Recreational Vehicles (RV) Sanitary Dump Stations are provided at select Safety Rest Areas for use by RV drivers. Construction & Maintenance of the RV Dump Stations is funded through RV licensing taxes. See the Rest Area Locations page for sites that have RV Dump Stations.
Recreational Vehicle Citizens Advisory Committee
The department utilizes a volunteer citizens group of recreational vehicle users to help define the needs of the recreational users at rest areas. RV Committee suggestions guide the department in adding and improving the RV Dump Stations. They also provide guidance on the expenditure of funds from the RV account and RV account fee adjustments.
The department may increase the RV account fee after consultation with citizens representatives of the recreational vehicle user community. The fee cannot be adjusted more than once every four years. The fee adjustments must be preceded by an evaluation per RCW 46.16.063.
