KEY IMPRINTING

(a) A credit union that rents or permits access to a safe deposit box shall: (1) imprint all keys issued to the box after September 1, 1992, with its routing number; or (2) issue keys imprinted with the routing number. (b) If available space on a key is insufficient for imprinting the routing number, the credit union shall attach to the key a tag imprinted with the routing number. (c) If a credit union believes that the routing number imprinted on a key, or a tag attached to a key, used to access a safe deposit box has been altered or defaced in a manner that the correct routing number is illegible, the credit union shall notify the Department of Public Safety, on a form designated by the commissioner, not later than the 10th day after the date the key is used to access the box. (d) This section does not require a credit union to inspect the routing number imprinted on a key or an attached tag to determine whether the number has been altered or defaced.
