You will be responsible for:
  • Inspection of commercial vehicle drivers for conformity to licensing, log book, and permit requirements as determined by state and federal laws, rules and requirements
  • Physical inspection of the commercial vehicle and load for conformity to size, weight, and load restrictions as well as safety and mechanical requirements as determined by state and federal laws, rules and requirements
  • Preparing cases and submitting daily inspection reports to properly document violations and findings in support of legal action in district, superior, and civil courts

  • Must be physically capable of lifting and deploying portable scales (up to 50 lbs) in order to weigh commercial vehicles
  • Willing to work in an environment that has potential for exposure to hazardous and/or radioactive material

The five Ports of Entry (POEs) are located in Bow, Cle Elum, Kennewick, Ridgefield, and Spokane.

At the successful completion of Phase one and Phase two of the training, employees will graduate and return to the work site.

  1. Supervised inspections at the assigned work site. Upon completion of 32 supervised CMV inspections, the employee will be certified as a CVEO 1
  2. Training with a Field Training Officer for a minimum of ten (10) weeks
