Washington’s notifiable conditions rule outlines requirements for reporting information that is necessary for public health officials to protect the public’s health by tracking communicable diseases and other conditions. During our April 8 rules hearing, Board members voted to continue their decision to adopt the proposed rule to our August meeting to give interested parties time to submit comments. Many agencies, organizations, and partners that are involved in the COVID-19 response would also be impacted by the proposed rule changes. Board members directed staff to file an updated CR-102 and notify interested parties of the extended comment period. A CR-102 tells the public that a rule is being revised and invites comments on the proposed rule language. You can access the proposed rule changes as well as other materials related to the rule on the April 8 meeting web page and the rule web page. You may also subscribe to our email distribution list to receive notices and updates about the rule.
