Årsgebyr for Tilsyn Med Park- Og Tivoliinnretninger Det Kongelige Kommunal- og Moderniseringsdepartment Bolig- og bygningsavdelingen v/ Else-Karin Øvernes Pb. 8112 Dep NO-0032 Oslo Epost: [email protected] Vinterbro, 3.April 2016 Høringsuttalelse – Referanse 15/1368-3 – Årsgebyr for tilsyn med Park- og Tivoliinnretninger I følge med høringsnotat med referanse 15/1368-3 – forslag til nye årsavgifter og gebyrer for tilsyn med Park- og Tivoliinnretninger, oversendes herved vår høringsuttalelse med kommentarer tilknyttet forslaget fra departementet. Gjennom forslaget fremkommer det at departementet ønsker å heve årsgebyr for tilsyn med anslagsvis 10% understøttet av behovet for å dekke kostnadene ved tilsyn. Representantene bak denne høringsuttalelsen stiller seg ikke uforstående til at reguleringer kan være nødvendige, men mener det foreligger mangelfullt grunnlag for forslaget som er fremmet. Dette fremgår av følgende punkter; a) Redegjørelse for hvorfor tilsynet skal være selvfinansierende Gjennom siste 2 år har Jernbanetilsynet gjennomført en evalueringsprosess av tilsynsfunksjonen, hvor aktører fra bransjen har deltatt i prosessen. Et av temaene som ble løftet fra aktørene sin side knyttet seg til hvorfor Park- og Tivolitilsynet skal videreføres som et selvfinansierende tilsyn, til forskjell fra de fleste andre offentlige tilsyn. Representantene er ikke kjent med at det foreligger noe redegjørelse eller grunnlag for en slik vurdering. Det synes hensiktsmessig at man redegjør for konklusjon om hvorfor tilsynet skal videreføres som selvfinansierende, før man vurderer gebyrsatsene, da dette må kunne sees i sammenheng. b) Endringer i lovforslag om gjennomføring av tilsyn - Tivoliloven Høringsnotat for gebyrsatser er sendt ut på samme tidspunkt som det foreligger høringsnotat til en ny Tivolilov, ref. 15/5052-10. Gjennom dette lovforslaget fremgår det at tilsynet har til hensikt å gjennomføre et mer «systembasert» tilsyn. Dette har også vært et emne i evalueringsprosess med Park-og Tivolitilsynet, med sterke synspunkter fra aktører som har deltatt i denne prosessen. Mange representanter innenfor bransjen har uttrykt bekymring for at tilsynet skal endres fra nåværende praktiske tilsynsmetodikk og ende som en ren «byråkratisk» instans. Dette kan potensielt svekke både tilsynets kompetanse innenfor fagområdet, en kompetanse som representantene i dag oppfatter som meget tilfredsstillende, og den tette dialogen som aktørene oppfatter man har med tilsynet per i dag. Dersom tilsynet går bort fra praktisk inspeksjon av innretninger vil trolig mange av aktørene ønske å engasjere annen uavhengig part for tilsvarende kontroll. Slik satsene fremstår i høringsforslaget vil dette innebære både en økning i gebyrsatser, samt mulig økte kostnader for annen uavhengig kontroll for aktørene. Alternativt, dersom det gjennomføres en vridning til et mer systembasert tilsyn, bør det TusenFryd AS, N-1407 Vinterbro, Norway Tlf (+47)64 97 64 97 [email protected] www.tusenfryd.no foreligge åpenbare effektiviseringsmuligheter for tilsynet, noe som ikke synes å være vurdert eller ivaretatt gjennom fremsatte forslag til nye gebyrsatser. Vi mener det bør foreligge en ferdig behandling og konklusjon rundt tilsynsmetodikk, før tilsynet skal kunne være berettiget noen endring i gebyrsatser. Slik representantene kjenner bransjen er man trygge på at sikkerhet har høyeste prioritet for drift av Park- og Tivoliinnretninger, og at aktørene villig bærer de kostnader som er nødvendig for å opprettholde et høyt nivå på sikkerhet også i fremtiden. Det er i denne sammenheng viktig å understreke at høringsuttalelsen er av prinsipiell art, da vi mener det forekommer mangelfull redegjørelse for årsakssammenheng og at man er av oppfatning at rekkefølgen på avklaringer på de høringsnotat som er ute er av vesentlig betydning. Dersom det er ønskelig med ytterligere redegjørelse til høringsuttalelsen ber vi om at Bjørn Håvard Solli kontaktes, som representant for undertegnede aktører.

  • ACE's Scandinavian Sojourn
    ACE’s Scandinavian Sojourn : A Southerner’s Perspective Story by: Richard Bostic, assisted by Ronny Cook When I went on the ACEspana trip back in 2009, it was by far one of the most amazing vacations I have ever experienced. In addition to getting to visit parks in a different culture than we see here, it is also a great opportunity to spend time with fellow enthusiasts and grow friendships while enjoying our common interests. When Scandinavia Sojourn was announced for the summer of 2011, I knew it was a trip I could not miss. Since the 2009 trip was my first trip to Europe I thought that there was no way the over- all experience could be better in Scandinavia. I was wrong. We landed in Helsinki, Finland around 1300 the day before we were required to be at the hotel to meet with the group. Helsinki is an interesting city and fairly new compared to many cities in Europe. Walking around the city you can see the Russian influence in the city’s architecture. In fact, many movies during the cold war would use Helsinki to shoot scenes that are supposed to be set in the Soviet Union. After making our way to the Crowne Plaza Hotel and getting a quick lunch at the hotel restaurant we decided to spend the remaining time that afternoon checking out some of the sites around our hotel. Some of these sites included the Temppeliaukio Church inside of a rock formation, the train station, Routatientori Square and National Theater, and a couple of the city’s art museums.

BOX 11000, 00076 AALTO www.aalto.fi Abstract of master's thesis Author Antti Väisänen Title of thesis Design of Roller Coasters Master programme Building Technology Code ENG27 Thesis supervisor Vishal Singh Thesis advisor Anssi Tamminen Date 24/07/2018 Number of pages 75 Language English Abstract This thesis combines several years of work experience in amusement industry and a litera- ture review to present general guidelines and principles of what is included in the design and engineering of roller coasters and other guest functions attached to them. Roller coasters are iconic structures that provide safe thrills for riders. Safety is achieved using multiple safety mechanisms: for example, bogies have multiple wheels that hold trains on track, a block system prevents trains from colliding and riders are held in place with safety restraints. Regular maintenance checks are also performed to prevent accidents caused by failed parts. Roller coasters are designed using a heartline spline and calculating accelerations in all possible scenarios to prevent rollbacks and too high values of accelerations, which could cause damage to riders’ bodies. A reach envelope is applied to the spline to prevent riders from hitting nearby objects. The speed and curvature of the track combined create acceler- ations that need to be countered with adequate track and support structures. A track cross- section usually consists of rails, cross-ties and a spine, while support structures can vary depending on height and loads.
