  corrections  or  repairs  the  owner shall be so notified and shall have
  such adjustments, corrections or repairs made within a period of  thirty
  days.  If  such  inspection  discloses improper tire pressure, the owner

  establish procedures for reporting the results of such  inspections  and
  for   notifying  the  owners.  The  owner  may  have  such  adjustments,
