2009 California Insurance Code - Section 16020-16022 :: Article 3. Adjuster Identification

16020.  The commissioner, in consultation with the Office of
Emergency Services and other emergency service agencies, shall
establish a method for identification of representatives of insurers.

16021.  (a) In accordance with the methods established under Section
16020, the commissioner shall issue identification badges to each
insurer insuring property in the state. The insurer shall be
responsible for the distribution of the identification badges to
appropriate insurer representatives. The identification badges shall
permit access to disaster areas as soon as determined safe and
practical by the incident commander.
   (b) The purpose of the identification badges is to enable the
incident commander and state and local law enforcement officials to
identify the representatives of insurers for purposes of access to
disaster areas, and the badges shall not be used as identification
for other purposes. The badges shall include in bold lettering larger
than the other identifying information a statement that the bearer
is not a state employee or public official, and does not possess any
governmental authority.

16022.  The commissioner shall distribute identification badges to
insurance adjusters for the purpose of identifying persons who should
be given access to disaster areas. Every insurer shall maintain a
list of adjusters that have been assigned to work in the disaster
area.
