The plumber certification program continues to grow based on industry needs and the introduction of new safety challenges such as medical gas piping.
The Governor’s Advisory Board for Plumbers and L&I hold quarterly public meetings to increase public awareness on issues that affect the plumbing industry
We're developing hand-held computer systems that enable us to more effectively identify non-certified plumbers who may be performing sub-standard work while in the field.
We're distributing information via pamphlets and the Internet and extending community outreach to home shows, county fairs and the business community.
Enhanced stakeholder involvement, including more interaction with the Plumber Advisory Board and other industry representatives will ensure a collaborative policy-making process.
