YAKIMA VALLEY COMMUNITY COLLEGE
[ Filed January 12, 2012, 3:29 p.m. ] Subject of Possible Rule Making: Repeal of chapter 132P-20 WAC.
Statutes Authorizing the Agency to Adopt Rules on this Subject: Under RCW 28B.50.140 (7)(a) the board of trustees has rule-making authority for the college.

Instead, the subject of the rule, drug abuse, has been incorporated into the code of student rights and responsibilities (chapter 132P-33 WAC), the Drug-free Workplace Act, and other college procedures.
Other Federal and State Agencies that Regulate this Subject and the Process Coordinating the Rule with These Agencies: Rule changes will be coordinated with the assigned Washington state assistant attorney general's office.
Process for Developing New Rule: Agency study.
