The Following Sections are Proposed for Expedited Repeal: WAC 82-16-010, 82-16-020, 82-16-030, 82-16-040, 82-16-050, 82-16-060, 82-16-070, 82-16-080, 82-16-090, 82-16-100, 82-16-900, and 82-16-9001.

Rules Proposed for Expedited Repeal Meet the Following Criteria: Statute on which the rule was based has been repealed and has not been replaced by another statute providing statutory authority for the rule.

Any person who objects to the repeal of the rule must file a written objection to the repeal within thirty days after publication of this preproposal statement of inquiry.

Address Your Objection to: Douglas Mah, Rules Coordinator, Office of Financial Management, P.O. Box 43113, Olympia, WA 98504-3113.

Reason the Expedited Repeal of the Rule is Appropriate: These rules were filed in 1964 and established the process for claim payments by the Office of Financial Management from the tort claim revolving fund as directed in RCW 4.92.170. RCW 4.92.170 has been repealed and replaced with RCW 4.92.160 which authorizes the Department of General Administration, risk management to make claim payments from the tort claim revolving fund and RCW 4.92.130 which sets up the liability account for payment of claims under the self-insurance liability program.
