LIIB-119 Instructions
Obtaining Copies of Industrial Board Plans
The Department of Labor & Industry, Industrial Board, maintains copies of all plans submitted for review of variance(s) pertaining to the Fire and Panic and Uniform Construction Code Regulations. The plans are preserved on 35mm microfilm, and reproduced copies are at a much smaller scale than the original plan pages.
Due to building security issues, copies of building plans and specifications and other similar documents are not considered public documents. They will only be released to:
-
The building owner of record.
-
The permit holder.
-
The "design professional of record", i.e., the design professional who designed and sealed the original, approved plans.
-
A third party authorized by the building owner in writing to receive the documents upon presentation of valid identification.
