Purpose of the Proposal and Its Anticipated Effects, Including Any Changes in Existing Rules: The developmental disabilities administration (DDA) is amending sections from chapter 388-828 WAC to align DDA's current supports intensity scale (SIS) with the American Association on Intellectual and Developmental Disabilities' (AAIDD) latest version of the supports intensity scale – adult version (SIS–A).
Reasons Supporting Proposal: These rules have not been updated since 2007 and amendments are necessary to align DDA's current SIS with the AAIDD's latest version of the SIS-A. The amendments clarify language and reorder the assessment questions without changing the effect of the rules. The text has been amended from the previous CR-102 filed as WSR 18-12-065 on June 1, 2018. A second public hearing is necessary to add more sections to the set of proposed rules. These amendments, like those in the first proposal, are not substantive; the algorithm in the assessment remains unchanged.
Statutory Authority for Adoption: RCW 71A.12.030.
Rule is not necessitated by federal law, federal or state court decision.
Name of Proponent: DSHS, governmental.
Name of Agency Personnel Responsible for Drafting: Chantelle Diaz, P.O. Box 45310, Olympia, WA 98504-5310, 360-407-1589; Implementation and Enforcement: Bob Morris, P.O. Box 45310, Olympia, WA 98504-5310, 360-407-1513.
A school district fiscal impact statement is not required under RCW 28A.305.135.
A cost-benefit analysis is not required under RCW 34.05.328. This rule making is exempt from cost-benefit analysis requirements because the proposed amendments, as described under RCW 34.05.328 (5)(b)(iv), clarify the language of the rule without changing its effect.
This rule proposal, or portions of the proposal, is exempt from requirements of the Regulatory Fairness Act because the proposal:
Is exempt under RCW 19.85.025(4) because the rules do not affect small businesses.
Explanation of exemptions: The proposed amendments impose no new or disproportionate costs on small businesses so a small business economic impact statement is not required.
