Please Note:

The following instructions are to be used by authorized non-WSDOT stakeholders


for viewing documents related to limited access break or revision request
packages, within the Department’s ECM Portal. Currently, the authorization of
stakeholders is limited to either Federal Highway Administration staff or Sound
Transit staff. Permissions are granted through HQ Access and Hearings.
Step‐By‐Step Guide for Viewing Documents in the ECM Portal

Step 1. To view documents in the ECM Portal, navigate to the ECM website at the following
address:
https://remoteapps.wsdot.wa.gov/Portal/
You will be prompted to log in using the user name and password provided to you by WSDOT
Access and Hearings.
In the ECM Portal, on the left column, click on the “Search Documents” next to the magnifying
glass, then click on your available search (either FHWA or Sound Transit).
You will then be prompted for information about the project.

Note: Searching for documents can sometimes be challenging, especially if you use too many
search constraints. By default, most values are set to “ = ”. This means the search will return only
those values that are exact matches to the search text you enter. It is important to know that there
are other options that become available when selecting the list button.

Unless you know the exact project title, it is better to filter using “Contains”. This will perform a
much broader search. You can also select the state route from a drop-down list or filter by mile
post range, customer, or start date.

Your search should return all documents associated with the project you have selected.

At this point, you could view a copy of the file by clicking on the icon for the file under the View
column (typically shown as an Adobe Acrobat icon). You will be prompted to either open a read-
only copy or save a copy of the file to another location on your computer.

You can also download a file, by right-clicking on the file’s icon, selecting “Download”, then
either “Download this Document” or “Download Document as PDF”.

You will be prompted at the bottom of the ECM Portal window to save the file. Select a location
where you can easily locate the file again after saving. This creates an unmanaged copy of the
original file.

When you are done viewing documents, you can exit the ECM Portal by closing the web
browser. Your searches will not be saved.
