Oregon Fire Safety Coalition
Appendix P Sprinkling
The Time Is Now!
The Time Is Now!
The Oregon Fire Safety Coalition is working to gain support for the adoption of the proposed model code amendment Appendix P Sprinkling into the 2008 Residential Specialty Code.
 
The Oregon Fire Chiefs Association and the Oregon Fire Marshals Association submitted an Application for Proposed Code Amendment to the Building Codes Division to amend the 2008 Oregon Residential Specialty Code to include Appendix P and allow communities to consider it as a local option.
 
With Appendix P as part of the Residential Specialty Code, communities will have the option to require sprinklers in new residential construction. Without Appendix P as an option some communities may have inadequate fire protection due to residential growth surpassing their ability to provide adequate fire protection resources. Appendix P would only be mandatory if adopted at the local level.
