SSB 3064: SSB 3064

What it does

This bill strikes the requirement that the department of inspections, appeals, and licensing (DIAL) conduct an annual inspection of a business entity permitted to remove or encapsulate asbestos, and instead requires DIAL to inspect such entities upon complaints, referrals, injuries, accidents, or media notifications, or in case of imminent danger. The bill also repeals the requirement that DIAL or a local board of health conduct biennial sanitation inspections of all hotels in Iowa. The bill moves certain provisions associated with inspections from the repealed provision to the provision requiring DIAL to inspect a hotel upon receiving a complaint.
