A. Except for the purpose of testing, training, or inspection, no inflatable amusement device, amusement attraction, or amusement ride shall be operated in this state without a current certificate of registration, valid registration plate, and registration decal issued by the office of state fire marshal. B.(1) Each inflatable amusement device, amusement attraction, or amusement ride shall be inspected by a third-party inspector for safety and subjected to nondestructive testing, according to the manufacturer's recommendations, if any, at least annually, in accordance with ASTM-F-24, as promulgated by the state fire marshal in conformity with the Administrative Procedure Act, and other applicable standards, regulations, manuals, manufacturers' specifications, service bulletins, and notices. (2) Upon completion of each inspection as required in this Section, the third-party inspector shall submit a certificate of inspection to the office of state fire marshal and the owner. The certificate shall be valid for not more than twelve months from the date of issuance. (3) If the third-party inspection shows that an inflatable amusement device, amusement attraction, or amusement ride does not comply with all relevant provisions of this Part and the adopted standards, regulations, and applicable manuals, service bulletins, and notices, the third-party inspector shall notify and submit the findings to the state fire marshal within ten days of the inspection. The office of state fire marshal shall issue a cease and desist order to the operator or owner indicating that operation of the inflatable amusement device, amusement attraction, or amusement ride, which does not comply, is to immediately cease in the state. The state fire marshal shall lift any cease and desist order and issue registration plates or registration decals, if applicable, for the inflatable amusement devices, amusement attractions, or amusement rides only when the deficiencies have been remedied to the satisfaction of a third-party inspector and proof of satisfaction is submitted to and approved by the state fire marshal.
