Washington State 911 Advisory Committee

The Washington State 911 Advisory Committee was created in 1991 to advise and assist the State 911 Coordinator in coordinating and facilitating the implementation and operation of enhanced 911 throughout the state. The members of the committee represent diverse geographical areas of the state and work together to recommend actions that help set uniform National and State standards for 911 services. The committee utilizes its many Subcommittees, which specialize in the varied aspects of 911 services, to create cohesive actions to recommend to the State 911 Coordinator, as per RCW 38.52.530.
