During the construction or substantial modification of a ski lift, with the exception of drag lifts, the foundations, anchorages and superstructures of ski lifts, excluding moving parts or parts subject to wear and tear, are subject to a technical inspection covering their design and execution. This inspection is carried out by a technical inspector chosen by the project owner from among the inspectors approved in application of the provisions of article L. 125-3 of the French Construction and Housing Code, in compliance with the rules and subject to the penalties laid down by this code for compulsory technical inspections.
