1) Iowa State University fire lanes are posted, maintained and enforced by
our parking department.
2) For large special events our office generally only does a pre-event
inspection.  Unless the event involves lasers or noise monitoring is
required.

I would just like to thank dgordner at Ithaca for what is an obviously large
effort to put all these news articles on the listserve. I have been
collecting them and putting them into a spreadsheet to use in our program
proposals. We are hosting a housing/residence safety seminar (provided by
NFA) in June and this information will be prominantly presented. Thanks for
all your time in finding these articles.

I have also noticed a reduction in the usual questions and chatter on the
listserve. I'm sure I am getting the mail. Perhaps there have not been a lot
of questions to ask lately. So I have one to put to everyone if you care to
respond.

1) Who designates and controls the fire lanes on campus? Who pays for the
marking and signage? How do you deal with the pedestrian walkways which are
also fire access points? We have just been givent control of a fire lane
designation program and have been asked if other university safety depts.
are
doing the same.

2) Does your safety dept. conduct walkthroughs on public events such as
basketball games, concerts or other large venues? If so, do you do a
pre-event walkthrough, during the event walkthrough or do you work the
entire
event? UNM has been conducting cradle-to-grave coordination and event
standby
for 3 years now and we are being asked if this is a normal university
function for safety.

Thanks for your time and answers.
