Fire Investigation

All dollar loss fires or fires resulting in injuries or fatalities must be reported and investigated for cause, origin and circumstances. Once the fire investigation is completed, the information is submitted to the provincial office. The provincial office then uses the information to identify potential hazardous products or make recommendations to the National Building and Fire Codes for life and fire safety.
