Blackfalds, AB –Effective October 15, 2024, the Blackfalds Fire Department will require Fire Safety Plans for construction, renovation and/or demolition sites with a cost of $5,000 or greater, meant to specifically address fire emergencies. This update follows the National Fire Code for Alberta which came into effect in April of 2020. A $125.00 fee will now be charged for Fire Safety Plans, and will require review and approval. Fire Safety Plans must be submitted at the time of application for construction, demolition, or major alterations.Fire Safety Plans will be reviewed by the Fire Department prior to any work (construction or demolition) commencing.It is the owner’s responsibility to ensure a fire safety plan is prepared and in place, and that both the permit and plan are posted at the construction site until completion or occupancy has been granted.This new requirement improves the safety of all who access construction sites.For more information, please visit the following sites, or use the contact information belowAlberta Standata for Fire Safety Plan Construction and Demolition Sites 19-FCI-004Safety Codes Council Fire Safety Plan Safety Tip SheetFire Safety Plan FormFor more information:Robert CoteFire Chief403.885.4144rcote@blackfalds.ca
