Section 69-10-04-06 - Quality assurance - Evaluation1. The commission may evaluate the work performed by a registered service person to ensure that the person is performing proper inspections and tests. The evaluation method may be by direct observation or by reinspection of a device previously placed or recertified by a registered service person. The commission may consider the following criteria during the evaluation:a. The results of previous quality assurance inspections; b. Complaints filed against a registered service person, and whether those complaints are valid; and c. Other factors deemed relevant by the commission.2. A quality assurance inspection ends when the tested device either fails a portion of the inspection or it passes the inspection. When a device fails a quality assurance inspection, the failure will be documented, the device will be rejected, and a follow up quality assurance inspection will be conducted as soon as practical. When a device passes a quality assurance inspection, a weights and measures inspector shall affix a quality assurance inspected tag to the device. A quality assurance inspection does not take the place of the annual certification.N.D. Admin Code 69-10-04-06
