32 C.F.R. § 626.9 Inspections.
Title 32 - National Defense
(a) Biosafety laboratories require periodic (at least quarterly for BL–1 and BL–2 and monthly for BL–3 and BL–4 laboratories), inspections by safety and health professionals. Safety officials will document the inspections, assure that deviations from safe practices are recorded, and that recommended corrective actions are taken. If deviations are life threatening, this area will be restricted until corrective actions are accomplished. New RDTE efforts involving etiologic agents will be evaluated and inspected prior to start-up to assure equipment, facilities, employee training, and procedures are in place and adequate for the introduction of BDP material. Safety officials will maintain such records for 3 years and will review the records at least annually for trends requiring corrective actions. (b) Supervisors shall inspect work areas frequently (at least weekly) and take corrective actions promptly.
