Bill > HB3781

This bill amends the Sprayed Fire-Resistant Material Applicator Act to establish a clear maximum fee limit for administrative processes related to fire-resistant material applicators. Specifically, the bill limits any fees established by the Office (likely the Office of the State Fire Marshal) to no more than $25, which can include registration and processing fees. These fees will be deposited into the Fire Prevention Fund and are generally nonrefundable, with the exception of accidental overpayments. The bill requires the Office to adopt rules for administering and enforcing the Act by July 1, 2025, which is also the date the bill itself will take effect. This legislation appears aimed at providing transparency and predictability for professionals working with sprayed fire-resistant materials by capping potential administrative costs at a modest $25 per fee.
