Corrected Rulemaking Notice: Draft rules for climate planning and growth management
Registration is required for public hearing
The Department of Commerce filed draft rules (CR-102) <https://links-2.govdelivery.com/CL0/https:%2F%2Fdeptofcommerce.app.box.com%2Fs%2Fox6prdcwbks3bchc0ugrx9tyujwsy7ep/1/010101979dd6ae07-052c0529-f5

These rules would implement HB 1181 <https://links-2.govdelivery.com/CL0/https:%2F%2Fapp.leg.wa.gov%2Fbillsummary%3FBillNumber=1181%26Initiative=false%26Year=2023/1/010101979dd6ae07-052c0529-f5d6-439
a-9e60-665f8adba9c3-000000/8pCAADf8yyYQHT9sPoM5l8KmTbTd9QSX_X8-RNIaR8Q=410> (Chapter 228, Laws of 2023), which added a climate goal to the Growth Management Act and requires local comprehensive
plans to have a climate element, among other changes. Depending on the jurisdiction, the climate element must include one or both sub-elements to address community resilience to climate
change along with greenhouse gas emission reductions.
