Inflationary Fee Increase of 4% for BPV/OE and Fuels In response to inflationary pressures and to move closer to cost recovery in each program area, TSSA is implementing a 4% fee increase to all fees in the following two program areas, effective May 1, 2023.

The system upgrade will continue through February 28, 2023. Customers of all safety programs (Fuels, Elevating and Amusement Devices, Ski Lifts, Boilers and Pressure Vessels, and Operating Engineers) who have plans to submit requests or applications are urged to do so before February 15 or after February 28, 2023.

TSSA's new Compliance Standards for the following elevating devices take effect on March 1, 2023. Could something like this also be in store for Boilers and Pressure Vessels? Register to join the next live webinar on Tuesday February 21, 2023 at 10:30am to have your say.

To facilitate the processing of requests or applications, we encourage customers of all programs (Fuels, Elevating and Amusement Devices, Ski Lifts, Boilers and Pressure Vessels (BPV), and Operating Engineers) to submit requests or applications before February 9, 2022 or after March 1, 2022. This will spread out the volume of submissions that TSSA receives during the blackout period and make the transition to the new IT solution smoother.
