If no physical modification is involved, the department or local health authority may waive the requirement for submission of plans if an inspection by the department or local health authority indicates that the proposed school meets the requirements of this subchapter.(b) The use of modular or mobile buildings in response to temporary or permanent closure of the existing school facility, segments thereof, or classroom overflow may be granted a one-year written exemption from the requirements of ARM 37.111.804 by the department or local health authority.
