         Title of Rule and Other Identifying Information: WAC 232-28-353 2008 Deer special permits and 232-28-354 2008 Elk special permits.

         Hearing Location(s): Natural Resources Building, Room 172, 1111 Washington Street S.E., Olympia, WA 98501, (360) 902-2515, on September 5-6, 2008, at 8:00 a.m.

         Date of Intended Adoption: September 5-6, 2008.

         Purpose of the Proposal and Its Anticipated Effects, Including Any Changes in Existing Rules: WAC 232-28-353, this makes prior emergency rule changes permanent. The purpose of this change is to close public hunts for 2008 on the Yakima Training Center. The anticipated effect is slightly less recreational deer hunting opportunity in Region 3. No anticipated changes to deer management objectives.

         WAC 232-28-354, this makes prior emergency rule changes permanent. The purpose of this change is to close public hunts for 2008 on the Yakima Training Center. The anticipated effect is slightly less recreational elk hunting opportunity in Region 3. No anticipated changes to elk management objectives.

         Reasons Supporting Proposal: WAC 232-28-353 and 232-28-354, the United States Army's training schedule on the Yakima Training Center has changed and will not allow public access. As a result, the department will not be able to conduct any public hunts on their facility for this year's hunting season.

         Statutory Authority for Adoption: RCW 77.12.047, 77.12.020, 77.12.570, 77.12.210.

         Statute Being Implemented: RCW 77.12.047, 77.12.020,

    77.12.570, 77.12.210.

         Rule is not necessitated by federal law, federal or state court decision.

         Name of Proponent: Washington fish and wildlife commission, governmental.

         Name of Agency Personnel Responsible for Drafting and Implementation: Dave Brittell, Natural Resources Building, Olympia, (306) 902-2504; and Enforcement: Bruce Bjork, Natural Resources Building, Olympia, (360) 902-2373.

         No small business economic impact statement has been prepared under chapter 19.85 RCW. These rules regulate recreational hunters and do not directly regulate small business.

         A cost-benefit analysis is not required under RCW 34.05.328. Not hydraulics rules.
