The Fire Department of the São Paulo State Military Police is revising all of its Technical Instructions (ITs), the standards that detail the fire safety requirements for buildings. The proposals are put out for public consultation in batches, and suggestions are sent by email.
According to the consultation page, updated on October 19, seven batches had been published, and the first six have deadlines through November 8. The seventh has the last deadlines: November 13 for thatch and piassava roofing (IT-33) and the urban hydrant (IT-34), and November 15 for the rest.
What is in the last batch
The seventh batch contains the standards on gas handling and storage (IT-28), fireworks (IT-30), helipads and heliports (IT-31), hazardous products (IT-32), historic buildings, museums and cultural institutions (IT-40), environmental protection (IT-44), rail transport (IT-45) and the Simplified Technical Project (IT-42).
Deadlines for the 7th batch
| Technical Instruction | Deadline |
|---|---|
| IT-33, roofing of thatch, piassava and similar materials | November 13 |
| IT-34, urban hydrant | November 13 |
| IT-28, gas | November 15 |
| IT-30, fireworks | November 15 |
| IT-31, helipads and heliports | November 15 |
| IT-32, hazardous products | November 15 |
| IT-40, historic buildings and collections | November 15 |
| IT-42, Simplified Technical Project | November 15 |
| IT-44, environmental protection | November 15 |
| IT-45, rail transport | November 15 |
IT-42 is the one that comes up most in the day-to-day of small businesses. It regulates the Simplified Technical Project, the route to the CLCB (Fire Department License Certificate), used by smaller, lower-risk buildings.
How to take part
Suggestions are sent to the email address dspciconsultapublica@policiamilitar.sp.gov.br, within the deadline for each batch of Technical Instructions (IT). The drafts can be downloaded from the consultation page on the Fire Department portal. Under Article 63 of Decree No. 69.118/2024, every issue or reissue of an IT goes through a public consultation of at least 30 days.
The drafts may still change with contributions. Until the final versions are published, projects, inspections and AVCB and CLCB renewals follow the Technical Instructions currently in force.
What this changes for you
- Anyone getting a CLCB through the Simplified Technical Project can read the draft of IT-42 and send suggestions until November 15.
- To obtain or renew the AVCB or CLCB now, the Technical Instructions currently in force apply.
- Follow the publication of the final versions: that is when the requirements change.
