Requires an agency conducting an advisory inspection to notify a person subject to fine or penalty with 10 days of the advisory inspection. Provides that if within 60 days of receiving notice, the person notifies that agency it has corrected the situation (and the agency determines the situation is corrected), the agency may not impose a fine or penalty as a result of the advisory inspection.

Provides that if an agency changes a notice under this section, the person has 60 days from the date of those changes to correct the situation without fine or penalty.
