Purpose


Section 633.202(4), F.S., requires the State Fire Marshal to update, by rule, the Florida Fire Prevention Code every three years. Section 633.202(2), F.S., requires the State Fire Marshal to adopt the current editions of the National Fire Protection Association’s (NFPA) Standard 1, the Fire Code, and NFPA Standard 101, the Life Safety Code®, by reference. The proposed amendments will update the Florida Fire Prevention Code to include the most recently adopted NFPA standards and promulgate the triennial update of the Florida Fire Prevention Code as directed by section 633.202, F.S.
