Who you will deal with in Richland
Benton County Coroner
Richland is in Benton County, so a sudden or unexplained death is handled by the Benton County Coroner. Its office is in Kennewick, 7122 W. Okanogan Place, Suite C110, phone 509-736-2720.
Richland Police
For a question about when a home will be released, the city lists (509) 628-0333 as the number for non-urgent matters. It is answered around the clock.
Power and water for the cleanup
The City of Richland runs its own electric, water and wastewater utilities. A cleanup company needs both power and water on site, so check them before the work date, especially if the home has been empty.
If service was stopped after a death, the person handling the estate can ask the city to restart it through its utility pages. For an electrical emergency the city lists 509-943-4428.
