Bill > S0286

This bill revises the definition of "Contractor V" to authorize such fire protection system contractors to inspect underground piping for water-based fire protection systems under the direction of a Contractor I or Contractor II. It also expands the design capabilities of Contractor I, II, and IV to include the alteration of existing fire sprinkler systems, as long as the alteration consists of the relocation, addition, or deletion of 249 or fewer sprinklers and does not change the occupancy or water demand. The bill also expands the definition of "fire protection system" to include tanks providing water supply or pump fuel, including piping for such tanks. The bill takes effect on July 1, 2021.
