BE IT ENACTED BY THE LEGISLATURE OF THE STATE OF WASHINGTON:

NEW SECTION. Sec. 1. (1) A person who, with intent to deprive the owner or owner's agent, wrongfully obtains anhydrous ammonia, is guilty of theft of anhydrous ammonia.

(2) Theft of anhydrous ammonia is a class C felony.

NEW SECTION. Sec. 2. A person is guilty of the crime of unlawful storage of anhydrous ammonia if the person possesses anhydrous ammonia in a container that is not designed and manufactured to hold anhydrous ammonia. Violation of this section is a class C felony.

NEW SECTION. Sec. 3. Any damages arising out of the unlawful possession of, storage of, or tampering with anhydrous ammonia or anhydrous ammonia equipment shall be the sole responsibility of the unlawful possessor, storer, or tamperer. In no case shall liability for damages arising out of the unlawful possession of, storage of, or tampering with anhydrous ammonia or anhydrous ammonia equipment extend to the owner, installer, maintainer, designer, manufacturer, or seller of the anhydrous ammonia or anhydrous ammonia equipment, unless such damages arise out of the owner, installer, maintainer, designer, manufacturer, or seller's acts or omissions that constitute negligent misconduct to abide by the laws regarding anhydrous ammonia possession and storage.

Sec. 4. RCW 69.50.440 and 1997 c 71 s 3 are each amended to read as follows:

It is unlawful for any person to possess ephedrine ((or)), pseudoephedrine, or anhydrous ammonia with intent to manufacture methamphetamine. Any person who violates this section is guilty of a crime and may be imprisoned for not more than ten years, fined not more than twenty-five thousand dollars, or both. Three thousand dollars of the fine may not be suspended. As collected, the first three thousand dollars of the fine must be deposited with the law enforcement agency having responsibility for cleanup of laboratories, sites, or substances used in the manufacture of the methamphetamine. The fine moneys deposited with that law enforcement agency must be used for such clean-up cost.

Sec. 5. RCW 9.94A.320 and 1999 c 352 s 3, 1999 c 322 s 5, and 1999 c 45 s 4 are each reenacted and amended to read as follows:
