Vermont has an on line formal complaint form
One can forward this anonymously, or one can sign their name to it
In my case I pointed out a serious structural flaw to the project manager.
When he did nothing i went to the building owners
When he did nothing i went to my AHJ
When he did nothing i went to my AHJ's boss w/formal complaint in hand AND my name on it
When my AHJ's boss did squat (and i gave him 5-6 months) i went to the state licensing board
The licensing boards vice chair lit a fire under it all, the owners accused me of sabotaging the job, the engineer they hired (and they did so under protest) validated my complaint
IF someone points out a serious life threat to the state, they should not duck & hide from it due to politics
But they did, and it would have hung this boy out to dry if there was an incident, so it was a rock/hardplace deal for me
Believe me, I did't enjoy fighting city hall, and there's no glory in being an outcast due to it all, but it beats being out of biz
