| Abstract | Long Description |
Under WAC 173-226-120, the Waste Discharge General Permit Program rule, an Economic Impact Analysis must be prepared on all draft general permits which are intended to directly cover small businesses. A small business is defined as a profit-seeking enterprise, which is independently owned and operated from all other businesses, and which has fifty or fewer employees. The EIA must describe the costs of complying with the rule. It must compare the compliance costs of small and large businesses to determine whether the rule disproportionately impacts small business. Disproportionate impacts of rules on small businesses must be mitigated if that is legal and feasible in meeting the stated objective of the statutes which are the basis of the proposed rule. |
