Les:
Unfortunatly, we have no ststewide property maintenance code that this would fall under. Once a job is finaled (CO/CA, etc) we (AHJ's) have no legal jurisdiction over covered/blocked panels, etc.

Heck, I heard a 'tale' of an EC who after the final on one house; took the bubble covers to the next house! It happened once, and, trust me, it won't happen again.
