Purpose of the Proposal and Its Anticipated Effects, Including Any Changes in Existing Rules: Chapter 16-301 WAC provides general regulations for the seed industry, including definitions, lists of prohibited and restricted noxious weed seeds, and phytosanitary field inspection requirements, among other topics. Chapter 16-302 WAC provides regulations for seed certification, including seed certification standards and lists of prohibited and objectionable noxious weed seeds for the purpose of seed certification, among other topics. The purpose of this proposal is to:
| |
| • | Add Palmers amaranth to the prohibited noxious weed seed list in WAC 16-301-045 and the seed certification prohibited noxious weed seed list in WAC 16-302-100; |
| • | Change phytosanitary field inspection application due dates for fall plantings of western Washington crops from April 15 to April 1 in WAC 16-301-220 to more accurately reflect current industry practices; |
| • | Change phytosanitary field inspection application due dates for eastern Washington perennial crops other than corn from June 1 to April 15 in WAC 16-301-220 to more accurately reflect current industry practices; |
| • | Change phytosanitary field inspection application due dates for eastern Washington fields established with stecklings or transplants from June 1 to twenty-one days after planting in WAC 16-301-220 to more accurately reflect current industry practices; |
| • | Change notification due dates for seedling fields of beans to be harvested for certification the same year of planting from July 1 to twenty-one days after planting in WAC 16-302-050 to more accurately reflect current industry practices; |
| • | Change seed certification renewal application due dates for alfalfa and clover from June 15 to April 15 in WAC 16-302-050 to more accurately reflect current industry practices; |
| • | Change seed certification renewal application due dates for grass from May 1 to April 15 in WAC 16-302-050; |
| • | Add language to WAC 16-301-005 to include definitions for "open pollinated" and "top cross"; and |
| • | Change maximum percentage of inert material for prairie sand-reed in WAC 16-302-470 from 0.10 percent to ten percent. |
Reasons Supporting Proposal:
| |
| • | Adding Palmers amaranth to the prohibited noxious weed seed lists helps maintain Washington state's weed-free status for Palmers amaranth: Since Palmers amaranth is not currently on the prohibited noxious weed seed lists, it could potentially enter Washington state in seed lots originating from outside the state. Palmers amaranth is herbicide-resistant and difficult-to-control, therefore adding it to the noxious weed lists increases protections against it and protects the Washington seed industry. |
| • | By allowing applications for phytosanitary field inspection and seed certification to be received earlier and adjusting application due dates, the inspection timeline more accurately reflects crop maturity and growth cycle. Additionally, accepting applications earlier provides a larger inspection window and a longer opportunity for industry to correct issues within a field before harvest, and more accurately reflects current industry practices. |
| • | Adding definitions helps the rules better align with Association of Official Seed Certifying Agencies (AOSCA) standards. |
| • | Correcting errors in existing seed standards for prairie sand-reed eliminates confusion. |
Statutory Authority for Adoption: RCW
15.49.005, [15.49].021, [15.49].310, [15.49].370, and chapter
34.05 RCW.
Rule is not necessitated by federal law, federal or state court decision.
Name of Proponent: Washington state department of agriculture, governmental.
Name of Agency Personnel Responsible for Drafting: Jeff Larsen, 1111 Washington Street S.E., Olympia, WA 98504, 360-902-1960; Implementation and Enforcement: Victor Shaul, 21 North 1st Avenue, Suite 203, Yakima, WA 98902, 509-249-6950.
A school district fiscal impact statement is not required under RCW
28A.305.135.
A cost-benefit analysis is not required under RCW
34.05.328. The Washington state department of agriculture is not a listed agency under RCW
34.05.328 (5)(a)(i).
This rule proposal, or portions of the proposal, is exempt from requirements of the Regulatory Fairness Act because the proposal:
Is exempt under RCW
19.85.025(3) as the rules are adopting or incorporating by reference without material change federal statutes or regulations, Washington state statutes, rules of other Washington state agencies, shoreline master programs other than those programs governing shorelines of statewide significance, or, as referenced by Washington state law, national consensus codes that generally establish industry standards, if the material adopted or incorporated regulates the same subject matter and conduct as the adopting or incorporating rule; and rules only correct typographical errors, make address or name changes, or clarify language of a rule without changing its effect.
Explanation of exemptions: The portion of the proposed amendment regarding correcting errors in existing seed standards for prairie sand-reed in WAC 16-302-470 only makes corrections to typographical errors without changing the effect of the rule. This change will provide clarity and eliminate potential confusion for industry stakeholders trying to understand and apply program requirements. The portion of the proposed amendment regarding adding definitions to WAC 16-301-005 incorporates national consensus codes of AOSCA.
The proposed rule does not impose more-than-minor costs on businesses. Following is a summary of the agency's analysis showing how costs were calculated. Adding Palmers amaranth to the noxious weed seed lists in WAC 16-301-045 and 16-302-100 would not increase costs to businesses, whereas not adding it to these lists would cause farmers to incur additional costs to control it if introduced into Washington state in a lot of seed.
Adjusting due dates in WAC 16-301-200 and 16-302-050 would not increase costs to businesses. The proposed due dates benefit industry by providing more flexibility for when crops can be planted, as well as increasing the amount of time industry has to resolve identified field issues prior to harvest. Additionally, changing the due dates will improve the timeliness of service to the customers of the seed program.
