The fire inspection function and the servicing of fire safety equipment is the responsibility of the Campus Police Division. The following procedures have been adapted to guarantee reasonable levels of compliance.

1. Fire Inspections
   1. All fire inspectors, fire safety personnel, insurance company consultants, etc., coming onto campus will be directed to the Campus Police Department where they will be asked to register and where arrangements can be made to provide a suitable escort of any tour(s) of the facility. Whenever possible, representatives of the Physical Plant and/or Campus Police Department will accompany inspectors on their tours of the facility to save time, answer questions, etc.
   2. Citations issued by fire authorities will be directed to the Vice President for Administrative Services through the Chief of Police. The Vice President will assign the responsibility for corrective action to the cognizant administrator with notification of such action to the Chief of Police. The Chief will monitor and report compliance within the deadline(s) established in the citation.
   3. Recommendations for corrective action from insurance company representatives, special consultants, prospective bidders, etc., will be directed to the Chief of Police for distribution to proper authorities.
