(e) Declaring restricted‑access sites in accordance with paragraphs 92 to 96.
90. Access to buildings and other structures shall be deferred until after the approval of the continuation of the on‑site inspection in accordance with Article IV, paragraph 47, except for access to buildings and other structures housing the entrance to a mine, other excavations, or caverns of large volume not otherwise accessible.  For such buildings and structures, the inspection team shall have the right only of transit, as directed by the inspected State Party, in order to enter such mines, caverns or other excavations.
91. If, following the approval of the continuation of the inspection in accordance with Article IV, paragraph 47, the inspection team demonstrates credibly to the inspected State Party that access to buildings and other structures is necessary to fulfil the inspection mandate and that the necessary activities authorized in the mandate could not be carried out from the outside, the inspection team shall have the right to gain access to such buildings or other structures.  The head of the inspection team shall request access to a specific building or structure indicating the purpose of such access, the specific number of inspectors, as well as the intended activities.  The modalities for access shall be subject to negotiation between the inspection team and the inspected State Party.

Each restricted‑access site shall have clearly defined and accessible boundaries.
93. The size, location, and boundaries of restricted‑access sites shall be presented to the head of the inspection team no later than the time that the inspection team seeks access to a location that contains all or part of such a site.
94. The inspection team shall have the right to place equipment and take other steps necessary to conduct its inspection up to the boundary of a restricted‑access site.
95. The inspection team shall be permitted to observe visually all open places within the restricted‑access site from the boundary of the site.
96. The inspection team shall make every reasonable effort to fulfil the inspection mandate outside the declared restricted‑access sites prior to requesting access to such
