The State of Tennessee has no formal inspection program.  In fact with  the
losses in the apiary division a few years ago, while we have a "State
Apiarists"  I am not 100% sure there is anyone to inspect even if you  request it.
Used to be you could call up and an inspector would come  see you when he was in
that section of the State.  Once that position was  gone, well....

I know there is a program or was a program here where "experts" in clubs
would inspect and get a fee from the state for the inspection.  But wether  its
still going or not I cant say, maybe someone on here will know.  There  is no
legal requirement for inspection, nor registration of hives, so its pretty
loose here.
