The Fire Prevention (FP) team is responsible for all aspects of fire, life and panic safety within the campus community. Through authority delegated by the California State Fire Marshal, they review and approve all building plans, new construction and tenant improvements; inspect existing facilities; review and approve special events and pyrotechnic displays; and conduct fire investigations. The fire prevention staff also provides code consultation and fire safety training and education to staff, faculty and students. Additionally, staff coordinates with local fire departments to familiarize them with campus facilities.
