The commission must adopt by rule standard penalties for a rules violation. All fines collected must be deposited in the Washington horse racing commission operating account. The funds accrued by the assessed fines will be used to support nonprofit race meets as authorized in RCW 67.16.280(2). If no dates for nonprofit racing are requested or approved, the fines will remain in the Washington horse racing commission operating account.
