Last week our Lift Maintenance team met with a Colorado Passenger Tramway Safety Board (CPTSB) engineer for a couple days of annual inspections. For each lift, (6 chairlifts, 2 conveyors, 1 rope tow) we are required to have an individual license to operate. That license is good for one year. Prior to getting a license, each lift is inspected. There are visual inspections. Every button and mechanism is pushed and tested. There is a thorough review of all maintenance records to ensure we are doing all required tasks to meet the various tramway codes. For this year the inspection phase is complete. We have a few remaining administrative and physical tasks to complete. We should see our first licenses by next week and be approved to operate for another year.
