(a) Prescribe standards and procedures for calibrating devices used for testing a person’s breath to determine the concentration of alcohol in the person’s breath.

(c) Prescribe the form and contents of records respecting the calibration of such devices which must be kept by a law enforcement agency and any other records respecting the maintenance or operation of those devices which it finds should be kept by such an agency.
