WSR 17-19-110 PROPOSED RULES NOXIOUS WEED CONTROL BOARD [Filed September 20, 2017, 9:58 a.m.] Original Notice. Preproposal statement of inquiry was filed as WSR 17-14-032. Title of Rule and Other Identifying Information: Chapter 16-750 WAC, State noxious weed list and schedule of monetary penalties, the Washington state noxious weed control board (WSNWCB) is proposing to amend the state noxious weed list for 2018. Specifically, the board is considering:
(1) Adding one Class A noxious weed;
(2) Adding two Class B noxious weeds;
(3) Adding three Class C noxious weeds;
(4) Reclassifying a Class A noxious weed to a Class B; and
(5) Amending the designation regions of six Class B noxious weeds. Hearing Location(s): On October 31, 2017, at 1:00 p.m., at the Wenatchee Convention Center, 201 North Wenatchee Avenue, Wenatchee, WA 98801. Date of Intended Adoption: November 17, 2017. Submit Written Comments to: Alison Halpern, WSNWCB, P.O. Box 42560, Olympia, WA 98504-2560, email ahalpern@agr.wa.gov or noxiousweeds@agr.wa.gov, fax 360-902-2094, by October 30, 2017. Assistance for Persons with Disabilities: Contact Susie Allen, phone 360-902-1901, TTY 800-833-6388, email SAllen@agr.wa.gov, by October 24, 2017. Purpose of the Proposal and Its Anticipated Effects, Including Any Changes in Existing Rules: The Washington state noxious weed list provides the basis for noxious weed control efforts for county noxious weed control boards and other entities. It also provides guidelines for WSNWCB. This proposal makes a few amendments to WAC 16-750-005, 16-750-011, and 16-750-015. Reasons Supporting Proposal: Under RCW 17.10.080, WSNWCB is charged with updating the state noxious weed list on an annual basis to ensure it accurately reflects the noxious weed control priorities and noxious weed distribution. Statutory Authority for Adoption: Chapter 17.10 RCW. Statute Being Implemented: Chapter 17.10 RCW. Rule is not necessitated by federal law, federal or state court decision. Name of Proponent: WSNWCB, governmental. Name of Agency Personnel Responsible for Drafting, Implementation, and Enforcement: Alison Halpern, 1111 Washington Street S.E., Olympia, WA 98504, 360-902-2053. A school district fiscal impact statement is not required under RCW 28A.305.135. A cost-benefit analysis is not required under RCW 34.05.328. WSNWCB is not one of the agencies listed in this section. The proposed rule does not impose more-than-minor costs to businesses. Following is a summary of the agency's analysis showing how costs were calculated. An online survey was emailed to about four hundred licensed nurseries and distributed to several nursery and agricultural industry associations to pass along to their members.
Participating nurseries do not appear to carry any of the proposed new noxious weeds, none of which are known for being ornamental species. None of the nurseries surveyed indicated the proposed changes would result in lost revenue or jobs.
All landowners, both public and private, are responsible for eradicating Class A noxious weeds and controlling Class B noxious weeds in areas where they have been designated. The proposed Class A noxious weed small-flowered jewelweed is only known to occur in two locations in King County, which do not appear to be on land owned by small businesses. The proposed Class B noxious weed European coltsfoot is only known to occur in a few locations in western Washington, specifically in riparian areas and disturbed roadside habitats in King County, Snohomish County, and at the Mount Rainier National Park in Pierce County, which are not known to be owned by small businesses. The proposed Class B noxious weed Malta starthistle is currently only known to occur on Cypress Island on state-managed land. While some small businesses indicated that they have some of the proposed new Class C noxious weeds on their land, the state weed board does not require the control of Class C noxious weeds.
The reclassification of the Class A noxious weed spurge flax eases landowner responsibilities from eradication to control, and landowners in Okanogan County, where this species has become more abundant, are not required to control it. Proposed undesignations of four Class B noxious weeds ease control requirements of these species. The three Class B noxious weeds may be designated for control in counties where they are either absent or limited in distribution, so small business[es] in these counties should not be faced with more than minor costs to control those noxious weeds.
Based upon the above analysis, WSNWCB concludes that direct minor costs, if any, imposed would affect less than ten percent of small businesses and would not exceed $100 in lost sales or revenue as a direct result of these proposed rule-making changes. Nor would any of these amendments to the noxious weed list directly cause the creation of or loss of any jobs. WSNWCB concludes that small businesses will not be disproportionately impacted, nor would the proposed rule changes impose more than a minor cost on businesses in an industry. Therefore, we conclude that a formal small business economic impact statement is not required. The public may obtain a copy of the small business economic impact statement or the detailed cost calculations by contacting Alison Halpern, P.O.
