Enhanced US Fire Administration Powers for Major Fire Investigations
This new law grants the U.S. Fire Administration (USFA) expanded authority to investigate major fires. This will allow experts to thoroughly analyze incidents, aiming to prevent similar tragedies in the future and enhance public safety.
Key points
The USFA can send experts to major fire sites to investigate causes and assess broader issues like building code usage and fire dynamics.
After each investigation, the USFA will issue a public report with recommendations to improve fire safety in buildings, enhance emergency response, and increase civilian safety.
The act also permits investigations of smaller, unusual fires, contributing to a better understanding of rare fire hazards.
