results of an inspection of the public water system;
(b) A review of the experience in operating
and training of the person holding the certificate as an operator-in-training;
and
(c) Any other reasonably
available and relevant information.
2. Upon the request of the owner of a public
water system serving less than 10,000 persons and the approval of the Division,
a person holding a certificate as an operator-in-training may be the person in
responsible charge of the public water system for not more than 6 months. The

3. Not more than 30 days after approval is
granted pursuant to subsection 2, the Division shall review the status of the

decision regarding an extension must be provided to the public water system at
least 60 days before the expiration of the period specified in the approval
granted pursuant to subsection 2.
4. If an emergency occurs concerning a public
water system, the Division may approve any qualified person as the person in
responsible charge of the public water system for a period of not more than 6
months.
5. Upon request from a

classification lower than the classification of the public water system
pursuant to NAC

vacation and temporary relief of the person in responsible charge during a
12-month period. Not more than 90 days after approval is granted pursuant to
