E-CORE TEAM: Electrical compliance, outreach, regulation, and education
What is the purpose of this team?
The E-CORE team focuses on contractors’ concerns with the underground economy. Legitimate contractors ask us to find unlicensed electrical contractors, uncertified electricians, and those who fail to get electrical permits. E-CORE will also make referrals to other department programs for violations of the general contracting, industrial insurance, and jobsite safety laws.
We need your help
The E-CORE team needs good referrals from contractors and electricians competing with firms and individuals who are operating out of compliance. If you have verifiable information of unfair competition, illegal activities, or illegal work in progress, contact the E-CORE team member for one of the following areas:
- Puget Sound and NW Washington, Bob Matson , 206-835-1130 (office) or 360-471-0746 (cell).
- SW Washington, Charles Brinkmeyer, 360-902-4987 (office) or 360-471-0588 (cell).
- Eastern Washington, Phil Jordan, 509-324-2542 (office) or 360-471-0691 (cell).
You will increase the chances for a successful investigation if you e-mail an E-CORE team member a completed:
- Electrical Inspection Witness Statement (F500-087-000) or
- Investigation Report (F500-076-000) and
- Digital photo(s).
