Children's Administration

WAC 388-145-1325, 1400, 1420, 1635

The purpose is to update the DLR WACs with the current background check chapter 388-06A WAC. There are no anticipated effects to this change.

WAC 388-148-0465

WAC 388-148-0465 was replaced with 388-148-1615 (foster care) and 388-145-1815 (group care) when Children’s Administration Division of Licensed Resources revised all of their WACs in January 2015. Therefore, WAC 388-148-0465 needs to be repealed to eliminate duplication.

WAC 388-15-069

WAC 388-15-069 was recently amended in January 2015. During that review process the word "founded" was inadvertently left out. This change clarifies that CA staff will make an additional attempt via personal service when the CPS "founded" findings letter is returned and the department is actively working with that person. The January 2015 amendment as currently written has a significant fiscal impact on the agency and therefore this emergency amendment needs to be implemented immediately. Other minor editing changes are being made for consistency within the rule.

WAC 388-148-0455

WAC 388-148-0455 was replaced by WAC 388-145-1760 when Children’s Administration Division of Licensed Resources revised all of their WACs in January 2015. Therefore, WAC 388-148-0455 needs to be repealed to eliminate duplication.
