Description

The complaint alleged Verna Seal violated RCW 42.17A.710 by failing to accurately file financial affairs (F-1) statements, specifically failing to list gifts on the F-1 of reimbursed travel and other expenses for seminars and other education programs attended in the years noted in the complaint. 

PDC staff has determined that in this instance, the failure to accurately file financial affairs statement does not amount to a finding of a violation that warrants further investigation. 

However, pursuant to WAC 390-37-060(1)(d), Verna Seal will receive a formal written warning concerning the failure to comply with PDC requirements as noted in this letter.

The formal written warning will include staff’s expectation that Verna Seal accurately file all future required financial affairs reports as required by law. The Commission will consider the formal written warning in deciding on further Commission action if there are future violations of PDC laws or rules.

Based on this information, the PDC finds that no further action is warranted and has dismissed this matter in accordance with RCW 42.17A.755(1).
