Part II: Narrative Explanation
II. A - Brief Description Of What The Measure Does That Has Fiscal Impact
Briefly describe by section number, the significant provisions of the bill, and any related workload or policy assumptions, that have revenue or
expenditure impact on the responding agency.
This bill aims to increase the transparency of state regulatory inspections/audits of businesses and professions by
requiring state regulatory agencies to provide clear and sufficient information regarding the inspection/audit
process to the businesses and professions they regulate.
JLARC EVALUATION
JLARC is to evaluate state regulatory agencies’ performance and compliance with this chapter and survey
regulated businesses to obtain feedback on agencies’ implementation of this chapter.
BILL SUMMARY
Section 1: Outlines the intent of the bill. The Legislature finds that licensing and regulation of businesses and
professions requires periodic inspections and site visits by state agencies to determine that regulatory
requirements are being met. This bill seeks to clarify state agencies responsibilities during inspections by
requiring the agencies to provide clear and sufficient information about the inspection process to the regulated
businesses and professions.
Section 2: Directs each state regulatory agency that conducts audits, inspections or examinations of businesses
they regulate to provide the following information for each inspection:
(a) The purpose and legal authority for the inspection;
(b) Whether the inspection will be announced or unannounced;
(c) The responsibility of the inspector to present identification during the inspection;
(d) Contact information for an agency staff person who is available to answer questions about the inspection;
(e) Whether the business can remedy the violation during or after the inspection to avoid or mitigate
sanctions;
(f)How the business may provide past agency advice or interpretations it relied on for consideration in agency
decisions;
(g) Whether the business may designate a company representative and have legal or other technical
professionals participate in the inspection;
(h) How the business may respond to the outcome of an inspection, what the next steps are and an estimate
for future communication.
This section must be implemented by December 31, 2020.
The above requirements do not apply:
• In emergency situations
• In any criminal investigations or proceedings
• If they would create a conflict with federal or state law or unreasonably limit, delay, or prevent an agency
from performing its statutory duties.
Section 3: Defines “regulatory” and “regulatory agency.”
Section 4: Agencies must post a general description about the responsibilities specified in Section 2 of this act on
its website.

Section 5: Directs JLARC to review agencies’ performance and compliance with this chapter. The review must
include surveying regulated businesses to obtain their view on agency implementation and identifying how views
compare for small and large businesses.
The study is due by December 31, 2023. This section expires July 1, 2024.
Section 6: Sections 2 through 4 of this act constitute a new chapter in Title 18 RCW.
II. B - Cash receipts Impact
Briefly describe and quantify the cash receipts impact of the legislation on the responding agency, identifying the cash receipts provisions by section
number and when appropriate the detail of the revenue sources. Briefly describe the factual basis of the assumptions and the method by which the
cash receipts impact is derived. Explain how workload assumptions translate into estimates. Distinguish between one time and ongoing functions.
II. C - Expenditures
Briefly describe the agency expenditures necessary to implement this legislation (or savings resulting from this legislation), identifying by section
number the provisions of the legislation that result in the expenditures (or savings). Briefly describe the factual basis of the assumptions and the
method by which the expenditure impact is derived. Explain how workload assumptions translate into cost estimates. Distinguish between one time
and ongoing functions.
The report is to be completed by December 31, 2023.
JLARC staff will begin preliminary work on the program review in 2021. Initial work will focus on identifying
regulatory agencies and establishing contact with them to learn about their inspection and audit responsibilities.
Preliminary work will determine what data is currently available and what information will be collected by the
state regulatory agencies to determine performance and compliance with this chapter.
Beginning in 2023, JLARC staff will begin formal review of the program and begin the data collection process.
JLARC staff will review administrative records, inspection and audit reports and other documentation for
selected agencies to meet the objectives outlined in the bill.
The bill requires JLARC to survey regulated businesses and professions to obtain feedback and attitudes on
agency implementation of this chapter. Survey results must compare responses for small and large businesses. It
is unclear how many Washington businesses and professions are regulated and subject to inspections. Therefore,
JLARC anticipates engaging a survey expert to assist with survey development, implementation and analysis.
JLARC estimates its costs to be divided between a) JLARC staff costs, and b) the costs associated with engaging
external experts to assist JLARC staff in completing its assignment.
a) JLARC estimates its costs based on audit months (approximately $20,100 per audit month). JLARC estimates
it will take 21 audit months to complete the assignment required by this bill.
b) Consultant Costs: JLARC anticipates engaging a survey expert to design and conduct a statewide survey of
regulated businesses and professions. We estimate consultant costs of $60,000.
JLARC assumes comparable consultant efforts and costs made available for previous studies, and estimated costs
reflect JLARC’s recent experience in contracting with external entities for similar work.
JLARC ASSUMES THAT THE ASSIGNMENT IN THIS PROPOSED BILL MAY REQUIRE ADDITIONAL
RESOURCES. JLARC WILL ASSESS ALL OF THE ASSIGNMENTS MANDATED IN THE 2020
LEGISLATIVE SESSION. BASED ON ALL LEGISLATION THAT IS PASSED, JLARC MAY
SUBSEQUENTLY DETERMINE THAT IT CAN ABSORB THE COSTS FOR THIS PROPOSED BILL IN ITS

BASE BUDGET, IF THE WORKLOAD OF OTHER ENACTED LEGISLATION DOES NOT EXCEED
CURRENT STAFFING LEVELS.
HOWEVER, ADDITIONAL RESOURCES TO COVER CONSULTANT COSTS OF $60,000 WOULD NEED
TO BE PROVIDED.
JLARC Audit Months: JLARC calculates its staff resources in "Audit Months" to estimate the time and effort to
undertake and complete its studies. An "Audit Month" reflects a JLARC analyst’s time for a month, together
with related administrative, support, and goods/services costs. JLARC’s anticipated 2019-21 costs are calculated
at approximately $20,100 per audit month.

Briefly describe by section number, the significant provisions of the bill, and any related workload or policy assumptions, that have revenue or

businesses using a standard letter. BORPELS could meet this requirement within existing staff resources, so the
agency does not anticipate a fiscal impact from this bill.

Part II: Narrative Explanation
II. A - Brief Description Of What The Measure Does That Has Fiscal Impact
Briefly describe by section number, the significant provisions of the bill, and any related workload or policy assumptions, that have revenue or
expenditure impact on the responding agency.
This bill sets parameters on the information state agencies must provide at each audit/inspection/examination of
the businesses and professions they regulate, as well as specifies information that must be available on their web
site. The department currently implements portions of these requirements. Implementing all of the requirements
can be done within existing resources, therefore no fiscal impact.

Part II: Narrative Explanation
II. A - Brief Description Of What The Measure Does That Has Fiscal Impact
Briefly describe by section number, the significant provisions of the bill, and any related workload or policy assumptions, that have revenue or
expenditure impact on the responding agency.
SB 6408 requires regulatory agencies to provide certain information at each audit, inspection, or examination,
and to post information about the responsibilities of the agency its website. Both the Environmental Public
Health and Health Services and Quality Assurance divisions within the Department of Health conduct audits and
inspections. Staff time to develop materials for posting on the agency’s website, to be shared at each audit and
inspection, and to provide the Joint Legislative Audit and Review Committee's evaluation can be performed
within existing resources. Therefore no fiscal impact is associated with this proposal.
II. B - Cash receipts Impact
Briefly describe and quantify the cash receipts impact of the legislation on the responding agency, identifying the cash receipts provisions by section
