Cal. Civ. Code § 410-38-4-4
Qualified inspector list
Operative Text
Sec. 4. (a) The department will maintain a current list of all persons who have been found by the department to have met the requirements of section 2 of this rule. (b) The purpose of the qualified inspector list is to allow owners of contaminated properties, local health departments, and other persons to: (1) locate qualified inspectors; and (2) verify that a person is qualified to inspect and clean up contaminated properties. (c) Listing of a person on the qualified inspector list does not convey a property right. (d) The qualified inspector list will be available to the public as follows: (1) In person or by mail at Indiana Department of Health, Environmental Public Health, Room N855, 100 North Senate Avenue, Indianapolis, Indiana 46204-2251. (2) By telephone at (317) 233-7173 in Indiana. (3) Electronically on the department's Web site at http://www.in.gov/isdh/. (e) The department will review each application for completeness. When the person or persons identified in the application have demonstrated that all criteria of this rule have been met, the department will place that person or persons on the qualified inspector list. (f) The department will remove a person from the qualified inspector list who submits a written request for removal from the list to the address in section 3(b) of this rule. (g) The department may remove a person from the qualified inspector list if the person demonstrates a failure to meet one (1) or more of the requirements of this article. (h) The department may return a person to the qualified inspector list when the condition that caused the department to remove that person from the list has been corrected.
Under 410 IAC 38 § 410-38-4-4, the Indiana Department of Health maintains a publicly accessible list of inspectors who have been vetted and approved to inspect and remediate properties contaminated by methamphetamine or other regulated substances. The list is available in person, by mail, by phone, and online, allowing property owners, local health departments, and the general public to confirm whether a specific inspector meets the state's qualifications. Inclusion on the list carries no property rights, and the department retains authority to remove inspectors who fail to maintain required standards or who request removal in writing.
Plain English — not legal advice.
Property owners dealing with contaminated properties under 410 IAC 38 § 410-38-4-4 generally rely on the qualified inspector list to identify and verify state-approved inspectors before engaging cleanup services. Compliant operators typically confirm that any inspector they hire appears on the department's current list, which can be checked online through the Indiana Department of Health's website or by calling (317) 233-7173. Using a listed inspector helps demonstrate that remediation work was performed by a person who has met the department's established criteria.

Under 410 IAC 38 § 410-38-4-4, tenants who have concerns about whether a property has been properly inspected or remediated can use the Indiana Department of Health's qualified inspector list to verify the credentials of any inspector involved in the process. The list is publicly accessible online, by phone, or in person at the department's Indianapolis office, giving tenants a straightforward way to check an inspector's standing. Tenants with broader concerns about contaminated housing conditions may also consider reaching out to their local health department or a tenant-rights organization for additional guidance.
