- Filed July 12, 2000, 4:02 p.m. , effective July 14, 2000, 12:01 a.m. ]

Date of Adoption: July 12, 2000.

Purpose: Amend personal use fishing rules.

Citation of Existing Rules Affected by this Order: Repealing WAC 232-28-61900P; and amending WAC 232-28-619.

Statutory Authority for Adoption: Section 7, chapter 107, Laws of 2000.

Under RCW 34.05.350 the agency for good cause finds that immediate adoption, amendment, or repeal of a rule is necessary for the preservation of the public health, safety, or general welfare, and that observing the time requirements of notice and opportunity to comment upon adoption of a permanent rule would be contrary to the public interest.

Reasons for this Finding: The Washington Department of Fish and Wildlife in cooperation with the Washington Department of Ecology and Resource Management, Inc., has scheduled Kress Lake for a second herbicide application of aquathol. There is insufficient time to promulgate permanent rules.
