OWNER-USER INSPECTION AGENCIES (§ 40.1-51.11:1)

Any person, firm, partnership or corporation operating pressure vessels in this
Commonwealth may seek approval and registration as an owner-user inspection
agency by filing an application with the chief inspector on forms prescribed and
available from the Department, and request approval by the Board. Each
application shall be accompanied by a fee as set under subsection A of §
40.1-51.15 and a bond in the penal sum of $5,000 which shall continue to be
valid during the time the approval and registration of the company as an
owner-user inspection agency is in effect. Applicants meeting the requirements
of the rules and regulations for approval as owner-user inspection agencies will
be approved and registered by the Board. The Board shall withdraw the approval
and registration as an owner-user inspection agency of any person, firm,
partnership or corporation which fails to comply with all rules and regulations
applicable to owner-user inspection agencies. Each owner-user inspection agency
shall file an annual statement as required by the rules and regulations,
accompanied by a filing fee as set under subsection A of § 40.1-51.15.
