The North Carolina Department of Labor issued a memo to all
amusement device owners stating that effective 8/14/17, all owners of amusement
devices designed with tubular steel components such as sweeps, structural
supports, or tubular steel used in directed connection to passenger carriers,

company. This requirement will be
conducted annually in addition to what is required by the manufacturer of
record for all devices having tubular steel components in its design.
Owners of devices meeting this design description shall take
steps to have their devices testes before they will be certified to operate in
the state of North Carolina. Owners
shall present testing results to the NCDOL Elevator and Amusement Device Bureau
when completed and prior to set up in the state of North Carolina.
