PURPOSE
The Washington Utility Coordinating Council
(WUCC) was originally established in 1972.
It began in other forms as early as 1950
when local utility forums were created.
The purpose of this statewide organization of
utilities, governmental agencies, contractors,
excavators, and other interested
organizations and individuals is to cooperate
to reduce damages to utility facilities thereby
promoting safety and protecting the public
interest.
Through communication, coordination, and
cooperation, the WUCC works to achieve the
orderly planning and installation of
underground facilities. Because more and
more utilities are being placed underground,
communication, coordination, and
cooperation are vital.
The WUCC continues to actively assist and
promote the formation of local utility
coordinating councils.
