CONSTRUCTION CODE INSPECTOR 1 MINING

Mining

The licensed working grade above the apprentice. Inspections are made and signed alone, and a failure has to hold up when the contractor asks on what basis the work is being rejected.

The mining designation attaches the title to extraction and processing sites rather than ordinary building work — industrial structures, heavy equipment foundations, and hazards a residential inspector never trains for.
