316 - Record of enrollment.

 
    §  316.  Record  of  enrollment.  Each local director of civil defense
  shall maintain a record of enrollment of civil  defense  volunteers  who
  are  personnel  of the volunteer agencies sponsored by his local office.
  Each record shall contain the name and address  of  the  volunteer,  the
  name  of  his employer, date of enrollment and authorized classification
  or assignment to duty, including the times of his assigned duty, as well
  as changes in  or  termination  of  enrollment.  Such  record  shall  be
  maintained  in  duplicate  and  the  duplicate records shall be filed in
  separate places for greater security in the event of attack.
    Records of enrollment  shall  be  open  for  inspection  during  usual
  business hours by the chairman or by an officer or employee of the board
  designated  by  the  chairman.  The  local director shall furnish to the
  chairman on request such information in the record of enrollment  as  is
  required for administration of this article.
    In  the  event  of attack, actual or imminent, for which volunteers in
  any part of the area under the jurisdiction  of  a  local  director  are
  mobilized,  the  local  director shall forthwith deliver to the chairman
  one of such duplicate records of enrollment.
    If the civil defense volunteers enrolled by a local office  shall,  in
  accordance  with  a  mutual aid agreement approved by the New York state
  civil defense commission, respond to a request for assistance  from  any
  place,  either  within  or without the state, which has suffered attack,
  and shall perform therein authorized civil  defense  duties,  the  local
  director  shall  forthwith deliver to the chairman one of such duplicate
  records of enrollment.
    The information contained in such record of  enrollment  delivered  to
  the  chairman  shall be prima facie evidence of information on which the
  chairman may rely in paying claims of civil defense volunteers or  their
  dependents  under  this  article; and if such record is not delivered to
  the chairman as required by this section,  the  burden  of  proving  his
  right  to  compensation  under this article in the case of civil defense
  volunteers of the local office shall rest on the claimant.
