sec.249 Testing by regulator
The regulator may arrange for the testing the regulator considers necessary to decide whether a cathodic protection system complies with the requirements of this part. If reasonably required by the regulator, the owner of a cathodic protection system must provide access to, and facilities for the testing of, the system. Maximum penalty—40 penalty units. If, on testing, a system is found not to comply with the requirements of this part, the costs reasonably incurred by the regulator in conducting the test, including the indirect and overhead costs incurred by the regulator, are a debt payable by the owner to the State.
