Which states require NBR? 2

[heaterguy]

Which states require national board registration for ASME pressure vessels? I believe North Carolina does. Does Michigan also require it?

I suggest that you go to the website of both Michigan and North Carolina to check that out. I have seen a number of vessels in NC that were ASME Code stamped but not registered with the National Board.

Advise that you order the National Board Synopsis. It will giv you all the jurisdictions which require registering with the Board.

The National Board Synopsis is now a free download from their website,

http://www.nationalboard.org.

You must register to download some documents, but there is no charge to do so. One other easy way is to go to their website and click on Jurisdictions/our members and go the the state or Canadian province in question. There you will find links to the actual state websites plus a quick overview.

Also

http://www.authorizedinspector.com

has links to the same and some other good reference info.

I registered and downloaded the synopsis. It was very easy and only took a few hours for my registration to clear. There is a very helpful chart showing which states require NBR. Michigan is not one of them. North Carolina is.
