A person shall not repair a boiler without first obtaining a permit to repair the boiler from the boiler division of the department, unless the repair has been authorized by a licensed inspector pending issuance of the permit, or the repair is emergency maintenance performed by qualified welders regularly employed by a person that utilizes properly qualified welding procedures to weld on boilers owned and operated by the person. All of the following apply for purposes of the permit to repair requirement under this section:
(a) A person is not eligible for a permit if the person is not licensed to repair boilers under this article.

(c) A person shall obtain a permit by submitting an application to the department and including with the application a permit fee in an amount established by the department under article 4. However, a person is not required to pay a permit fee if the person utilizes properly qualified welding procedures and regularly employs qualified welders, registered with the boiler division of the department, to weld on boilers owned and operated by the person.
