FIRE INDUSTRY BULLETIN 2016-002
SCOPE
Fire sprinkler and fire alarm related plan review times from July 6th, 2016 through July
19th, 2016.
PURPOSE
The purpose of this industry bulletin is to notify applicable stakeholders regarding fire
sprinkler and fire alarm related plan review times during the period noted above.
INFORMATION
Fire sprinkler and fire alarm related plan review times will be significantly impacted as
staffing levels will be reduced during this time period. Stakeholders should plan well in
advance to ensure necessary plans have been prepared and submitted in the
intervening period, as fire sprinkler and fire alarm related plan review wait times are
anticipated to be extended. Should the current volume of plan submittals remain
unchanged, plan review wait times may increase from the normal 7 to 12 business days
to up to 30 business days.
As plan review turnaround times increase, stakeholders are advised to plan their
projects and submittals accordingly. It is the Department’s intent to reduce the plan
review times back to 7 to 12 business days as quickly as possible during the month of
August.
NOTE
This notice is effective June 1st, 2016 and will expire on August 1st, 2016.
“To protect and put service above all else.”
