§ 14.04.070. Inspection by central inspection superintendent—Revocation of industrial compliance certificate—Penalty for violations.

A.

RIGHT OF ENTRY. The central inspection superintendent and the fire marshal shall at all reasonable times have the right of access to any plant of a holder of an industrial compliance certificate for the purpose of making actual inspections to assure themselves that such holder is in compliance with the acceptable standards.

B.

REVOCATION FOR NON-COMPLIANCE. Whenever the central inspection superintendent shall find, upon actual inspection, that a qualified industry's technical activities are not being conducted in general conformance with acceptable standards, then upon fifteen days' written notice to the holder the central inspection superintendent shall revoke said holder's industrial compliance certificate, unless within said fifteen days the industry shall bring its activities into conformance or shall appeal the ruling of the central inspection superintendent in accordance with Section 14.04.080 hereof. Upon final revocation of such a certificate an industry shall not be eligible to apply for re-issuance thereof for a period of ninety days, whereupon a new application may be filed in accordance with Section 14.04.050, hereof.

C.

CORRECTIONS. If the central inspection superintendent shall find, upon actual inspection, that a qualified industry is in general compliance with acceptable standards but has failed to comply in some particular work in such a manner as may be dangerous to life or property, he shall by written order require the same to be corrected by the industry within such time as shall be reasonable under the circumstances. Neglect or refusal to comply with such order shall be grounds for revocation of the industry's certificate in accordance with paragraph B of this section, and the city may obtain relief by appropriate court action requiring correction of the matters out of compliance and may likewise seek in the police court of the City of Wichita the imposition of the penalty provisions of this chapter.

D.

PENALTY. A breach of the foregoing paragraph (C) and failure to comply with the correction order of the central inspection superintendent shall constitute a breach of this chapter and shall subject the violator to penalties in the police court of the City of Wichita following a finding of guilty therein upon complaint of the central inspection superintendent. Such penalty shall be in the amount of five hundred dollars.
