WSR 03-20-034

PROPOSED RULES

NOXIOUS WEED CONTROL BOARD


[ Filed September 23, 2003, 1:56 p.m. ]

     Original Notice.

     Preproposal statement of inquiry was filed as WSR 03-10-012.

     Title of Rule: Chapter 16-750 WAC, State noxious weed list and schedule of monetary penalties.

     Purpose: The state Noxious Weed Control Board proposes its annual amendment to the state noxious weed list.

     Statutory Authority for Adoption: Chapter 17.10 RCW.

     Statute Being Implemented: Chapter 17.10 RCW.

     Summary: Add five plants to the noxious weed list. Change the geographic areas in which several Class B noxious weeds must be controlled. Change myrtle spurge from a Class C to a Class B noxious weed.

     Reasons Supporting Proposal: Hoary alyssum, queen-devil hawkweed, Bohemian knotweed, common groundsel and hairy willow-herb have been discovered in this state, and have been found to be highly destructive, competitive or difficult to control, so their addition to the noxious weed list is proposed. Distribution data indicated that some control areas should be amended, and that myrtle spurge should be a Class B noxious weed.

     Name of Agency Personnel Responsible for Drafting, Implementation and Enforcement: Steve McGonigal, 1111 Washington Street, Olympia, WA 98504-2560, (360) 902-2053.

     Name of Proponent: Washington State Noxious Weed Control Board, governmental.

     Rule is not necessitated by federal law, federal or state court decision.

     Explanation of Rule, its Purpose, and Anticipated Effects: The state noxious weed list provides the basis for noxious weed control efforts by county noxious weed control boards, weed districts, the state weed board and the Washington State Department of Agriculture, under the auspices of chapter 17.10 RCW. The effect of the state noxious weed list is to prioritize control of noxious weed species statewide, concentrating on prevention and early detection, while still allowing for local program flexibility.

     Proposal Changes the Following Existing Rules: See amendatory sections shown below. The proposal is to add two species to the B list, add three species to the C list and move one species from the C list to the B list. The proposal is also to change the designation areas for seven B weeds, five of which would have their designation areas enlarged and two of which would have their designation areas reduced.

     No small business economic impact statement has been prepared under chapter 19.85 RCW. Net economic impact of the proposed changes on small businesses would be negligible. No additions to the Class A noxious weed list are proposed. The two weeds being added to the Class B list, and the one weed being moved from the Class C to the Class B list, are designated for control only in areas where the plants are found to be of limited distribution. Adding plants to the Class C list does not mandate control or other regulatory changes.

     RCW 34.05.328 does not apply to this rule adoption. The Washington State Noxious Weed Control Board is not one of the agencies listed in this section.

     Hearing Location: Washington Cattlemen's Association, 1301 Dolarway, Ellensburg, WA, on November 18, 2003, at 1:30 p.m.

     Assistance for Persons with Disabilities: Contact Laurie Crose by October 28, TDD (360) 902-1996 or (360) 902-1976.

     Submit Written Comments to: Steve McGonigal, Washington State Noxious Weed Control Board, P.O. Box 42560, Olympia, WA 98504, fax (360) 902-2094, by November 11, 2003.

     Date of Intended Adoption: November 18, 2003.
