Subject of Possible Rule Making: Chapter 308-56A WAC, Certificate of title -- Motor vehicles, etc., to include but not limited to WAC 308-56A-505 Elimination of manufactured home certificate of ownership (title) -- Elimination.
Statutes Authorizing the Agency to Adopt Rules on this Subject: RCW 65.20.090.
Reasons Why Rules on this Subject may be Needed and What They Might Accomplish: In the last amendment to WAC 308-56A-505(5) existing reference to a $25.00 fee was deleted although the regulation continued to indicate that a fee would be charged for title elimination.

Process for Developing New Rule: Negotiated rule making.
