Description | Ecology is obligated under Chapters 90.82, 90.22, and 90.54 RCW to set and protect instream flows at levels needed to protect fish and other environmental values. Rules setting instream flows may also include strategies or provisions for future uses of water. Ecology is proposing Chapters 173-525 and 173-526 WAC in order to fulfill these obligations. The economic analysis described in this document is part of the rule-making process. Ecology is issuing this preliminary joint Cost Benefit Analysis (CBA) and Least Burdensome Alternative Analysis, under Chapter 34.05 RCW, and Maximum Net Benefit Analysis (MNB), under RCW 90.54.020 (2). Ecology will use the information developed in these analyses to ensure that the rules are consistent with legislative policy. Ecology has also developed and issued a Small Business Economic Impact Statement (SBEIS) as part of its rule-making process. |
