IL HB6945

Amends the Fire Investigation Act (425 ILCS 25/9) to restrict the Office of the State Fire Marshal's authority over commercial cooking systems in certain organizations.

Prohibits the State Fire Marshal from adopting rules that apply Section 904.11 ("Commercial Cooking Systems") of the NFPA 101 Life Safety Code to cooking systems operated for non-commercial purposes by nonprofits organized under the General Not For Profit Corporation Act of 1986 or the Religious Corporation Act.

Voids any existing rules as of the effective date that apply those commercial cooking system provisions to non-commercial cooking systems operated by qualifying nonprofit or religious corporations.

Takes effect immediately upon becoming law.
