Relates to fire suppression systems and licensing professionals to perform authorized work on fire suppression systems
This bill establishes licensing requirements for professionals working on fire suppression systems (like sprinkler systems) to ensure public safety. It creates a state board to oversee exams and enforce standards, requiring all workers (except public employees of certain employers and those in exempt counties) to hold a valid sprinkler fitter license, apprentice permit, or helper permit. The law defines "authorized work" to include installation, maintenance, and repair, and specifies minimum training and experience standards. Its primary goal is to prevent unsafe work by mandating qualified personnel, directly affecting contractors, installers, and inspectors in the fire suppression industry.
