Rules Affected
View the affected rules, purpose, and rulemaking statusPurpose
The purpose of this rulemaking is to amend the definitions for amusement rides or structures under WAC 296-403A-100. L&I accepted a rulemaking petition to amend the definition of “Amusement structures” to exclude fixed artificial climbing surfaces built for the sport of rock climbing, including equipment used for climber education and safety, when not located on the same premises as amusement rides. This rulemaking proposes amendments from the petitioner’s request. Additional amendments to WAC 296-403A-100 are also being proposed to bring the rule up-to-date.
