Description
Successful implementation of the Fire Marshal’s mission is accomplished by over 100 Fairfax County employees who are trained and certified to enforce a variety of fire prevention regulations including portions of the Uniform Statewide Building Code. In addition to services provided during regular business hours, on-duty fire investigators provide coverage 24 hours a day, 7 days a week to respond to and investigate fire and hazardous materials incidents. In addition, a fire inspector is on-call after regular business hours to investigate reports of life-threatening or dangerous fire code violations and to respond to buildings with out-of-service fire protection systems to ensure that the systems are repaired and fire protection is maintained.
Mission: To prevent the inception or recurrence of fire and hazardous conditions by providing fire prevention and hazardous materials-related educational, enforcement, inspection, investigative, plans review, and technical services to the businesses, industries, residents, and visitors of Fairfax County and the towns of Clifton, Herndon, and Vienna.
