Topic:?Emergency (CR-103E) ? Factory Assembled Structures (FAS) Licensed Professional Plan Reviews
Brief Description:?This emergency rule allows the Factory Assembled Structure (FAS) Program to effectively approve plans for commercial coach trailers, factory-built housing and commercial structures, recreational park trailers, recreational vehicles, and conversion vendor units (food trucks and trailers) as required under RCWs 43.22.360 and 43.22.480. The rule language includes changes to chapters 296-150C and 296-150F WAC that clarify plan submission requirements.
