(A) Inspections. The administering agency and any responding agency shall have the authority to conduct periodic inspections of any facilities for the purposes of ascertaining or causing to be corrected any condition which may be a violation of this chapter. Joint inspection shall be conducted where necessary for purposes of HMPC Plan review. Inspections shall be made during normal working hours.
(B) Investigations. When information that has been received for evidence indicates that an unreported release may have occurred on a property or facility, the administering agency and any responding agency shall be allowed immediate access to the facility by company personnel to conduct a proper investigation. Admission under this provision shall be consistent with the company's safety procedures and the incident protocols as set forth in Appendix A, but shall not result in an unreasonable delay.
