DecidedTypeL&I Review Board Codes
GroundsBM Consulting Services, Inc. (BM) appeals from the violations issued on 2/19/2021 (see attached) because no employee or agent of BM was performing fire suppression systems work, as such work is defined in Sections 9-1005(1) and 9-2501 of the Philadelphia Code, at the specific time when Inspector Garry Haynes investigated the site of 1921 S. 21st Street regarding FP-2020-001751 on 2/9/2021. Fire suppression work was performed later that day by a qualified individual who possesses a Fire Suppression System certificate.
On 2/9/2021 Mr. Haynes visited the premises. At that time, he witnessed an employee or agent of a third-party, Gen-Con Inc., performing excavation work. The individual was only digging a ditch in the ground. A Fire Suppression System certificate is not needed to dig a hole in the ground. Mr. Haynes left the site after a few minutes and never returned. It is BM¿s understanding that Mr. Haynes did not identify who he was during his site visit. There was no pipe in the ground at the time Mr. Haynes was there.
Fire suppression work was later performed that day on the site by BM employee, John Porter. Mr. Porter has a Fire Suppression System certificate. See attached.
