Section 809.920  Audits and Uniform Registration and Uniform Permit Revocation

The Agency will conduct audits to ensure that the transporter is accurately reporting its hazardous waste transportation activity.  If a transporter violates any of the uniform permit conditions or fails to comply with any provisions of the Act or with any Board regulation, sanctions may be imposed as provided in the Act, including revocation of the uniform permit and uniform registration.  As part of the audit process the Agency is authorized, within constitutional limitations, to do the following:

a)         Require transporters to allow Agency representatives to inspect or examine any commercial vehicle or facility operated by a transporter who transports hazardous waste in this State;

b)         Require transporters to produce papers, books, records, documents, or other evidentiary material necessary to determine if a transporter is accurately reporting its hazardous waste transportation operations and is otherwise complying with the Uniform Program; and

c)         Require transporters to allow Agency representatives to conduct investigations and audits necessary to determine if a transporter is entitled to a uniform permit or to make a suspension or revocation determination.
