AI Summary

This bill mandates that inspections of smoke dampers and fire dampers, which are components of a fire protection system designed to prevent the spread of fire and smoke, must adhere to standards set by nationally recognized organizations. It also allows the state forester and state fire marshal to offer certified inspectors and resources to cities, towns, and counties upon request to assist with these inspections. These provisions apply to fire protection systems regulated by building or fire codes adopted by local governments, and the bill requires these local entities to implement regulations enforcing these new inspection standards by January 1, 2027.
