Summary
Statewide Fire Prevention Code; permissible fireworks. Redefines what constitutes permissible fireworks in Virginia, and prevents localities from prohibiting the use, design, possession, ignition, display, storage, sale, or transportation of permissible fireworks, or the setup or supervision thereof. Further, the bill provides that the storage and sale of permissible fireworks shall be governed by the Code for the Manufacture, Transportation, Storage, and Retail Sale of Fireworks and Pyrotechnic Articles adopted by the National Fire Protection Association (NFPA 1124, 2006 Edition), and to the extent that NFPA Standard 1124 doesn't apply to buildings or structures, a locality may enforce any mercantile occupancy requirements.
