Challenges Facing InspectorsNew in 2000 and later editions• More than ½ the units in the USA were under 1996• Now under A17.1-2000, -04, -07, or -10 plus addenda• New numbering system

– Harmonization with B-44• Some areas have added Private Inspectors• Increased penalties for non-compliance• Lots of misinformation about:

– Adopted Codes & Effective Dates– Code Data Plate Requirements– Required Signage– Inspection Tag Requirements
