(continued)
During each inspection visit, a Quality Assurance Agency shall monitor the manufacturer's compliance with material storage, inspection and testing procedures prescribed in an approved quality control manual and shall monitor the quality control procedures at each of the manufacturer's production stations.
(h) When the manufacturer is found to be failing to follow the plan or quality control manual, a Quality Assurance Agency shall increase the intensity and frequency of inspections until such time that the agency is satisfied that the manufacturer is producing complying units on a consistent basis.
(i) A Quality Assurance Agency shall recommend to the department, cancellation of the certification when the increased inspections required by subsection (h) reveal that a manufacturer continues to fail to comply with the quality control manual, plans, or otherwise produces noncomplying units. The recommendation shall be accompanied by the inspection reports specified in Section 4880(c) and any other documentation of actions taken to improve the manufacturer's compliance. The department shall notify the manufacturer of the recommendation and provide an opportunity for the manufacturer to submit and be heard with opposing information before the department makes a decision to cancel the certification.
(j) A Quality Assurance Agency shall recommend to the department, cancellation of the certification of any manufacturing facility which relocates, changes production sequences, changes key personnel, or introduces new designs which result in a failure to comply with the approved plans or quality control manual. The recommendation and departmental action shall be the same as specified above in subsection (i).
(k) When a certification has been cancelled, the Quality Assurance Agency shall conduct inspections as specified in subsection (e).
( l) For the purposes of this section, a manufacturing facility with plan approvals and quality control manuals in effect on the effective date of this article is considered to have been certified by the department and is not in need of recertification by a Quality Assurance Agency.
(m) A Quality Assurance Agency shall not disapprove or in any way interfere with the production of units produced in accordance with plans and quality control manuals approved by the department or the manufacturer's Design Approval Agency. When a Quality Assurance Agency believes an approved plan is in violation of the Health and Safety Code, Division 13, Part 2, or this Subchapter, the Quality Assurance Agency shall submit a written request for reconsideration of the approval to the manufacturer and the manufacturer's Design Approval Agency. The Quality Assurance Agency shall provide a copy of all such requests for reconsideration as an attachment to the Agency's monthly report specified in Section 4880(b).
If the subject of a request for reconsideration is not resolved to the satisfaction of the Quality Assurance Agency within thirty (30) days of the request, the agency shall refer the matter to the department for resolution.
