The bill introduces a new section to chapter 46.08 RCW that allows the department to issue confidential drivers' licenses and identicards specifically for investigators employed by the office of the attorney general. These confidential identification documents are intended for use in undercover or covert civil or criminal law enforcement activities. The licenses and identicards will have an expiration date in accordance with departmental rules, but they can only be utilized during the investigator's assignment to such operations.

Additionally, the bill grants the director the authority to establish rules regarding the application process and usage of these confidential licenses and identicards, as well as confidential license plates. This legislative change aims to enhance the operational capabilities of law enforcement personnel engaged in sensitive investigations while ensuring that the use of these documents is regulated and limited to specific circumstances.
