LZ near water/obstacle

[Skwrl 56]

Hi all,

I'm wondering if some of the TIs here might be able to help answer this question.

Section 2.1(H) of the BSRs states (in part) that:

Quote

Areas used for skydiving should be unobstructed, with the following minimum radial distances to the nearest hazard:

a. solo students and A-license holders—100 meters

b. B- and C-license holders—50 meters

c. D-license holders—unlimited

2. Hazards are defined as telephone and power lines, towers, buildings, open bodies of water, highways, automobiles, and clusters of trees covering more than 3,000 square meters.

In the case of tandem operations, I am assuming that the TI's D license governs (in other words, there's no applicable limit under the BSRs with regard to tandem operations).

Is that right? Are there other rules applicable to LZs for tandem operations not contained in the BSRs?
