The Incident Commander shall request a member of the COT Department of Building Inspection through Fire Dispatch to respond to the scene. This practice will allow a second set of eyes to verify that proper shoring has taken place. Additionally, the building owner will be issued 30-day orders which will drive compliance and assist TFRD in retrieving the shoring equipment that was utilized. This will also prompt the owner to make the necessary repairs due to an unsafe structure. The COT Department of Building Inspection can also help verify if the building needs to be vacated until permanent repairs are complete. \\ **Effective Date: October 21, 2024** <- 2024_directives:24_14 ^ 2024_directives:start|Index ^ ->
