Or. Admin. R. 918-400-0600 - Initial Inspections
(1) The
division shall perform all initial inspections of a new or altered elevator
regulated by ORS 460.005 to
460.175.
(2) Prior to all required final inspections,
the elevator contractor or person holding the installation or alteration permit
shall call for an inspection. Inspections shall be scheduled as soon as
resources are available. Where new installation and alteration sites are
located more than one hour travel, one-way, from an inspector's duty station,
the contractor shall schedule inspections allowing the inspector to return to
the duty station no later than end of business day on Friday or day preceding a
holiday.
(3) Prior to the scheduled
date of the final inspection, the elevator contractor is required to ensure
that the installation of the equipment is complete and fully operational
according to applicable codes. The elevator inspector is not obliged to
continue an inspection where such evidence is not readily apparent.
(4) When the inspector discontinues an
inspection because the installation fails inspection or is not ready for final
inspection, the elevator contractor or general contractor shall be charged at
the rate provided for in OAR
918-400-0800. Charges shall
include all time expended, portal-to-portal, toward such inspections, but no
less than 4 hours.
