(b) Marine inspectors must have free entry at all times to those parts of the plant where material subject to this subchapter is being manufactured. The manufacturer must provide marine inspectors all reasonable facilities to satisfy them that the material is being manufactured in accordance with the requirements of the Commandant.
(c) Unless otherwise authorized, required tests and inspections described in applicable specifications must be made at the place of manufacture prior to shipment.
