The Following Sections are Proposed for Expedited Repeal: WAC 192-12-080 Workers to procure Social Security account numbers, subsections (1), (2), (3), (4), and (5).

Rules Proposed for Expedited Repeal Meet the Following Criteria: Other rules of the agency or of another agency govern the same activity as the rule, making the rule redundant.

Any person who objects to the repeal of the rule must file a written objection to the repeal within thirty days after publication of this preproposal statement of inquiry.

Address Your Objection to: George Mante, UI Tax Regulatory Reform Coordinator, UI Tax Administration, P.O. Box 9046, Olympia, WA 98507-9046, fax (360) 902-9556.

Reason the Expedited Repeal of the Rule is Appropriate: Federal statutes provide for this information from employers. This WAC is repetitive of existing federal law and has no basis in state statute.

In keeping with the given parameters of Governor Locke's Executive Order 97-02, WAC 192-12-080 should be repealed as redundant.
