NOTICE

     THIS RULE IS BEING PROPOSED UNDER AN EXPEDITED RULE-MAKING PROCESS THAT WILL ELIMINATE THE NEED FOR THE AGENCY TO HOLD PUBLIC HEARINGS, PREPARE A SMALL BUSINESS ECONOMIC IMPACT STATEMENT, OR PROVIDE RESPONSES TO THE CRITERIA FOR A SIGNIFICANT LEGISLATIVE RULE. IF YOU OBJECT TO THIS USE OF THE EXPEDITED RULE-MAKING PROCESS, YOU MUST EXPRESS YOUR OBJECTIONS IN WRITING AND THEY MUST BE SENT TO Lori Anderson, Public Disclosure Commission, P.O. Box 40908, Olympia, WA 98504-0908 or lori.anderson@pdc.wa.gov , AND RECEIVED BY May 8, 2012.

     Reasons Supporting Proposal: The public disclosure commission (PDC) is required to annually adjust the disclosure threshold contained in RCW 42.17A.250 [(1)](g).

The proposed amendment calculates the 2012 adjustment using the base amount of $2,550.
