RIGHT OF ENTRY TO INSPECT, ETC.; WARRANTS (§ 35.1-5)

Upon presentation of appropriate credentials and upon consent of the owner or
custodian, the Commissioner or his designee shall have the right to enter at any
reasonable time onto the premises of any hotel, restaurant, summer camp, or
campground to inspect, investigate, evaluate, conduct tests, or take samples for
testing as he reasonably deems necessary in order to determine whether any
provision of this title, any regulation of the Board, any order of the Board or
Commissioner, or any condition in a license issued by the Board or Commissioner
pursuant to this title is being violated. If the Commissioner or his designee is
denied entry, he may apply to an appropriate circuit court for an inspection
warrant authorizing such investigation, evaluation, inspection, testing, or
taking of samples for testing as provided in Chapter 24 (§ 19.2-393 et seq.) of
Title 19.2.
