296-115

The purpose of this rulemaking is to update the appeal process to more accurately reflect the intent of ch. 88.04 RCW, the Charter Boat Safety Act and ch. 49.17 RCW. The penalty language is being changed to align the charter boat penalty structure with other DOSH penalties. A few requirements are being updated to make them consistent with current U.S. Coast Guard requirements under 46 CFR. Typographical errors in a couple of references are being corrected. The changes were adopted 10/1/2008 and became effective on 11/1/2008.25.
