Text

The bureau may monitor compliance with all insulation standards, including those adopted by the Energy Resources Conservation and Development Commission, pursuant to Section 25402 of the Public Resources Code, by conducting periodic inspections with its own personnel, or by requiring inspections conducted by an approved independent third party laboratory, of manufacturers, distributors, or retailers of insulation material sold within the state in order to determine their compliance with this article. The bureau shall annually test all categories of insulation products for which standards have been adopted. The bureau may require those manufacturers, distributors, or retailers that are inspected and found not in compliance with this article, or any regulation implementing it, to pay such reasonable fees as are necessary to cover the costs of inspections and testing necessary to investigate and enforce compliance by those manufacturers, distributors, and retailers. Fees shall be fixed in an amount not more than the cost of testing and inspection with a minimum fee of two hundred dollars ($200) for each test or inspection. The bureau may also conduct, or contract with approved independent third party laboratories to conduct, independent performance tests of insulation materials sold in the state, in order to determine compliance with its adopted standards. Where a fee is not paid, the full amount of the assessed fee shall be added to the fee for the renewal of a license. A license shall not be renewed without payment of the renewal fee and all fees for testing and inspection.
