of occupancy for the factory-built housing or manufactured building. The Division may adopt such regulations as it determines necessary to carry out
its duties pursuant to this section. The regulations may establish fees for inspections and the issuance of certificates
of occupancy. 5. A local government authority may inspect Nevada manufacturers of factory-built

authority must give 10 days' written notice to the Administrator of the Division. The local government authority is not required to give notice to the Administrator
