Conveyance Section

Per The Elevator and Escalator Certification Act, the Division of Oil and Public Safety (OPS) is the implementing agency for regulation of elevators, escalators, automatic people movers (APM) and other hoisting and lowering mechanisms as described in the Act.  With the assistance of an Advisory Board, which includes representatives of local government and industry, OPS has developed and implemented emergency regulations to enforce the Act.  These emergency regulations will be in place for 90 days or until permanent regulations are promulgated.  Please refer to the links below for further information.
