# §160.151-49. Approval of servicing facilities at remote sites.


A servicing facility may be approved for servicing liferafts at a remote site, provided that appropriate arrangements have been made to ensure that each such site meets the requirements of §§ [160.151-41(e)](/cfr/46/160.151-41.md?p=e), [160.151-43](/cfr/46/160.151-43.md), and [160.151-45](/cfr/46/160.151-45.md). The facility must have a portable assortment of test equipment, spare parts, and replacement survival equipment to accompany the technician doing the servicing. However, if repair of liferafts will not be attempted at a remote site, equipment needed for repair does not need to be available at that site. A facility must be specifically authorized in its letter of approval to conduct servicing at a remote site.
