(b) Notwithstanding (a) of this section, in temporary labor camps that are occupied for a period of occupancy of no more than 60 consecutive days per year, sleeping rooms shall contain at least 50 square feet of floor space for each occupant. A period of occupancy begins with the first day of habitation in the camp and ends 60 days later regardless of intermittent periods of closure or vacancy. At least 60 days must elapse between periods of occupancy in successive calendar years in order to utilize the 50-square-foot exception available under this subsection.
