NFSA-WI Conducts Survey
The National Fire Sprinkler Association (NFSA-WI
Chapter) has been conducting a survey of fire departments
and municipalities throughout the state in order to determine
their important needs as well as the resources that NFSA-WI
might provide to help upgrade safety codes.
Thank you to the following fire departments
and municipalities that have already completed the survey:
Appleton Fire Department; Hartford, De Pere and Village of
Pleasant Prairie fire and rescue departments; Watertown Building
Safety; City of Two Rivers; Oak Creek; City of Hudson; Altoona;
City of Madison; Germantown; Green Bay; West Bend; North
Shore; City of Brookfield; Oakdale Area; Plymouth; South

Service; West Milwaukee; City of Waukesha; City of Wauwatosa;
Menomonee Falls; Village of Sussex; Greendale, West Allis
fire departments, Town of Buchanan Fire Dept. and Spencer Fire Dept. & Ambulance Service.
Through these surveys, fire and public officials
have shared information such as: NFPA standards formally
adopted by ordinance in their communities; NFPA 25 enforcement
inspection procedures; fire department and/or municipal building
fire sprinkler installation status or plans; and annual verification
of fire pump test practices.
