Why do the fire marshals perform business inspections?
New York State mandates that compliance inspections be made in all businesses. In general, business inspections are performed annually, but public assemblies are required to be inspected twice per year because of the increased hazards associated with them. Compliance checks help to discover violations before them become active problems.

For additional information, please call the Fire Marshal Office at 631-702-2919
