management and must abide by the policies and
procedures established by that management.
Joint Statement of Understanding

Paragraph 4:
NSP and NSAA recognize the importance of
educating lift evacuation participants as to
appropriate lift evacuation techniques and the
specific implementation details in the ski area lift
evacuation plan. The establishment of necessary
policies and procedures
for
lift evacuation, lift
evacuation training, and the selection of
equipment to be used in conjunction with such
evacuation or training is the sole responsibility of
ski area management.
Patrollers will participate
in lift evacuation and lift evacuation training only
as ski area management shall direct.
Joint Statement of Understanding

Paragraph 6:
It is recognized that ski area management
ultimately supervises and controls many of the
patrolling activities of individual NSP members
and NSP registration units at each ski area.
As
such, it may be asserted that the ski area bears
legal responsibility for such acts of its patrollers. It
is also understood and agreed that there are
services provided by individual NSP members
based upon their training received from NSP.
