The Assistant Chief of Fire Operations, Kevin Woods, explains that civilian employees from the Bureau of Fire Prevention, not firefighters, conduct smoke damper inspections, though specific qualifications are unclear.

  • Inspections are conducted by civilian employees, not firefighters.
  • Inspectors are part of the Bureau of Fire Prevention.
  • Specific testing or qualification details are unknown.
