(There is no guarantee that inspections can be scheduled and homologations completed for any applications submitted after October 15)

Completed reports with required documentation normally are due:

* FIS homologation includes USSA homologation for same event on that course
** Exception – U.S. Ski & Snowboard GS and SL on same trail, one common report:              $150.00 per course

Fees for FIS and U.S. Ski & Snowboard homologations are due and payable to “U.S. Ski & Snowboard Alpine Course Approvals” and are to be submitted with the application. These fees are applied as the homologation fees, with changes as appropriate following the inspection (additional or refund).

Inspector’s Expenses

Inspectors’ expenses, for both FIS and U.S. Ski & Snowboard homologation or rehomologation, are the responsibility of the venue (place) and must be reimbursed on request of the inspector.

In addition to expenses (travel, meals, etc.) inspectors are paid a daily rate of $120.00 per day for FIS inspections and $75.00 per day for U.S. Ski & Snowboard inspections. Inspectors are paid for travel days of four hours or greater as well as inspection days.

For further information on alpine course homologations, you may wish to contact an inspector near you.  While this may not be the inspector assigned to your ski area in response to your application, he or she can give you more information on requirements and procedures.
