Each inspection gives rise to a report indicating the non-conformities observed and the improvements to be made, which is sent by its author to the operator and to the Prefect within two months of the inspection.
Within two months of receiving the report, the operator must inform the Prefect of the measures taken to ensure compliance with the safety objective mentioned in the first paragraph of article R. 342-12.
If the operator fails to have the periodic inspection carried out within the specified time, the Prefect may implement the measures provided for in IV of Article L. 342-17.
