Current through Register Vol. 63, No. 9, September 1, 2024
At least ten percent of each minor label lot shall be
inspected.
(1) For optional programs,
the authority having jurisdiction shall inspect within 30 days of return of a
minor label log sheet, or of lot completion in an online account. If the work
inspected violates the code under which the installation is made, the
inspecting jurisdiction may:
(a) Inspect
additional installations listed in the log sheet or the online account;
and
(b) Charge the person
purchasing the minor labels for all new inspections and for all reinspections
required at the jurisdiction's hourly inspection rate.
(2) Under the statewide program, the
authority having jurisdiction shall inspect the minor installation within 30
days of contacting the homeowner, but no more than 35 days from the date of
receipt of the division's request to inspect.
(a) The division shall compensate each
inspecting jurisdiction $75 per inspection for the first minor label
installation inspected in a lot. In the event that a jurisdiction is required
to perform an inspection on a second or third label, the contractor shall
compensate the jurisdiction directly at a uniform flat fee of $75. If the
jurisdiction finds a code violation that requires a second inspection of minor
label, the contractor shall compensate the jurisdiction directly at the
jurisdiction's hourly rate.
(b) The
division shall, upon notice of three failed inspections in the same lot of
labels, notify the contractor and the jurisdictions affected by the remaining
labels in the same lot. Each jurisdiction shall then notify the contractor that
a permit is necessary for each of the remaining installations within the
jurisdiction in the same lot of labels, and work shall follow the normal permit
and inspection procedures for that jurisdiction.
(c) If, at any time during a three-year
period, the division notifies jurisdictions of two or more lots of minor labels
under subsection (b) of this section, the division shall no longer issue minor
label sheets to the contractor for a period of one year, upon final
determination. Normal permit and inspection procedures for the applicable
jurisdiction shall be followed. The contractor shall return any unused minor
labels to the division.
(d) Any
contractor wishing to appeal a denial of the use of minor labels is entitled to
a contested case hearing under the Administrative Procedures Act, ORS Chapter
183.
