24.225.921    INSPECTIONS – INITIAL AND ANNUAL

(1) Applicants must pass an initial inspection of the facility by a board-designated inspector prior to a license being issued.

(a) Results of the inspection will be provided to the licensee.

(b) If there are any items of noncompliance, the attorney-in-fact must submit a written response to the board which addresses those items of noncompliance. The response must be received by the department within ten days of the attorney-in-fact receiving notification of noncompliance.

(c) If issues of noncompliance are not corrected within ten days of the attorney-in-fact receiving notice of noncompliance, a report of noncompliance will be reviewed by the board at the next regularly scheduled board meeting following the initial inspection. For good cause the board may order a re-inspection, the cost of which will be paid by the applicant.

(2) A board-designated inspector will conduct annual on-site inspections of all existing certified euthanasia agency facilities.

(a) Inspections may be conducted with or without advance notice to the licensee.

(b) Results of the inspection will be provided to the licensee.

(c) If there are any items of noncompliance, the attorney-in-fact must submit a written response to the board which addresses those items of noncompliance. The response must be received by the board within ten days of the licensee receiving notification of noncompliance.

(d) A report of significant noncompliance will be reviewed by the board screening panel per the department's standard compliance process.

(3) If the inspector determines that an item of noncompliance substantially affects the public health, safety, or welfare, or jeopardizes animals under the control of the certified euthanasia agency, the inspector must immediately inform law enforcement and the board, which may summarily suspend the licensee's certificate pursuant to 2-4-631, MCA, and applicable Montana law.
