LB435

Nebraska LB435 amends the Conveyance Safety Act, changing investigation procedures, eliminating variances, and modifying licensing requirements.

Nebraska LB435 revises the Conveyance Safety Act by altering the process for requesting investigations into alleged violations. It mandates that the State Fire Marshal or state elevator inspector perform a preliminary inquiry into any reported violations. If reasonable grounds for a violation are found, a formal investigation is initiated. The bill also eliminates the ability to grant variances from safety regulations, replacing it with the option to request equivalency.
