In addition to the boiler inspectors authorized by KRS 236.070, the department
shall, upon the request of any company authorized to insure against loss from
explosion of boilers and pressure vessels in this state, issue to any boiler
inspectors of said company commissions as special boiler inspectors, provided
that each such special boiler inspector before receiving such commission, shall
satisfactorily pass the examination provided for in KRS 236.090, or, in lieu of
such examination, shall hold a commission or certificate of competency as an
inspector of boilers and pressure vessels for a state that has a standard of
examination substantially equal to that of this Commonwealth or a commission
as an inspector of boilers and pressure vessels issued by the National Board of
Boiler and Pressure Vessel Inspectors.
Such special boiler inspectors shall receive no salary from, nor shall any of
their expenses be paid by, the state and the continuance of a special
inspector's commission shall be conditioned upon his or her continuing in the
employ of an insurance company duly authorized as aforesaid and upon his or
her maintenance of the standards imposed by this chapter.
Such special boiler inspectors shall inspect all boilers and pressure vessels
insured by their respective companies, and, when so inspected and reported
as required, the owners and users of such insured boilers and pressure
vessels shall be exempt from the payment to the state of the inspection fees as
provided for in KRS 236.120 and 236.130.
Each company employing such special boiler inspectors shall within thirty (30)
days following each certificate inspection made by such inspectors, file a report
of such inspection with the division upon appropriate forms prescribed by the
division. Other than the certificate inspection report, no reporting of other
inspections shall be required except when such inspections disclose that the
boiler or pressure vessel is in a dangerous condition.
