(a) Addition or deletion of producers;
(b) Significant changes in collection service;
(c) Revision of the plan goals or schedule; or
(d) Change in processors used by the plan.
(3) Failure to provide service means implementation of the plan fails to do any of the following:
(a) Provide service in each county in the state;
(b) Provide service in each city or town with a population of ten thousand or greater; or
(c) Meet other plan requirements.
(4) Failure to provide service is a stewardship organization implementation violation. The department will document the violation and follow the procedures in WAC 173-910-330 and 173-910-340.
