Credit Unions Rulemaking
Rulemaking is the process government agencies must use to create, modify, or repeal rules in the Washington Administrative Code (WAC).
Rules are regulations, standards, or other statements of general applicability adopted by an agency to either:
- Implement, interpret, or make specific a law enforced or administered by an agency, or
- Prescribe or interpret an agency policy, procedure or practice requirement binding on persons outside the agency.
Rules are valid and binding on the persons they affect, and have the force of law unless amended, revised, or unless a court of competent jurisdiction determines otherwise.
Below you will find information about current Division of Credit Unions (DCU) rulemaking activity.
Other Real Estate Owned (OREO)
Subject of possible rulemaking: Requirements and standards for state-chartered credit unions in the mitigation of losses for loans collateralized by real property, or real property acquired as a result of loan defaults, and the management, marketing, sales and accounting practices required when dealing with "other real estate owned," typically from foreclosed properties.

Rulemaking Steps
Generally, rulemaking takes place in three distinctive steps based on filings required by the Office of the Code Reviser:
- CR-101 Pre-proposal Statement of Inquiry. At this stage, proposed text is usually not available. Comment is invited on whether rules in the areas identified in the CR-101 are needed and, if so, the content of those rules.
- A CR-102 Rulemaking Proposal is filed if it is decided to proceed. Proposed text is filed with the CR-102 and a comment period and public hearing are scheduled.
- After the comment period and public hearing, a CR-103 Rulemaking Order will be filed if it is decided to proceed with the rule. The final text is included with the CR-103. The newly adopted rules are generally effective 31 days after filing with the Code Reviser.
Once a rule has been adopted, it becomes a part of the Washington Administrative Code (WAC).
