OAR 918-098-1550. Specialized Inspector Certification Issuance and Expiration

(1) Upon receiving proof of completion of all requirements listed in these rules, the division may issue the appropriate specialized inspector certification. (2) The scope of a certification may be tailored to an individual’s knowledge level and skill as determined by the division through an independent evaluation, but may not exceed the scope of work allowed under the rules. (3) A person holding a valid specialized inspector certification may only perform the duties authorized under that certification provided the person is employed or otherwise authorized by a municipality or the division. (4) All specialized certifications remain valid provided the holder maintains a current Oregon Inspector Certification. Should the holder fail to maintain a valid Oregon Inspector Certification, all certifications, including any specialized certification issued under this rule, become invalid and the holder may not conduct any inspections until the Oregon Inspector Certification is again valid.
