Description The Administrative Procedure Act (Chapter 34.05 RCW) requires that, before adopting a significant legislative rule, Ecology must, "Determine that the probable benefits of the rule are greater than its probable costs, taking into account both the qualitative and quantitative benefits and costs and the specific directives of the statute being implemented." [RCW 34.05.328(1)(c)]. For the adopted amendments to the Air Quality Fee Rule, this means Ecology must estimate the impacts of the rule changes on individuals, businesses, and the public. This includes changes in costs and changes in the value of the services provided for the fees paid. This document provides the public with an overview of the methods Ecology used to perform its analysis, and the most likely impacts found.
