Section 296-96-00600. What rules apply to your conveyance?

Elevators and other conveyances must comply with the rules adopted by the department that were in effect at the time the conveyance was permitted, regardless of whether the rule(s) has been repealed, unless any new rule specifically states that it applies to all conveyances, regardless of when the conveyance was permitted. Copies of previous rules adopted by the department are available upon request.

Please note, if the conveyance is altered the components associated with the alteration must comply with all of the applicable rules adopted by the department in effect at the time the conveyance alteration was permitted. If the department determines that a conveyance was altered without a permit and inspection, the alteration will be required to comply with the applicable rules adopted by the department at the time the noncompliant alteration was identified.
