23-89-515. Nondestructive testing.

(a) An owner may not operate an amusement ride for which the manufacturer recommends nondestructive testing, unless the owner complies with the manufacturer's standards for the testing and the ride meets the manufacturer's acceptance criteria.

(b) If manufacturer's nondestructive testing standards are unavailable for an amusement ride and the Department of Labor deems it necessary, the owner shall provide such standards through a registered professional engineer or engineering agency or any individual qualified by training and experience to compile standards based upon the ride's specifications and history and using accepted engineering practices. The engineer or other qualified individual shall be approved by the Director of the Department of Labor and the ride must meet the criteria so established.
