					 Division shall initiate the inspection before the date indicated by the
					 operator for commencement of public operation of the ride, and shall make a
					 reasonable effort to complete the inspection prior to that date. If the

					 inspection is not attributable to the action or inaction of the owner or
					 operator, the ride may by opened to the public until the inspection is
					 completed, unless there is a substantial reason to question the safety of the
					 ride.
(4) The ride owner or
					 operator shall ensure that a representative is present to operate the ride and
					 perform the tests requested by the Division QSI as necessary to complete the
					 operational inspection.

Current through Register 2024 Notice Reg. No. 28, July 12, 2024
(a) If, after inspection by a Division QSI,
					 the Division determines that a permanent amusement ride, or any part thereof,

					 Division shall frame the scope of the prohibition with the narrowest scope
					 reasonably necessary to ensure the protection of the public.

						Prohibiting Operation if the hazardous or unsafe condition can be corrected
						immediately and the operator, after being informed of the condition by the
						Division, immediately abates the hazardous or unsafe condition.
EXCEPTION NO. 2: If an unsafe condition does not
						constitute an imminent hazard to patrons, the Division shall, prior to issuing
						an Order Prohibiting Operation, engage in an informal consultation with the
						owner or operator in an effort to resolve any factual questions or gather
						information relevant to determining whether the public operation of the
						amusement ride should be prohibited.
(b) The Division shall notify the owner or
					 operator in writing of the grounds for prohibition of operation and of the
					 conditions in need of correction at the time it issues the Order Prohibiting
					 Operation.

					 at the designated time, and the Division is therefore required to reschedule
					 the inspection, the Division may bill for the time its inspector spends
					 traveling to the site of the rescheduled inspection(s) at the one hundred and
					 ninety-five dollar ($195.00) hourly rate.
