OR SB760

Public building owners must inspect and test fire dampers, smoke dampers, combination dampers, and smoke control systems within 12 months of installation and at least every four years thereafter (every six years for hospitals), with smoke control systems requiring additional inspections every 6-12 months

Inspectors must hold current certifications from American National Standards Institute-accredited programs approved by the State Fire Marshal, and must issue either a certificate of compliance or a deficiency report that becomes publicly available

Building owners receiving state or federal funds for fire safety system repairs must require contractors to participate in apprenticeship programs, pay prevailing wages, offer employer-paid health insurance and retirement benefits, and target 15% of work hours for women, minorities, and veterans

Deficiencies must be corrected within 120 days (extendable by 90 days for good cause), with violations resulting in civil penalties of $0.05 per square foot of occupied space, increasing to $0.10 per square foot after 240 days and for each subsequent 60-day period of noncompliance

Takes effect on the 91st day after the 2025 legislative session adjourns
