Statutes Authorizing the Agency to Adopt Rules on this Subject: RCW 88.02.070 and 88.02.100.
Reasons Why Rules on this Subject may be Needed and What They Might Accomplish: Rule making may be required to specify the vessel registration certificate must be carried on board the vessel for which it is issued at all times. We explain what must be on the registration but not where to carry this information. This will allow law enforcement another tool for boating safety.
