§ 270-180. INSPECTIONS

(a)

The Local EMS Agency shall inspect, or cause to be inspected, every unit before it is placed into use, and annually thereafter. Such inspections do not duplicate, and shall not be in lieu of, inspections performed or required by the California Highway Patrol.

(b)

After inspection, a written report shall be prepared indicating every violation or omission of any requirements, standards or provisions contained in this Chapter with respect to the unit inspected. The report shall set a time period for correction of each violation or omission. A copy of the report shall be given to the permittee of the service concerned.

(c)

In addition to the routine inspections required in Section 270-180(a), the Local EMS Agency may make unannounced non-routine inspections of any unit, attendant, volunteer, pilot or air attendant, station or substation regulated here under, for the purpose of determining whether or not any aspect of a service subject to this Chapter is, or is not, compliance with the Chapter. A written report shall be prepared and forwarded to the Board of Supervisors.
