"Fire Prevention and Protection Code" any one heard of this?

[BSSTG]

Greetings all once again,

We are in the process of recodifying our municipal ordinances and in our fire code chapter we had previously adopted this "Fire Prevention and Protection Code" edition unknown way back when. Me I've never heard of it. I'm not coming up with it in searches either.

thanks

Byron

SBCCI had a Fire Prevention Code. Never heard of a "Fire Prevention and Protection Code" is it a seperate book or part of your ordinances?

NFPA 1 used to be the Fire Prevention Code. What state are you in?

Yea I've found the Fire Prevention Code. It can still be obtained from ICC. I think this was a mistake in the ordinance. Bear in mind, we have one of the old housing codes still in effect that is not even in print anymore. I'm just glad that our city charter requires recodification every 10 years. I'm doing my dangedest to clear up a lot of this stuff.

By the way, my thanks to all on this website for helping me out with this stuff. Being the only code guy in town it's tough on an old ditch digging electrcian. Come to think of it, I miss digging ditches some time.

BS

A Google search for "Fire Prevention and Protection Code" lists many states, counties and cities that use that title

Never heard of that specific phrase for a "Fire Prevention Code" except for titles in various jurisdictional ordinance language like CD mentioned.
