DEPARTMENT OF

FISH AND WILDLIFE

[ Order 07-130 -- Filed June 27, 2007, 3:36 p.m. , effective June 27, 2007, 3:36 p.m. ]

     Effective Date of Rule: Immediately.

     Purpose: Amend hunting rules.

     Citation of Existing Rules Affected by this Order: Repealing WAC 232-28-35300B; and amending WAC 232-28-353.

     Statutory Authority for Adoption: RCW 77.12.047.

     Under RCW 34.05.350 the agency for good cause finds that immediate adoption, amendment, or repeal of a rule is necessary for the preservation of the public health, safety, or general welfare, and that observing the time requirements of notice and opportunity to comment upon adoption of a permanent rule would be contrary to the public interest.

     Reasons for this Finding: A date change is necessary to accommodate the permit hunt and also resolves a conflict with another hunt in the same location. There is insufficient time to promulgate rules.

     Number of Sections Adopted in Order to Comply with Federal Statute: New 0, Amended 0, Repealed 0; Federal Rules or Standards: New 0, Amended 0, Repealed 0; or Recently Enacted State Statutes: New 0, Amended 0, Repealed 0.

     Number of Sections Adopted at Request of a Nongovernmental Entity: New 0, Amended 0, Repealed 0.

     Number of Sections Adopted on the Agency's Own Initiative: New 0, Amended 1, Repealed 1.
