| Short Description |
When proposing a new administrative rule for consideration, the 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 173-160 WAC, Minimum Standards for Construction and Maintenance of Wells and Chapter 173-162 WAC, Rules and Regulations Governing the Regulation and Licensing of Well Contractors and Operators. The proposed rule amendments can be expected to affect well contractors and operators, landowners, and commerce. This small business economic impact analysis quantifies the rules impacts on both small and large businesses, and concludes that there is a disproportionate impact on small businesses. Compliance with these rules is not expected to lose sales or revenue for businesses | |
