Relating to: exempting certain agricultural warehouses from automatic fire sprinkler requirements.

Summary

The bill creates a new statutory exemption that stops local governments from requiring automatic fire sprinkler systems in warehouses built after the effective date that primarily store bulk fertilizers or pesticides. The exemption applies only if the warehouse meets specific conditions, such as secondary containment for liquid bulk chemicals and a written notice to the local fire chief that water should not be used on a fire. Other fire detection or suppression requirements may still be imposed.
