HOUSE BILL NO. 937 Offered January 13, 2010 Prefiled January 13, 2010 A BILL to amend and reenact § 40.1-51.15 of the Code of Virginia, relating to fees for boiler and pressure vessel certification. ---------- Patron-- Alexander ---------- Referred to Committee on Commerce and Labor ----------

Be it enacted by the General Assembly of Virginia:

1.  That § 40.1-51.15 of the Code of Virginia is amended and reenacted as follows:

A. For the certificate required under subsection B of § 40.1-51.10, a $30 fee shall be charged. The Safety and Health Codes Board shall establish all other fees required under this chapter.

Such revisions, and the underlying rationale, shall be included in the Department's Annual Report submitted pursuant to § 40.1-4.1.

B. The owner or user of a boiler or pressure vessel required by this chapter to be reviewed shall pay directly to the Commissioner, upon completion of inspection, fees in accordance with the following schedule:

1. Conducting or participating in reviews and surveys of boiler or pressure vessel manufacturers or repair organizations for the purpose of national accreditation, shall be charged a fee as set under subsection A per review or survey.

2. a. All other inspections, including variance reviews, emergency repair reviews, and reviews of secondhand or used boilers or pressure vessels made by the Commissioner or his appointed representative shall be charged a fee as set under subsection A.

b. "Secondhand" shall mean an object which has changed ownership and location after primary use.

C. The Commissioner shall transfer all fees so received to the State Treasurer for deposit into the general fund of the state treasury.
