Wisconsin Administrative Code › Department of Transportation › Chapter Trans 313 - Breath Alcohol Ignition Interlock Devices › Section Trans 313.09 - Statewide service

Current through June 24, 2024
(1) In order to ensure that devices are
			 available to persons in all areas of the state, as a condition of approval and
			 use in the state of Wisconsin, each device must include an affirmation from the
			 device manufacturer, vendor of the device, or a service provider that it will
			 agree to take assignments to unserved areas of the state of Wisconsin in
			 accordance with this section.
(2)
			 The department shall monitor the service center sites throughout Wisconsin. If
			 the department determines that any place in Wisconsin is not within 75 miles of
			 a fixed, permanent service center, the department shall randomly select one of
			 the entities that made an affirmation under sub. (1) and require that entity to
			 establish a service center or provide a mobile service center in the unserved
			 area. If a second or subsequent area of Wisconsin is determined not to be
			 within 75 miles of a fixed, permanent service center, the department shall
			 randomly select an entity that made an affirmation under sub. (1) other than
			 the ones selected previously and require that entity to establish a service
			 center or provide a mobile service in the unserved area. If all entities that
			 make affirmations under sub. (1) have been required to provide service centers
			 under this subsection, the process of randomly selecting entities shall be
			 repeated.
(3) A manufacturer or
			 vendor shall notify the department in writing at least 7 days before a fixed,
			 permanent service center closes or a fixed, permanent service center moves to
			 another address. In the event a fixed, permanent service center moves, the
			 manufacturer or vendor shall provide the department with the address of the new
			 fixed, permanent service center location or notice that service to the area of
			 the fixed, permanent service center will be provided by a mobile service center
			 at least 7 days before the scheduled service center move. In the event of an
			 emergency, such as a flood, fire, riot, or weather-related event affects a
			 service center, the manufacturer or vendor shall provide the department with
			 notice of the effect of the emergency event on the service center and its plans
			 for re-establishing service at that location or moving the service center to a
			 new location as soon as reasonably possible.
(4) A manufacturer or vendor shall provide
			 the department with at least 7 days' advance notice of discontinuing mobile
			 service to any part of the state. Service may not be discontinued to any
			 location assigned to an affirmant under sub. (2) unless the affirmant can show
			 that a different entity is providing service in that area.
Under s. Trans 313.07 (1) (h), device approval for use in the
				  state of Wisconsin may be revoked, suspended or denied if an entity that made a
				  service provider affirmation under sub. (1) fails to provide reasonable service
				  in an area assigned to the service provider under sub.
				  (2).
