Get first-time guidance and a clear process for developing and implementing an effective Community Risk Reduction plan. New for 2016, NFPA 1730: Standard on Organization and Deployment of Fire Prevention Inspection and Code Enforcement, Plan Review, Investigation, and Public Education Operations responds to growing support throughout the United States for communities to engage in community risk reduction. The International Association of Fire Chiefs’ (IAFC) strategic planning platform recognizes the need for the fire service to embrace an integrated approach to the process, and the concept is part of the National Fire Academy curriculum.

  • Community Risk Assessment
  • Fire Prevention Inspection and Code Enforcement Activities in Existing Occupancies
  • Plan Review

    • Investigations

  • Public Education Programs — operations to the public by fire departments and other organizations based on an approved community risk reduction (CRR) plan

Give fire prevention organizations and elected officials a step-by-step guide for minimizing risks and maximizing budgets.

New NFPA 1730 also helps community leaders determine appropriate staffing levels for services provided. Annexes offer additional guidance and tools including a Community Risk Assessment Guide, and Sample Staffing Exercises.
