             WHEREAS, It is the policy of the Washington State Legislature to recognize excellence in all fields of endeavor; and

             WHEREAS, George Washington, the first President of these great United States of America, epitomizes the very highest level of excellence; and

             WHEREAS, George Washington's accomplishments and contributions as a native son of the original American Colonies, from Westmoreland, Virginia, were kindled and sparked by the original pioneering spirit; and

             WHEREAS, George Washington was well-rounded in all endeavors perhaps best illustrated by his commitment to education, where building upon valued home tutoring by his mother, Mary Ball Washington, he finished his educational studies at the venerable institution of William and Mary College, Williamsburg, Virginia, of which he later became its first Chancellor; and

             WHEREAS, George Washington's brave and principled leadership was indispensable in our nation's early bid for freedom as he valiantly served as the Commander-in-Chief of the Continental Army during the Revolutionary War, where challenges of every nature, from the cruel and unrelenting hardships faced and endured by the Continental Army at Valley Forge in 1777 to the predicament of overwhelming British forces, were compellingly vanquished by loyalty to cause, strength of purpose, nurture from the vision of the birth of a great and lasting nation and the unwavering assurance of the blessings of providence for those with the fortitude to fight for liberty, justice and freedom; and

             WHEREAS, George Washington, following the triumphant victory of the Continental Army, continued his inspirational leadership and service to his countrymen by presiding over the Constitutional Convention in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania in 1787, wherein the greatest charter ever conceived and created was commissioned as the Constitution of the United States of America and later adopted and ratified by the several states to form the union of these great United States of America; and

             WHEREAS, George Washington resolutely again answered the call of his countrymen by faithfully serving our nation as the first President of these great United States of America, thus ensuring the continued path of a nation born to secure the blessing of liberty and providence for posterity; and

             WHEREAS, This great state of Washington, established in 1889, bears and honors the name of George Washington and the vignette of his likeness prominently and nobly displayed on the state seal;

             NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED, That the House of Representatives hereby honor George Washington, the first President of these great United States, and a founding father of this great nation, for his immeasurable and uncounted contributions for the cause of liberty and freedom.


             Representative Backlund moved adoption of the resolution.


             Representative Backlund spoke in favor of the resolution.


             House Resolution No. 4708 was adopted.


             HOUSE RESOLUTION NO. 96-4707, by Representatives Backlund, Pelesky, L. Thomas, Hatfield, Robertson, Thompson, Dyer and B. Thomas


             WHEREAS, It is the policy of the Washington State Legislature to recognize excellence in all fields of endeavor; and

             WHEREAS, Abraham Lincoln, the sixteenth President of these great United States, through his selfless service and sacrifice to this great country demonstrated the very highest level of excellence in all matters, public and private; and

             WHEREAS, Abraham Lincoln's conduct, actions, and decisions were faithfully governed by an unerring and unwavering devotion to absolute personal and public integrity, acquiring the deserving nickname "Honest Abe"; and

             WHEREAS, Abraham Lincoln unequivocally exemplified that freedom is the richest fountain of unlimited opportunity and limitless achievement, where from humble beginnings, being raised in a log cabin and learning the values and rewards of hard work as a young man splitting rails, he later achieved great stature from his selfless public service contributions as a member of the Illinois State Legislature, as a member of the bench in the Eighth Circuit, as a member of the United States Congress, and later as the President of these great United States of America; and

             WHEREAS, Abraham Lincoln, as President of these great United States, was reverently guided by and understood that efforts and achievements of men and nations are only possible because of the grace and hand of providence, illustrated by his annual Proclamations of National Prayer Day, which humbly thanked the will of God for our nation's blessings, and by his own words inscribed on his memorial in our nation's capitol "That this nation, under God, shall have a new birth of freedom, and that government of the people, by the people, for the people, shall not perish from the earth"; and

             WHEREAS, Abraham Lincoln demonstrated unimpeachable leadership and moral courage wherein in 1862 for the greater good of humanity he issued the famous Emancipation Proclamation Act, adopted by the United States Congress later that year, which ensured the opportunities of freedom for all persons without regard to race or color; and

             WHEREAS, Abraham Lincoln, as President of these great United States of America after only one month, resolutely led our nation through the struggle of the Civil War, which although taking a great toll in human loss and suffering illuminated as a shining example that the foundations of a nation built upon justice and freedom will endure and vanquish any storm untarnished and vital for posterity; and

             WHEREAS, Abraham Lincoln, with the cruel precision of an assassin's bullet, suffered an untimely death just five days after bringing the Civil War to a close, tragically ending a life which was committed to selfless public service and the noblest causes of justice, freedom, and liberty for all persons which enured innumerable benefits to these great United States;

             NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED, That the House of Representatives honor Abraham Lincoln, the sixteenth President of these great United States.


             House Resolution No. 4707 was adopted.

             WHEREAS, The stalwart and steadfast mettle of the American worker has made our nation an extraordinary model for the world to follow; and

             WHEREAS, The very notion of the workplace as a time and setting for cooperation and esprit de corps is as uniquely American as the stirring words of The Star-Spangled Banner; and

             WHEREAS, In our own state of Washington, the heritage of forthright labor-management cooperation in the development of our ports, industries, and farms has been instrumental in cultivating and sustaining the treasured lifestyle we enjoy today; and

             WHEREAS, Even as our bounteous and beautiful natural resources entice visitors from far and wide, so the Evergreen State's reformative nand forward-thinking policies concerning the ultimately symbiotic relationship of labor and business have been a harbinger for other governments far and wide; and

             WHEREAS, In 1891, in the very first session of the Washington State Legislature, Labor Day was established as a legal holiday; and

             WHEREAS, Gordon Rice started the state's first weekly newspaper for working people in 1894; C.B. Kegley, the President-elect of the Washington State Grange in 1904 spoke up at that year's state Grange convention for cooperation with working peoples' organizations in striving toward better conditions for farms and farming people, and John E. "Dynamite Jack" Campbell became the first trade-union leader elected to the Washington State Legislature in 1906; and

             WHEREAS, In 1911, Washington became the first state in the nation to pass a Workers' Compensation Act establishing security and protection for the working people of our state; and

             WHEREAS, In 1912, our state, ahead of the federal government, established an eight-hour workday for women and minors, and in 1914, Labor Commissioner Edward Olsen began strict enforcement of the munificent new law; and

             WHEREAS, A state law in 1943 ordered equal pay for women here in Washington, once again advancing our state to the front rank of an ongoing movement accentuating reason, justice, and fair-mindedness; and

             WHEREAS, The contributions of Washington men and women in the 20th century have been integral to the nation in times of war through their work in industrial concerns such as the shipyards and aerospace manufacturing; and

             WHEREAS, The historic diversity of the Washington workforce positions our state to prevail in its rightful claim for strong trade participation in the community of Pacific Rim nations; and

             WHEREAS, The opportunity to work for a living is in its ideal a providence truly open for all and biased against none; and

             WHEREAS, Remarkable personages through the ages have submitted testimony to the exalted caliber and sanctity of a citizen's chosen professional enterprise; and

             WHEREAS, Our own national poet, Maya Angelou, an eminent and hard-working American herself, has defined work as: "Something made greater by ourselves and in turn that makes us greater"; and

             WHEREAS, The Legislature, in all likelihood, will not be assembled in session on Monday, September 2, when our great land will next pay formal tribute to the working families of the state and nation;

             NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED, That the House of Representatives salute the citizens whose trades, crafts, vocations, and professions have been indispensable to the enhancement of society; and

             BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED, That copies of this Resolution be immediately transmitted by the Chief Clerk of the House of Representatives to the Association of Washington Business, to the Washington State Labor Council, and to any other individual or entity deemed an appropriate recipient.

             HOUSE RESOLUTION NO. 96-4699, by Representatives Talcott, Pelesky, L. Thomas and Chandler


             WHEREAS, It is the policy of the Washington State Legislature to honor excellence in all fields of endeavor; and

             WHEREAS, Organized athletics promote, in part, the values necessary for success in life and scholarship because participation, contribution, and success in athletics hones, develops, and cultivates perseverance, dedication, sacrifice, teamwork, integrity, sportsmanship, loyalty, and spirit; and

             WHEREAS, Built upon these core values, the Curtis High School Vikings football team has exhibited the highest standards of achievement as Curtis became the state's first Class AAA football team to capture three state titles, adding to the championships in 1989 and 1990; and

             WHEREAS, The Vikings also established three compelling new state records; to wit: Setting the "Most Points Scored" record in a single game with the new Vikings' record of forty-nine points; setting the "Largest Margin of Victory" record with the new Vikings' record of a forty-two point margin of victory; setting the "Most Points Scored in a Single Quarter" record with the new Vikings' record of twenty-eight points scored in a single quarter; and

             WHEREAS, Although the Vikings' victory is due to the contribution of each and every team member, coach, and staff, the exceptional contributions of certain individual team members warrant special portrayal; and

             WHEREAS, Quarterback Matt Salzman especially contributed to the Vikings' victory by completing three remarkable touchdown passes, one for sixty yards to running back Jake Sampson, one for twenty yards to tight end Jeff Cowart, and one for thirteen yards to wide receiver Ryan Wakefield; and

             WHEREAS, Running back Jake Sampson especially contributed to the Vikings' victory by receiving two passes for sixty-four yards and a touchdown pass, but also scored the final touchdown on the final play of the third quarter with a blazing forty-four yard dash; and

             WHEREAS, Running back Elijah Baker especially contributed to the Vikings' victory by carrying the ball six times for a total of one hundred fifty-three yards and scoring a touchdown on an eighty yard scamper late in the third quarter;

             (12) "Plant pests" means, but is not limited to, any living stage of any insects, mites, nematodes, slugs, snails, protozoa, or other invertebrate animals, bacteria, fungi, other parasitic plants or reproductive parts thereof, viruses, or any organisms similar to or allied with any of the foregoing, or any infectious substance, which can directly or indirectly injure or cause disease or damage in any plant or parts thereof, or any processed, manufactured, or other products of plants.

             (3) By rule adopt the PMO, DMO, and supplemental documents by reference to establish requirements for grade A pasteurized and grade A raw milk.

             (4) Adopt rules establishing standards for grade A pasteurized and grade A raw milk that are more stringent than the PMO based upon current industry or public health information for the enforcement of this chapter whenever he or she determines that any such rules are necessary to carry out the purposes of this section and RCW 15.36.481. The adoption of rules under this chapter, or the holding of a hearing in regard to a license issued or that may be issued under this chapter are subject to the applicable provisions of chapter 34.05 RCW, the administrative procedure act.

             (5) By rule, certify an officially designated laboratory to analyze milk for standard of quality, adulteration, contamination, and unwholesomeness.

             (g) Procedures in making of pesticide recommendations;

             (h) Adopting a list of restricted use pesticides for the state or for designated areas within the state if the director determines that such pesticides may require rules restricting or prohibiting their distribution or use.

Grant funds shall not supplant funds for other organization programs.

             The funds will be available to nonprofit shooting organizations, school districts, and state, county, or local governments on a match basis. All entities receiving matching funds must be open on a regular basis and usable by law enforcement personnel or the general public who possess Washington concealed pistol licenses or Washington hunting licenses or who are enrolled in a firearm safety class.

             Applicants for a grant from the firearms range account shall provide matching funds in either cash or in-kind contributions. The match must represent one dollar in value for each one dollar of the grant except that in the case of a grant for noise abatement or safety improvements the match must represent one dollar in value for each two dollars of the grant. In-kind contributions include but are not limited to labor, materials, and new property. Existing assets and existing development may not apply to the match.

             Applicants other than school districts or local or state government must be registered as a nonprofit or not-for-profit organization with the Washington secretary of state ((and the United States internal revenue service)). The organization's articles of incorporation must contain provisions for the organization's structure, officers, legal address, and registered agent.

             Organizations requesting grants must provide the hours of range availability for public and law enforcement use. The fee structure will be submitted with the grant application.

             Any nonprofit organization or agency accepting a grant under this program will be required to pay back the entire grant amount to the firearms range account if the use of the range facility is discontinued less than ten years after the grant is accepted.

             Entities receiving grants must make the facilities for which grant funding is received open for hunter safety education classes and firearm safety classes on a regular basis for no fee.

             Government units or school districts applying for grants must open their range facility on a regular basis for hunter safety education classes and firearm safety classes.

             The interagency committee for outdoor recreation shall adopt rules to implement chapter 195, Laws of 1990, pursuant to chapter 34.05 RCW."

             (1) Contributions shall accrue and become payable by each employer (except employers as described in RCW 50.44.010 who have properly elected to make payments in lieu of contributions and those employers who are required to make payments in lieu of contributions) for each calendar year in which the employer is subject to this title at the rate established pursuant to chapter 50.29 RCW.

             In each rate year, the amount of wages subject to tax for each individual shall be one hundred fifteen percent of the amount of wages subject to tax for the previous year rounded to the next lower one hundred dollars: PROVIDED, That the amount of wages subject to tax in any rate year shall not exceed eighty percent of the "average annual wage for contributions purposes" for the second preceding calendar year rounded to the next lower one hundred dollars: PROVIDED FURTHER, That the amount subject to tax shall be twelve thousand dollars for rate year 1984 and ten thousand dollars for rate year 1985.

             In making computations under this section and RCW 50.29.010, wages paid based on services for employers making payments in lieu of contributions shall not be considered remuneration. Moneys paid from the fund, based on services performed for employers who make payments in lieu of contributions, which have not been reimbursed to the fund as of any June 30 shall be deemed an asset of the unemployment compensation fund, to the extent that such moneys exceed the amount of payments in lieu of contributions which the commissioner has previously determined to be uncollectible: PROVIDED, FURTHER, That the amount attributable to employment with the state shall also include interest as provided for in RCW 50.44.020.

             Contributions shall become due and be paid by each employer to the treasurer for the unemployment compensation fund in accordance with such regulations as the commissioner may prescribe, except as provided in subsection (2) of this section, and shall not be deducted, in whole or in part, from the remuneration of individuals in employment of the employer. Any deduction in violation of the provisions of this section shall be unlawful.

             (a) The employer may elect to defer for up to six months the report under RCW 50.12.070 and the payment of contributions required under this section for the quarter ending March 31, 1996. The employer electing this option must notify the commissioner in writing by April 30, 1996;

             (b) Any report and payment of contributions deferred under this subsection is due no later than October 31, 1996; and

             Sec. 902. RCW 51.16.060 and 1985 c 315 s 1 are each amended to read as follows:

             (1) Every employer not qualifying as a self-insurer, shall insure with the state and, except as provided in subsection (2) of this section, shall, on or before the last day of January, April, July and October of each year thereafter, furnish the department with a true and accurate payroll for the period in which workers were employed by it during the preceding calendar quarter, the total amount paid to such workers during such preceding calendar quarter, and a segregation of employment in the different classes established pursuant to this title, and shall pay its premium thereon to the appropriate fund. Premiums for a calendar quarter, whether reported or not, shall become due and delinquent on the day immediately following the last day of the month following the calendar quarter. The sufficiency of such statement shall be subject to the approval of the director: PROVIDED, That the director may in his or her discretion and for the effective administration of this title require an employer in individual instances to furnish a supplementary report containing the name of each individual worker, his or her hours worked, his or her rate of pay and the class or classes in which such work was performed: PROVIDED FURTHER, That in the event an employer shall furnish the department with four consecutive quarterly reports wherein each such quarterly report indicates that no premium is due the department may close the account: PROVIDED FURTHER, That the department may promulgate rules and regulations in accordance with chapter 34.05 RCW to establish other reporting periods and payment due dates in lieu of reports and payments following each calendar quarter, and may also establish terms and conditions for payment of premiums and assessments based on estimated payrolls, with such payments being subject to approval as to sufficiency of the estimated payroll by the department, and also subject to appropriate periodic adjustments made by the department based on actual payroll: AND PROVIDED FURTHER, That a temporary help company which provides workers on a temporary basis to its customers shall be considered the employer for purposes of reporting and paying premiums and assessments under this title according to the appropriate rate classifications as determined by the department: PROVIDED, That the employer shall be liable for paying premiums and assessments, should the temporary help company fail to pay the premiums and assessments under this title.

             (2) For the purposes of paying premiums during calendar year 1996, the following shall apply to an employer whose place of business is located in a county that the governor has declared to be in a disaster area as a result of flooding in 1996 and whose business is permanently or temporarily closed, or the operations of the business are severely curtailed, for reasons that are directly attributable to flood damage:

             (a) The employer may elect to defer for up to six months the report and the payment of premiums required under this section for the quarter ending March 31, 1996. The employer electing this option must notify the department in writing by April 30, 1996;

             (b) Any report and payment of premiums deferred under this subsection is due no later than October 31, 1996; and

             (c) If the report is made and the deferred premiums are fully paid by October 31, 1996, penalties may not be assessed and interest may not accrue as a result of the deferral permitted under this subsection.


             Sec. 903. RCW 82.32.045 and 1983 2nd ex.s. c 3 s 63 are each amended to read as follows:

             (1) Except as otherwise provided in this chapter, payments of the taxes imposed under chapters 82.04, 82.08, 82.12, 82.14, and 82.16 RCW, along with reports and returns on forms prescribed by the department, are due monthly within twenty-five days after the end of the month in which the taxable activities occur.

             (2) The department of revenue may relieve any taxpayer or class of taxpayers from the obligation of remitting monthly and may require the return to cover other longer reporting periods, but in no event may returns be filed for a period greater than one year. For these taxpayers, tax payments are due on or before the last day of the month next succeeding the end of the period covered by the return.

             (3) The department of revenue may also require verified annual returns from any taxpayer, setting forth such additional information as it may deem necessary to correctly determine tax liability.

             (4) For the purposes of paying taxes imposed under chapter 82.04 RCW during calendar year 1996, the following shall apply to a taxpayer whose place of business is located in a county that the governor has declared to be in a disaster area as a result of flooding in 1996 and whose business is permanently or temporarily closed, or the operations of the business are severely curtailed, for reasons that are directly attributable to flood damage:

             (a) The taxpayer may elect to defer for up to six months any returns and the payment of taxes required under chapter 82.04 RCW for reporting periods ending March 31, 1996. The taxpayer electing this option must notify the department in writing by the date on which the returns and taxes would otherwise be due under this section;

             (b) Any return and payment of taxes deferred under this subsection is due no later than October 31, 1996; and

The information services board shall ensure that the benefits of purchasing additional hardware to expand the current telecommunications network versus leasing network services from the department of information services or from private sector providers are considered in approving and implementing the Washington higher education network.

             (3) The information services board shall provide formal project approval and oversight during the period of development and implementation. In providing project approval, the information services board shall use a two-step process. First, a request or requests for proposals shall be developed and approved in accordance with information services board guidelines. Second, after receipt of proposals from the private sector and thorough analysis by information services board staff, following the guidelines of the information services board and instructions contained in this section, acquisition approval by the information services board shall be considered.

             (4) Before a public institution of higher education may expend any of the funds provided in this section, the following shall occur: (a) a process to develop a programming and location plan shall be developed by participating education institutions in collaboration with and approval by the higher education coordinating board; and (b) a governance structure for the Washington higher education network shall be approved by the higher education coordinating board.

             (5) All moneys appropriated in this section shall be held in allotment reserve until (a) the higher education coordinating board has approved a preliminary statewide program plan including a governance structure for the Washington higher education network and (b) the information services board has approved the network necessary to implement the telecommunications plan described in subsection (2) of this section. The office of financial management shall approve allotments of only those funds necessary to acquire and implement the Washington higher educations network approved by the information services board. Any fund in excess of those required to acquire and implement the Washington higher education network shall not be allotted and shall be held in reserve.

             (7) Expenditures from this appropriating in this section shall be for capital purposes and shall comply with the bondability guidelines published by the office of financial management in the capital budget instructions manual."
