(1) The powers established under RCW 90.48.260 shall be implemented by the department through the adoption of rules in every appropriate situation.

The council and the department shall each adopt, by rules, procedures which will provide maximum coordination and avoid duplication between the two agencies with respect to permits in carrying out the requirements of **this act including, but not limited to, monitoring and enforcement of certification agreements, and in qualifying for full participation in any such national system.
