The state board of health shall have the power to establish sanitary regulations for house trailers, house trailer camps, and tourist camps, which shall be called the sanitary code. The sanitary code may include provisions for the sanitary construction, maintenance, regulation, inspection, equipment and control of house trailer camps, tourist camps, and house trailers, and for their registration, with particular and special provisions with respect to plumbing, drainage, water supply and disposal or removal of toilet excretion, garbage and all other waste or refuse substances and accumulations. No house trailer camp, tourist camp, or house trailer shall be located, operated or drawn within this state unless and until it has complied with such provisions. Nothing herein contained shall limit or qualify the power of the state department of health to adopt and enforce other, additional or emergency regulations for house trailer or tourist camps and house trailers whenever the health of the people of this state is endangered or threatened. Every regulation adopted by the state board of health shall state the date on which it takes effect, and a copy thereof, duly signed by the executive officer of the state board of health, shall be filed as a public record in the state department of health and a copy thereof shall be sent by the state board of health to each health officer within the state. The state board of health shall furnish certified copies of such code and its amendments and such certified copies shall be received in evidence in all courts or other judicial proceedings in the state. The provisions of the sanitary code shall have the force and effect of law. Violations of the provisions of the sanitary code relating to house trailer camps, tourist camps, and house trailers are a misdemeanor. Each day on which a violation thereof continues is a separate offense.
