Occupant Shelter
Shelter for the vehicle occupants can be provided in a separate shelter similar to those
specified for ECFs, or within the inspection office as specified in section 7-5.1.
7-5.3
Cargo Handling Equipment and Storage
Although advanced inspection equipment is designed to inspect the contents of a
suspect vehicle without opening or removing the cargo, it is anticipated that removal of
cargo will be necessary at times for a complete inspection. In addition, current
inspection procedures frequently require the removal of all or portions of the cargo in
the suspect vehicle. Therefore the truck inspection station should have cargo handling
equipment and storage areas to provide temporary storage of material removed from
suspect vehicles. The size of this area should be based on the anticipated demand.

ADDITIONAL DESIGN GUIDELINES
Follow the requirements and guidelines in paragraphs 6-9 through 6-21, as modified in
the following sections, for the design of the large vehicle inspection facility.
7-6.1
Electrical Power Requirements
Electrical design should consider current power demands as well as the power
requirements for future traffic control devices, identification equipment, and other
devices associated with potential automation of the inspection station. This includes an
allowance for the power demands of future vehicle inspection equipment, such as fixed
large vehicle x-ray devices. See paragraph 7-3 for additional information concerning
vehicle inspection equipment.
