2025 Invasive Species Taxonomy Corrections

Rule-making status: Pending
Rule-making reference: #P2025-10

Summary of proposed rule

The department is amending sections of WAC chapters 220-640, 220-300, and 220-320 by correcting typographic and taxonomic errors. This rule project is also reordering and alphabetizing listed species within these WAC chapters. 

Scope and rationale for proposed rule

The department was made aware of an error and misspelling within WAC 220-640-030. After further review, WDFW identified several other taxonomic and spelling reference errors in WAC 220. This rulemaking will correct the identified reference errors, in addition to reorganizing the structure for improved accessibility, understanding and legal compliance.
