Whenever it is necessary to make an inspection to enforce any of the provisions or
perform any duty imposed by this article or by the county codes adopted by reference
hereby or other applicable law, the administrative authority is hereby authorized
to enter such property at any reasonable time and to inspect the same and perform
any duty imposed upon the administrative authority by this article or other applicable
law, provided that if such property be occupied, the administrative authority shall
first present proper credentials to the occupant and request entry, explaining the
reasons therefore. If such entry is refused or cannot be obtained because the owner
or other person having charge or control of the property cannot be found after due
diligence, the administrative authority shall have recourse to every remedy provided
by law to secure lawful entry and inspect the property.
(B)
Notwithstanding subsection (a) of this section, if the administrative authority has
reasonable cause to believe that the onsite sewage dispersal system or premises is
so unsafe, offensive, or dangerous as to require immediate inspection to safeguard
the public health or safety, the administrative authority shall have the right to
immediately enter and inspect such property and use any reasonable means required
to effect such entry and make such inspection, whether such property be occupied or
unoccupied and whether or not permission to inspect has been obtained. If the property
is occupied, the administrative authority shall first present proper credentials to
the occupant and demand entry, explaining the reasons therefore and the purpose of
the inspection.
