Home My WebLink About2015 - Fire Dept. Inspection Notes; Incident Reports a_ _ _ __ ._._ . _ __ _ _ _ _ _ �►5 � Based on a recent site visitation to the Cape Cod Inflatable Park 518 Route 28,the Yarmouth Fire Department has the following safety concerns: 1. No posting of capacity for the park. A. What is the capacity? (a) Based on parking spaces 167 for the park x 3=501 B. Is a count maintained? C. Is it managed? 2. Park exits A. Are there sufficient exits? B. Are they marked? C. Is there proper signage? 3. Emergencyplan � A. No written emergency plan B. What is the level of training for employees?Crowd management? C. Has a life safety evaluation taken place? D. Security 4. Communication between employees A. No radios, central base system B. No public address system 5. Fall risks around the inflatables A. Have the fall zones around the inflatables been evaluated? B. Playground requirements 6. Certification of new large inflatables A. As of this date the new inflatable have not been certified by the Massachusetts Department of Public Safety. A general review of current Massachusetts codes indicates a variety of state and local regulatory authority over the Inflatable Park.These codes appear specific to various sections of the park. For example the Massachusetts Department of Public Safety has CMR 520 which licenses and regulates amusement devises. Included in this code are both large and small inflatables.CMR 520 is specific to the devise, not the area around the devise or the park in general. Massachusetts State Building Code is specific to the type of occupancy assigned to a building, not necessarily the area around the building. The concerns that the Yarmouth Fire Department has, relate to the "Park" in general.The Yarmouth Fire Department recommends the following: 1. Review/assessment of current conditions at the park including the following;capacity,exits, communication,and injuries. 2. The development of an emergency plan-requirements based on the Massachusetts Fire Safety Code 527CMR1 and National Fire Protection Agency 101 Life Safety Code 2015. 3. Training and certification of Crowd Managers-527CMR120.1.5.6 II I � r , _ _ ___ _ __ __ _ _.__ __ _ _ __ : ; 4. Assessment of fall risk around each inflatable.-application of playground safety to the � Inflatable park(6.06 CMR 7.07)a recent report written by Worcester Polytechnic Institute I for the Consumer Product Safety Commission endorsed this concept. "Playgrounds have much in common with inflatable amusements.They are both primarily for children; used by multiple participants at once; and have numerous reports of children being injured on them. Because of these similarities it would not be unreasonable to apply standards for playground equipment to address similar injuries reported with the use of inflatable � amusements." 1 � A.
