HB 1145 Washington House · 2025-2026 Regular Session

Concerning county public works reporting requirements.

HB 1145 requires Washington counties to document specific details about public works activities involving natural materials on county roads. It mandates counties to record the amount of soil, trees, or other natural materials removed (if more than a very small, unnoticed amount), where materials were disposed of, whether they were reused, and if contaminant testing was performed. This directly affects county governments managing road maintenance or construction on county roads adjacent to other property. The bill aims to increase transparency around environmental impacts of such projects by establishing clear record-keeping standards. (Bill: HB 1145, "Concerning county public works reporting requirements.")
