Intermodal equipment providers shall implement a process to positively identify by means of a tag those intermodal chassis that are out-of-service as a result of having failed an inspection required by this act. The tag shall contain the name of the intermodal equipment provider, the inspector and the date that the chassis failed inspection. The tag shall be supplied by the intermodal equipment provider and shall meet the specifications determined by the department.

b. A chassis which is out-of-service as a result of having failed an inspection required by this act shall be transported, without a container, to a facility where repairs and maintenance may be performed. Defects identified during an SMC inspection of a chassis shall be repaired, and the repairs shall be recorded on the chassis maintenance file and on the SMC inspection report.

A chassis subject to this section shall not be interchanged with a motor carrier or operated on a public road in New Jersey until all defects listed during the inspection have been corrected, the chassis passes an SMC inspection, and an authorized inspector attests to that fact and affixes an SMC inspection sticker to the chassis.
