OAR 918-098-1300
Certifications Related to Manufactured Structures and Parks

Scope. The rules in OAR 918-098-1300 (Certifications Related to Manufactured Structures and Parks) to 918-098-1330 (Manufactured Structure Accessory Structure or Accessory Building Inspection) relate to certifications for inspectors and plans examiners dealing with manufactured dwellings, manufactured dwelling parks, organizational camps, recreation parks, and picnic parks.

(1)

A person issued a manufactured structure installation inspector, manufactured structure construction inspector, or park and camp inspector certification must also possess a valid Oregon Inspector Certification issued under OAR 918-098-1025 (Certification Requirements) prior to performing inspections.

(2)

Hiring Non-Certified Persons. The division or a jurisdiction may employ a person not meeting the minimum requirements of OAR 918-098-1305 (Manufactured Structure Installation Inspector Certification) through 918-098-1320 (Park and Camp Inspector Certification) while the person is being trained or waiting to qualify to take the division examination. During this period, the person may only perform inspections or plan reviews under the direct supervision of appropriately certified trainers. Training must be provided by an inspector or plans examiner having a minimum of three years experience in the same certification or a person approved by the board. This rule does not waive the requirements of ORS 455.730 (Certification of personnel required) or permit the division or jurisdiction to hire or use persons whose certifications have lapsed or been revoked.
