Contractors not allowed (debarred) to bid on or work on public works projects

Debarred contractors are contractors who were found to be in non-compliance with prevailing wage law or contractor registration law.

Being "debarred" means a contractor shall not be permitted to bid, or have a bid considered, on any public works contract until monetary penalties have been paid as a result of a Notice of Violation of 39.12 RCW or an Infraction issued of 18.27.200 RCW. A contractor, depending on the violation, can be debarred from bidding on public work contracts for a one or two-year period.
