      (a) Establish a small business innovation research assistance program, including a proposal review process, to train and assist Washington small businesses to win phase I small business innovation research program awards. (((a))) In operating the program the Washington technology center shall give priority to first-time small business innovation research program applicants, new businesses, and firms with fewer than ten employees((.));

      (b) Develop and disseminate a guide to the technology commercialization process in the research and academic institutions in the state;

      (c) Develop, maintain, and provide access to a database of technologies and inventions developed in the state available for commercialization and licensing;

      (d) Offer training on the provision of commercialization assistance to technical assistance providers at the state's small business development centers, economic development councils, chambers of commerce, industry cluster associations, the Washington manufacturing service, and private consulting firms;

     (1) Whenever it appears that any person is committing or has committed any act that constitutes a violation of section 2 of this act, the prosecuting attorney or the parents or guardian of any child harmed by an alleged violation of section 2 of this act may initiate a civil proceeding in superior court to enjoin such violation, and may petition the court to issue an order for the discontinuance of the publication of the information in violation of section 2 of this

act.

     (2) An action under this section shall be brought in the county in which the violation is alleged to have taken place, and shall be commenced by the filing of a verified complaint, or shall be accompanied by an affidavit.

     (3) If it is shown to the satisfaction of the court, either by verified complaint or affidavit, that a person is committing or has committed any act that constitutes a violation of section 2 of this act, the court may issue a temporary restraining order to abate and prevent the continuance or recurrence of the act.     (4) The court may issue a permanent injunction to restrain, abate, or prevent the continuance or recurrence of the violation of section 2 of this act. The court may grant declaratory relief, mandatory orders, or any other relief deemed necessary to accomplish the purposes of the injunction. The court may retain jurisdiction of the case for the purpose of enforcing its orders.

      (1) The parents or guardian of any child whose personal information is published in violation of section 2 of this act and who suffers damages as a result of such conduct may bring a cause of action against the person who published such information, for actual damages sustained and reasonable attorneys' fees and costs.

        (2) If a court has found that any person has engaged in any act that constitutes a violation of section 2 of this act the court shall award liquidated damages to the child whose personal information is published in violation of section 2 of this act in the amount of ten thousand dollars for each violation.
