Abstract Long Description

When proposing a new administrative rule for consideration, Washington State Department of Ecology (Ecology) is required by RCW 19.85.030 to determine whether the rule will impose a disproportionate impact on small business. This document fulfills this requirement for the proposed amendments of Chapter 173-218 WAC -- Underground Injection Control Program, and Chapter 173-216 WAC--State Waste Discharge Permit Program.

The proposed rule amendments can be expected to affect municipalities, industry, and commerce. This small business economic impact analysis quantifies the rule impacts on both small and large businesses, and concludes that there is a disproportionate impact on small businesses.
