GOVERNMENT OF SIKKIM TOURISM DEPARTMENT

GANGTOK, SIKKIM

NOTIFICATION

No.08 /TD Date: 30/10/2010 In view of the large number of adventure sports activities being conducted in the State of Sikkim and the manifold increase in the number of people participating in such activities the State Government has deemed it appropriate to prescribe with immediate effect the following ‘Basic Minimum Standards’ (BMS) and guidelines to regulate all such activities and a ‘Standing Operating Procedure’ for Search and Rescue in case of any mishap or accident:- A. BASIC MINIMUM STANDARDS/GUIDELINES Permission to a person for undertaking any land based, air based or water based adventure sports activity in the State shall be given by the Tourism department subject to the laws, rules and orders of the Government including in respect of royalty/fees and the person(s)/operators fulfilling the Basic Minimum Standards as outlined in the paragraphs below. In the case of foreigners and entry into restricted/protected permission will be given only after approval of the competent authority prescribed in regard to same. 1. LAND BASED ACTIVITIES (i) Climbing of Peaks/Mountain Expeditions (a) Application - These guidelines apply to climbers and specifically to commercial operators who offer to guide or accompany climbers above Base Camp for climbing peaks above 5000mtrs or comparable peaks and also operators who offer limited facilities. It also concerns operators who supply transport, High Altitude porters and other services to Base Camp.

(b) Information to Clients - A variety of operators or organizations offer to take clients to peaks above 5000 mts or comparable peaks. They vary from those who provide a full service to the summit or nearly to the summit, to those who offer minimal support for clients above Base Camp. At present it is difficult for clients to deduce from their brochures exactly what is offered in terms of guidance and support and whether it corresponds to their needs. These guidelines will, therefore, also help the climbers in making an informed choice. Prior permission from the Indian Mountaineering Foundation, New Delhi is necessary for climbing peaks above 20,000 ft. (c) List of peaks of altitude around 6000 mtrs and below opened for Alpine expedition and their grading and other parameters is given at Annexure - I. (d) Danger Awareness - Mountaineers climbing at very high altitude, especially above 5000 mtrs, are at considerable stress to their mental and physical powers and may not be capable of assisting others. This fact is of particular importance to mountaineers of limited experience who rely on professional guides to bring them safely up and down. They should be made aware that the risk involved in climbing at high altitudes is such that a degree of self-reliance is necessary. (e) The Leader or Chief Guide and as many as possible of the guides should have high altitude experience appropriate to the altitude of the peak to be climbed. He/She must have been a member of at least three climbing expeditions above 5000 mtrs and must have completed Basic Mountaineering Course and qualified on first aid. (f) All members of the mountaineering expedition should be adequately qualified for taking part in sport. Basic course certificate issued by Sonam Gyatso Mountaineering Institute at Gangtok or any recognized Mountaineering Institute should be considered adequate for this purpose.

The guides and porters must be well taken care of especially beyond the first Base Camp. (h) An experienced doctor in the party is very desirable but at the very least advance arrangements must be made for medical help. Advance arrangements must also be made for evacuation assistance in case of emergency. (i) The minimum safety equipment available must be walkie-talkie radios and recommended medical supplies. (j) Advertising by tour operators/organizers must give a true picture of the difficulties and dangers involved and avoid promising the impossible. Biographical information about the guiding team should be included.

(l) All equipment on which life is dependent must be UIAA or CE certified. (m) Before commencement of the expedition, the Liaison Officer and Team Leader, as the case may be, must compulsorily declare the biodegradable as well as non-biodegradable waste material being carried by the team at the Entry Check Point (ECP) in West Sikkim and at Lachen TIC in North Sikkim. They must bring back all the waste to the ECP/TIC. Photo evidence is to be included in the expedition report. Discovery of non-compliance would invite suitable punitive action. (ii) Rock Climbing Expedition (a) The Leader/ Chief Instructor and as many as possible of the instructors should be trained and certified by Sonam Gyatso Mountaineering Institute at Gangtok or any recognized Mountaineering Institute. (b) Rock Climbing may be done only in areas designated for the activity. It should be ensured that the instructor/ leader is familiar with the climbing area. (c) Ropes and associated climbing equipment designed specifically for Rock Climbing should be used and it should be re-inspected by the instructor prior to the climb. (d) A first aid kit should be available on site as also suitable means for transporting an injured climber. (e) Design an emergency action plan and communicate it to all involved in the programme.

He/ She must be qualified on first aid. (b) The guides, porters and staff for the trek and the materials supplied must be adequate for the aims of the party and stated level of service offered. The expedition must make provisions for the accommodation of the porters as well. (c) Camping must be done in the designated camping spots as notified by the Forest, Wildlife & Environment Department/Tourism Department.

(d) Trekking must be done in the designated trekking trails as identified by the Forest, Wildlife & Environment Department/ Tourism Department, Government of Sikkim/ MHA, Government of India.

(f) Single Raft Trips - Some of the worst accidents in river running internationally have occurred where there has been only one raft. There should be at least two rafts on the water i.e. two rafts or kayaks or a raft and a safety kayak. This may be relaxed for float trips (maximum grade II) in the case of rafts. For kayaks a minimum of two or preferably three is always recommended (g) Kit - All trips must carry a well-equipped first aid kit (it must have triangular bandages, sterile pads, gauze roller bandages, first aid adhesive tape, splints, scissors as bare minimum), a repair kit (it must contain approx. half meter of repair material), sufficient amount of fuel and accelerator, sand paper or roughing tool and waterproof repair tape/ duck tape. Oar rafts must carry at least one spare oar. All rafts must have a safety line going all around the raft, a bowline and preferably a stern line as well. All rafts must have a throw bag and a bailing bucket. A flip line is recommended for all big drops. (h) Personal River Equipment - All rafters/ kayakers MUST have a life jacket on at all times while on water. This includes the guides also. The life jackets must have adequate buoyancy (minimum of 6.14 kgs and preferable 9-10 kgs), must be the proper type (US Coast Guard Type III or V) with a provision of ensuring a snug fit by straps etc. and should be worn correctly. Inflatable life jackets and the ‘keyhole’ type jackets are not recommended. Guides must ensure that the life jackets are on in a secure manner before the trip starts and above all major drops. Helmets are mandatory on all rapids and it is recommended that helmets be kept throughout the trip. The helmet should be properly strapped. (i) Age Limit - Fourteen years on all stretches except float trips (grade II and below) where it may be relaxed to ten years.

People suffering from any serious ailments, week heart conditions, epilepsy and expecting mothers should not be allowed. Non-swimmers should not be allowed to body surf. Shoes/ appropriate sandals/ booties are a must for rafting. Appropriate clothing must be worn during winter on glacial melt rivers with cold air temperatures. For such rivers, dry suits/ wet suits are recommended. If not, light woolen/ synthetic clothes are a must. Trips must be timed carefully to finish at least an hour before sunset. (l) People who have consumed alcohol in any form or quantity or illicit drugs at least six hours prior to the river trip must not be allowed to participate.

(p) A Safety and Rescue Kayaker must be thoroughly trained and experienced in all safety norms, river rescue and first aid/ CPR. A minimum of thirty days on the river is mandatory before kayaking with commercial trips. 3. AIR BASED ACTIVITIES

Aero sports have the highest skill requirements. They also have the highest risk element and anything that goes wrong hardly gives an opportunity for corrective action. Accordingly, adherence to safety guidelines must be followed meticulously. Generally, the following principles need to be adopted:-

(a) The equipment used in each aero-sport must be defined in terms of its specifications, certifying agency and its life (shelf life and usage life) as defined by the manufacturer who for the purpose must hold a valid authorization for manufacturing the particular aero-sports equipment.

(b) Instructor/ operator qualification is very important. It is not enough to have an initial certificate or qualification. Currency and continued evaluation in terms of safety and skill needs to be carried out.

(i) Paragliding (a) All paragliding activities in the State should have necessary permission / clearance of the DGCA, Government of India. (b) All airborne adventure sports operators must obtain clearance of the DGCA and the local district administration and police stations must be kept informed of their activities. (c) Operators must have access to safe and open take off points in case of hill launches. The take off point should be free from obstructions in the take off path and should not have rock or crops which could injure the participant. Cliff take off points must strictly not to be used.

(d) The operator must have free and clear access to a designated landing ground free of obstructions such as tall trees, buildings, electric wires, etc. (e) First aid must be available at site with Qualified First Aid Instructors (having additional knowledge of related accidents) with arrangements with a nearby hospital for quick emergency services. (f) Wind conditions should be strictly monitored and the activity must be done within the weather conditions stipulated by the equipment manufacturer. (g) Paragliding wings must have APCUL DHV or CEN certification. Such certification should be stitched on the wing and visible for inspection. Harness should be with back protection and harness must be fitted with round type certified rescue parachute. (h) Helmets and ankle shoes are compulsory. (i) Proper log books must be maintained for all equipment. (j) Annual inspection and certification of equipment for air worthiness must be carried out. (k) The pilots engaged for the operation must hold valid certificate from an accredited Paragliding flying Institute certifying the individual for operation of Tandem and other Paragliding flights. (l) Garbage should be suitably disposed at the designated sites failing which suitable punitive action may be taken. (ii) Bunjee Jumping (a) The Leader/ Chief Instructor and as many as possibly of the instructors should be trained and certified by a recognized National Institute. (b) All parts of the jump line must be duplicated. This extends from the connection of the bungee to the jumper and the connection to the structure at the other end of the line. Normally the jumper has an attachment to ankle straps and another to a body or sit harness. (c) Equipment (harnesses, karabiners) should be of sound construction and suitable for this use. Mountaineering equipment from reputable suppliers is appropriate. Karabiners should be of the screw gate type. (d) At least 2 braided ropes should be used and matched to the weight of the jumper; they should be to BS 3F 70 1991: specification for heavy duty braided rubber cord, or to a demonstrably similar standard.

(e) Normally one unbraided rope is adequate because of the in-built redundancy from its structure of approximately one thousand individual strands bound together. Each rope should have an examiners certificate from an independent source and be selected according to the weight of the jumper. (f) Rope log books should be kept describing maximum load and numbers of jumps and drop tests undertaken, and in the case of unbraided ropes, any other conditions required by the examiner (e.g. length of time in sunlight). Ropes have a finite life and operators should be able to demonstrate that this has not been exceeded. (g) The procedure before allowing a jumper should cover at least (i) a medical enquiry; (ii) age verification – if under 18, parental consent should be required and if under 14 the person should not be allowed to jump; (iii) weighing and rope selection; there should be a method of checking that the weight of the jumper has been correctly measured and recorded so as to ensure that the correct rope is selected for each jumper; (iv) attachment of each part of harness and ropes, and the checking of each action by a second trained person; (v) briefing of jumper; (vi) entry into and riding in cage, where cranes are involved; (vii) re-instruction and jump; and (viii) retrieval of jumper. (h) Use of mobile cranes is not recommended. If allowed for a short period, particular attention should be paid to the sitting, selection of crane capacity and safe operation of the crane. The result of a crane overturn could be multiple fatalities. The operators must have contingency plans to deal with such situations and keep the area cordoned to prevent injuries to spectators. (i) Training of personnel is of paramount importance. Each job undertaken requires a different level of training and experience. Those in charge should be able to demonstrate that everyone who is carrying out a task has enough experience to do so, unless under direct supervision by another experienced person. There should be a proper training schedule showing how a person progresses from one level of competence to the next. The schedule of work should clearly state who carries out safety critical action and who checks it. Each person should know the tasks which they are permitted to carry out and those which they are not authorized to do. To date, all known fatal accidents world wide have resulted from human error. (j) The person in overall charge should keep close control of the site. Arrangements should be made to exclude spectators from the jump zone for their own safety and to avoid distraction of the operators. (k) Anyone in cage should be securely attached to it. Spectator riding, especially by children, should be discouraged. (l) There should be a dead-weight drop test of the whole line at the beginning of the day to ensure its integrity.

(m) Spares for all the components in the jump line should be kept onsite so as to be available for immediate replacement of suspect components. (n) An air bag should be used for jumps over land with unbraided ropes. The purpose of the bag is to prevent a jumper striking the ground if an incorrect rope selection is made. It is not to safeguard jumpers who fall due to a failure to properly connect them to the supporting structure. Braided ropes to BS 3F 70 have an outer covering which tightens when stretched. Unbraided ropes do not, so there is more risk of a jumper descending too far if a wrong rope selection is made. If a jump is made over water with an unbraided rope, relying on the water to perform the function of the airbag, steps should be taken to ensure that there are no obstructions under the water surface. In addition, suitable arrangements should be made for rescue from the water. (o) Garbage should be suitably disposed at the designated sites failing which suitable punitive actions may be taken. 4.
