Facts: |
|
Alternative methods of accessing and exiting the platforms include cargo nets, zip lines, bridges, rope bridges, ladders, etc. If a participant can access the platforms, it is logical that they would be able use the same to exit the platform. Most of these platforms are less than 30 square feet, all are open on five sides, and so, pose little risk of fire or emergency.
Because of the minimal risk posed, these alternative methods of access and exit will not be adverse to public health, safety or welfare.
