Sec. 29-206. (Formerly Sec. 19-418f). Operating certificate, inspections, fees.
The department shall enforce the regulations adopted pursuant to section 29-203, and
shall inspect the construction, operation and maintenance of passenger tramways to
determine whether such regulations have been complied with by the operators. Each
passenger tramway shall be thoroughly inspected by a qualified inspector approved by
the department at least once every twelve months. More frequent inspections of any
passenger tramway may be made if the condition thereof indicates that additional inspections are necessary or desirable. As soon as the department inspects and approves any
passenger tramway as being fit for operation, it shall issue to the operator, upon receipt
of a fee of two hundred dollars, a certificate of operation with such conditions and
limitations as the commissioner shall prescribe. Such certificate shall be valid for twelve
months and shall be renewed yearly, if the department approves the passenger tramway,
upon payment of a renewal fee of one hundred dollars. No passenger tramway may be
operated without such operating certificate.
