WSR 14-14-095
PERMANENT RULES
TRANSPORTATION COMMISSION
[Filed June 30, 2014, 12:21 p.m., effective July 1, 2014]
Effective Date of Rule: July 1, 2014.
Other Findings Required by Other Provisions of Law as Precondition to Adoption or Effectiveness of Rule: These rate changes change starting on July 1, 2014, as required in RCW
47.56.785 and per the schedule created by the transportation commission.
Purpose: The commission must consider toll rates that will help maintain travel time, speed, and reliability on the SR 520 corridor and must set and adjust toll rates to generate revenue sufficient and necessary to cover costs and obligations described in RCW
47.56.830 and 47.56.850.
WAC 468-270-040, as adopted by the Washington state transportation commission on January 5, 2011, and filed under WSR 11-04-007, January 20, 2011, provides that "Starting July 1, 2012, the toll rates will increase two and one-half percent annually, subject to review and potential adjustment by the commission, in order to generate toll revenue sufficient to meet the costs and obligations listed in RCW
47.56.830 through 47.56.850."
This is a clarifying amendment that updates the toll rate tables in WAC 468-270-071 to reflect the average annual two and one-half percent increase adopted in 2011 and does not change the toll rules effect or otherwise make any substantive changes to the rule.
Citation of Existing Rules Affected by this Order: Amending 468-270-071.
Statutory Authority for Adoption: RCW
47.56.785, 47.56.795, 47.56.830, 47.56.850, 47.56.870.
