Cap-and-Invest Program Updates and Linkage, Chapter 173-441 & 173-446 WAC
Rulemaking, community forum
May 5, 2025, 2:30 p.m. PT, Online webinar
Ecology is hosting a community forum for the Cap-and-Invest Program Updates and Linkage rulemaking.
We're seeking input from overburdened communities, environmental justice organizations, and other members of the public on environmental justice issues related to these rulemakings.
Background
Ecology is considering amendments to Chapter 173-446 WAC and Chapter 173-441 WAC to make improvements to the implementation of the Cap-and-Invest Program, facilitate the linkage of Washington’s carbon market with California-Québec carbon market, as well as make other necessary updates.
We originally announced the Cap-and-Invest Linkage rulemaking in April of 2024 (filed a CR-101). On March 31, 2025, we announced the Cap-and-Invest Program Updates and Linkage Rulemaking (filed a new CR-101) to address a broader set of Cap-and-Invest Program topics.
