Company Names: Administrative - General

Repeal of the Commission's rules in Chapters 480-35 (Limousines), 480-69 (track 
Scales), and 480-150 (Economic Stabilization) of the Washington Administrative 
Code 

Staff:   Bob Wallis, Review Judge

Recommendation:

File a preproposal statement of inquiry in Docket A-970591 to initiate repeal 
of the Commission’s rules in Chapters 480-35 (Limousines), 480-69 (Track 
Scales), and 480-150 (Economic Stabilization) of the Washington Administrative 
Code.

Discussion:

Commission Staff has reviewed the Commission’s existing administrative code 
provisions in preparation of the Plan for review under Executive Order 97-02.  
Staff believes there are three chapters of the Washington Administrative Code 
which are unneeded. The chapters are Chapters 480-35 (Limousines), 480-69 
(Track Scales), and 480-150 (Economic Stabilization).

The functions addressed in chapters 480-35 (Limousines) and 480-69 (Track 
Scales) have been transferred to other agencies, and the subject of chapter 
480-150 (Economic Stabilization) involves a Federal program that is no longer 
in effect.

It therefore appears appropriate to take steps to repeal these chapters.
