Section II-913 - Audits
A. At all reasonable times, BAP or designee may audit the office of either a participating agency, its attorneys, or the contractor or subcontractor completing the contract, all documents, files, books, records and other material relevant to the surety bond guarantee commitments. Failure of a surety to consent to such an audit will be grounds for BAP to refuse to issue further surety guarantees until such time as the surety consents to such audit. However, when BAP has so refused to issue further guarantees the surety may appeal such action to the Secretary of the Department of Economic Development. All appeals must be in writing and delivered by certified mail within 30 days of receiving the director's, or designee's written issuance of notice that no further guarantees will be issued. Otherwise the director's, or designee's, decision becomes final.
