Check fire marshal inspection reports and documentation that verifies discrepancies are addressed and corrected. Inspections must be conducted on at least an annual basis. NOTES: 1. In general this should be applied to major IT equipment areas (generally computer rooms with raised floor space containing servers and communications equipment). The requirement should not be applied to administrative/office space. 2. Also, this requirement should not be applied to a tactical environment, unless it is a fixed computer facility supporting missions in a Theater of Operations. The standards to be applied for applicability in a tactical environment are: 1) The facility containing the computer room has been in operation over 1-year. 2) The facility is "fixed facility" - a hard building made from normal construction materials - wood, steel, brick, stone, mortar, etc. 3. Even if there is no finding the reviewer should note in the report the date the last fire marshal or similar inspection was conducted with a summary of results. This information could be useful during subsequent inspections. |
