Section 145.80. Expiration of approval period of third-party agencies

If for any reason the Department approval or reapproval of an evaluation agency or an inspection agency expires and the manufacturer having an implementing contract with that agency has not contracted another third-party agency, the Department may, at its own discretion, discharge some or all of the responsibilities of a third-party agency. In such a case, § 145.70 (relating to Departmental evaluation and inspection) is applicable. The Department may also approve another temporary arrangement which the Department determines would best promote the purposes of the act and this title.

The provisions of this § 145.80 adopted September 8, 1978, effective March 9, 1979, 8 Pa.B. 2524; corrected September 22, 1978, effective March 9, 1979, 8 Pa.B. 2631.
