State Resources for Port Angeles Phone Directory

The Data.WA open data portal hosts data sets from many state offices and lists phone info for the office that owns each set. These tools fill the gaps when the city list does not have what you need. A short stop at the state level often saves a call.

The state law in RCW 42.56.010 sets out key terms. Each agency must name a public records officer and post a phone number. That rule is what makes a working phone directory possible across Port Angeles and the rest of the state.
