B, above. For reference, HUD designated Hurricane Zone counties that existed prior to July 13, 1994, were as follows: Hancock, Harrison, Jackson, George, Pearl River, Stone, Greene, Perry, Forrest, Lamar, Marion, Walthall, Pike, Amite, and Wilkinson. However, if the county or municipality has jurisdiction within the post-July 13, 1994, Wind Zone II area has adopted more restrictive requirements that would prohibit the installation of a pre-July 13, 1994, Hurricane Zone house, then the requirements of such county or municipality shall govern. D. Used Factory-Built homes built prior to 1994, currently installed in a Wind Zone I location and having no accessible or readable data plate to determine the wind zone designation the home cannot be moved to a Wind Zone II location unless it can be proven that the home has a Wind Zone II designation. E. Prior to the sale and installation of all new and used Factory-Built homes, the retailer, the developer and/or the installer/transporter shall determine whether the house is constructed to the properly rated Wind/Hurricane zone for its intended use and installation by referring to the HUD data plate. Any Factory-Built Home that is to be transported within or into the six (6) coastal counties of the State (Pearl River, Stone, George, Hancock, Harrison, and Jackson County) for installation, the retailer, the developer and/or installer transporter will be required to obtain a photocopy or a clear photograph of the data plate for the home. The photograph or copy of the data plate must be attached to the Property Locator/Certificate of Installation and submitted to the Factory-Built Home Division. If no accessible or readable data plate is available in the home to verify the Wind/Hurricane zone designation, a copy of the HUD data plate and compliance certificate must be obtained either from the manufacturer of the home or from the Institute for Building Technology and Safety (IBTS). F. The support and anchoring systems of all Factory-Built homes that bear the HUD label shall be designated by a Registered Professional engineer or architect and meet the requirements of 24 CFR Section 3280.306, pursuant to the National Manufactured Housing Construction and Safety Standards Act of 1974, as amended (42 U.S.C. Section 5401, et seq.) and the Manufactured Housing Improvement Act of 2000 as amended. The manufacturer shall provide complete tie down instructions with each Factory-Built home. G. From and after July 1, 2005, no retailer, developer, transporter or installer/transporter shall deliver or cause to be delivered any Factory-Built home to any person at any site where such home is to be used for human habitation without anchoring and blocking such home in accordance with rules, regulations and procedures promulgated by the Commissioner pursuant to Miss. Code Ann. § 75-49-5; provided, however, that a period of thirty (30) days from date of delivery shall be allowed for the anchoring and blocking of such homes.
