During what condition must the site controller be physically present?

The requirement for the site controller to be physically present when the Skycoaster is operational centers on the crucial role they play in ensuring the safety and functionality of the ride. During operations, the site controller oversees all activities, ensuring that safety protocols are followed, monitoring equipment status, and responding to any emergencies. This presence is vital as it contributes to the protection of both the riders and the operational staff.

The other circumstances do not require the same level of oversight. Inspections may involve an external team or a different set of trained personnel rather than the site controller being physically present at all times. Safety training sessions might not necessitate the site controller’s direct involvement if proper training personnel are designated. Being present only on weekends does not align with operational safety standards, as the Skycoaster must adhere to regulations at all times whenever it is in use, regardless of the day.
