R805-6-2. Requirements for Access

  (a) Group Qualifications and Approval. A Group seeking access to the University Range must first demonstrate to the Range Operator that the Group is in compliance with the requirements set forth in this section. The Range Operator shall approve a Group's request for access once the Group has submitted satisfactory evidence of the following:

  (i) Group Insurance

  (ii) Liability Waivers

  (iii) Certified Official Status

  (iv) That no Group member is prohibited by State or Federal law from possessing a firearm.

  (b) Reservations. Once a Group's request for access is approved by the Range Operator, the Group may reserve the University Range for use during public hours by filing a Facility Reservation Request Form. Reservations are required and must be made with the Range Operator at least 48 hours prior to the time of use. The Group may contact the Range Operator for current range hours. Because the Range Operator must make prior arrangements in order to allow access to the Naval Science building and the University Range, requests for reservation will not be accepted with less than 48-hours' advanced notice. Reservation requests will be processed on a first-come-first-served basis.

  (c) A Group's use may not interfere with use of the University Range by the University of Utah, including but not limited to use by the NROTC and use by the Utah Precision Marksmanship Society.

  (d) The maximum size of any Group accessing the University Range is eight (8) individuals, including the Certified Official. The maximum number of Group Members firing weapons at any time shall be six (6) individuals. In the event fewer than six (6) shooting lanes are in operation at any time, the maximum number of Group Members firing weapons shall correspond to the number of operational shooting lanes.

  (e) Cost. Each Group Member accessing the range, including the Certified Official, shall pay a fee of $5.00 per session. Fees are deposited in the University of Utah's General Fund to be used for the operation and maintenance of the University Range and are intended to cover costs related to incidental materials, supplies, maintenance, repairs and personnel providing access to the Naval Science building and the University Range.

  (f) No person under the age of fifteen is permitted in the University Range without direct supervision by that person's parent or legal guardian.

  (g) No person may use the University Range under the influence of illicit or prescription drugs or alcohol.

  (h) The Range Operator may deny a request for access based on the failure of any Group to comply with this rule or if the Range Operator concludes that the Group's use of the University Range poses a threat to any person or property.

  (i) The Range Operator may revoke a Group's approval to access the University Range based on any Group Member's failure to follow the Rules of Conduct set forth in this rule, any rules and guidelines posted in the University Range during the Group's use of the University Range, or any of the Range Operator's reasonable requests regarding safety or University Range access.
