312 IAC 5-14-21 Certificate of inspection; issuance; posting; revocation

Sec. 21. (a) Upon satisfactory completion of the required drydock and annual dockside inspections, the department shall issue a certificate of inspection to expire one (1) year after the date on which the boat was inspected. The department may extend the expiration date for a period not to exceed thirty (30) days if conditions exist that would prevent the inspection of the boat before the first anniversary of the previous inspection. (b) Except as provided in this subsection, the certificate of inspection must be placed under transparent material and posted conspicuously on the boat. If posting is impracticable, the certificate must be kept onboard and shown on demand. (c) The department shall issue stickers with each certificate. The stickers must be affixed conspicuously to the port and starboard sides of the boat. (d) The department may, under IC 4-21.5-3-8 or IC 4-21.5-4, revoke a certificate issued under this section for any of the following reasons: (1) Changes occur to a boat after the issuance of the certificate so that the boat no longer meets the minimum standards for certification. (2) The owner, the captain, or a crew member violates IC 14-15 or this rule. (3) Information significant to the issuance of the certificate has been falsified or concealed.
