Details

Labor & Industries (L&I) has adopted changes to the Factory Assembled Structures rules under chapters 296-49A, 296-150P, and 296-150R WAC. The changes affect L&I’s FAS Advisory Board, and distributing inspection insignia to manufacturers of recreational vehicles. These changes are necessary after passage of House Bill 1514 (HB 1514) and Senate Bill 5089 (SB 5089) that took effect July 23, 2023. A CR-103 Rulemaking Order was filed on June 18, 2024, under WSR 24-13-089. The rules take effect July 22, 2024.

L&I is also considering a fee increase by 6.40% to cover operating expenses for the Factory Assembled Structures (FAS) Program. A CR-101 Preproposal Statement of Inquiry was filed on June 4, 2024, under WSR 24-12-070. The fee increase is the maximum allowed by the state Office of Financial Management for fiscal year 2025. L&I plans to file the CR-102 Proposal on August 6, 2024. If adopted, the increased fees would take effect January 1, 2025.

Updates on the status of these rulemakings will be provided during the quarterly FAS Advisory Board meeting.
