What is the proper procedure when DLI cannot make a required inspection?
If a call requesting inspection is received by DLI and the state inspector cannot appear on site within 24 hours (three working days), the contractor is given a verification number to give to the person performing the inspection as evidence that the proper inspection request has occurred. The contractor will then be directed to contact the local administrative authority; a city or county employee, such as sewer operator, water utility, or clerk; state contract inspector or private inspection company, depending on job location. See below for additional instructions if neither DLI nor the local jurisdiction can make an inspection. Go to top.
