024-9 Wyo. Code R. §§ 9-1 - General Provisions

(a) Inspections shall be done throughout the year on all concession facilities by Park Superintendents and/or Division staff.

(b) A Concession Inspection Report forms will be used to ensure all specific requirements are met and for documentation, regardless of whose responsibility.

(c) Generally, the inspection will be announced. However, limited prior notice may be given when necessary to ensure that the Concessionaire or their designated representative will be available to accompany the Division personnel performing the inspection. Discretion should be used regarding appropriate time frames. For example, restaurant inspections will not be conducted during busy meal periods.

(d) Inspections should be performed at least annually. Concessions with continued problems or violations may be inspected and evaluated as often as necessary to address the particular situation(s). Non-conforming concessions may require more frequent inspections.

(e) Inspections may also be performed by other government agencies including but not limited to the Department of Environmental Quality, Division of Consumer Health, Department of Agriculture, State Fire Marshall, BuRec and others as determined by the Division Director or required by federal and/or state law.

(f) The Division Director may require a concession to close for business temporarily when safety violations are present or there is a lapse in insurance coverage. Under these circumstances, the concession will not be allowed to reopen until the violations have been corrected to the satisfaction of the Division Director. Should this occur more than twice in one year the Division Director, with the approval of the Department Director, may terminate the contract.

(g) The inspection forms will be filed and may be used as a reference during the RFP procedure when current or past Concessionaires are competing for a contract. Concessionaires may be awarded extra points for having provided quality service to the public, documented by, but not limited to:

(i) Visitor surveys.

(ii) Letters from the public.

(iii) Telephone calls.

(iv) Inspection reports.

(v) Contract compliance.
