32-2324. Wood-destroying insect inspection
reports


A. Wood-destroying insect inspection reports may only be completed by an applicator
or qualifying party who is licensed in the categories of management of wood-destroying
insects and wood-destroying insect inspection and who has received at least five hours of
instruction from the office or the former structural pest control commission or an
in-house education program of a business licensee on the subject of wood-destroying
insect inspection reports. An examination on the instruction is not required. The
business licensee shall keep a record of completion of the training and shall make the
record available on the acting director's request.


B. Wood-destroying insect inspection reports shall be on file in the office of the
business licensee within seven calendar days after the completion of an inspection. The
business licensee shall retain a copy of all completed wood-destroying insect inspection
reports for five years and make the reports available on the acting director's request.


C. Wood-destroying insect inspection reports are evidence of the existence or
absence of wood-destroying insects that were visible and accessible to an inspector on
the date the inspection was made. A business licensee remains responsible for the
accuracy of the inspection and the report as evidence of the presence or absence of
infestation on the date of inspection, except that a wood-destroying insect inspection
report shall not be construed as a guarantee as to the presence or absence of
wood-destroying insects in a structure after the date of inspection.
