Title of Rule and Other Identifying Information: Chapter 296-874 WAC, Scaffolds.

     Purpose of the Proposal and Its Anticipated Effects, Including Any Changes in Existing Rules: On January 23, 2007, the department adopted changes to chapter 296-874 WAC, Scaffolds. The purpose of this rule making is to correct errors and to make housekeeping changes to keep this rule as-effective-as the federal equivalent.

     For example: In WAC 296-874-20052, the word "arrest" was removed from the existing rule and replaced with the word "restraint." We are correcting that error by adding the word "arrest" back into the rule, which keeps us as-effective-as the federal equivalent.

     In addition, we will be repealing the crawling board requirements in WAC 296-874-40016, and one crawling board requirement in WAC 296-874-20056, because they do not meet the requirements for the scaffolds rule, and already exist in the construction rule, chapter 296-155 WAC.

WAC 296-874-100 Scope.

•	Correcting a referenced WAC number.

WAC 296-874-20030 Make sure ramps and walkways used to access scaffolds meet these requirements.

•	Correcting a title to: "Working surfaces, guarding floors and wall openings."

WAC 296-874-20052 Provide fall protection for employees on scaffolds.

•	Adding the word "arrest" and removing the word "restraint."

WAC 296-874-20056 Provide specific fall protection for specific types of scaffolds.

•	Removing a requirement that does not belong in the rule.

WAC 296-874-40004 Prevent supported scaffolds from tipping.

•	Correcting the title of the illustration to match the actual requirement.

WAC 296-874-40006 Make sure supported scaffolds are properly supported.

•	Adding a reference.

WAC 296-874-40040 Meet these requirements when using tube and coupler scaffolds.

•	Removing an illustration that does not belong in this section of the rule.

WAC 296-874-500 Definitions.

•	Removing a definition (crawling board) that does not belong in the rule.

WAC 296-874-40016 Meet these requirements when using crawling boards (chicken ladders).

•	Repealing crawling board requirements from this chapter because they do not meet the requirements for the scaffolds rule, and already exist in the construction rule, chapter 296-155 WAC.

     Reasons Supporting Proposal: The department is expediting the rule making to correct errors and to make housekeeping changes to keep this rule as effective as the federal equivalent.

     Statutory Authority for Adoption: RCW 49.17.010, 49.17.050, 49.17.060.
