*Security screening ends May 20 in Legislative Building*

*OLYMPIA* -- The use of security screening equipment in the Legislative
Building will end as of midnight May 20.

General Administration will still provide security personnel in the
building through June 30, but without the use of metal detectors and
X-ray machines that have been in place since November 2004. The
Legislature decided to end funding of the pilot security screening
program that General Administration managed.

The security program will transition as follows:

*
From midnight May 20 through 6 p.m. on May 27, contract security
personnel will continue to staff entrances, exits and public areas
of the building. Contract personnel will not be working after May 27.
*
Beginning May 28 through June 30, General Administration personnel
will provide building security from 6 a.m. to 6 p.m. Monday
through Friday and from 8 a.m. to 6:30 p.m. on the weekends.
*
Starting July 1, there will be no security personnel in the building.

General Administration has worked with legislative security and
theWashington State Patrol to ensure there are some security measures
for the building.
