On May 7, 2020, Governor Newsom signed Executive Order N-63-20, which extended several licenses and certifications by 60-days, as well waived late fees. The CAL FIRE-Office of the State Fire Marshal’s (OSFM) Fire Engineering and Investigations Division has received approval for an executive waiver on the statutory and regulatory timelines governing the OSFM’s Building Materials Listing, Flame Retardant, and Fire Sprinkler Fitter Programs.
The extension and waiver come as a result of the impacts from COVID-19.
