SB3056 amends the Fire Investigation Act to mandate that the Office of the State Fire Marshal investigate fires or explosions where fire is a contributing factor in a death. The chief of the fire department or their designee must notify the Office upon discovering a fire-related death. The chief must maintain control of the scene until a representative from the Office arrives and begins the investigation. This provision does not prohibit fire departments from conducting their own investigations in conjunction with the Office.
