Intent-2008 c 37: "The legislature intends that the revised threshold adopted in 2005 for the department of ecology's construction stormwater general permit should not increase the scope of projects subject to state environmental policy act review. The department of ecology should pursue rule making to achieve the intent of this act." [ 2008 c 37 s 1.]
