What are permits issued prior to July 1st, 2008 subject to?

Permits issued prior to July 1st, 2008, are subject to compliance with former fire codes. This is because any permits that were obtained prior to that date were governed by the regulations and standards that were in effect at that time. It acknowledges that changes in codes and regulations take effect after a specified date, which means that previous permits retain the requirements outlined in the older code, allowing facilities that had these permits to operate under the regulations that were applicable when they were granted. This ensures a transitional period for facilities and recognizes the established standards that existed prior to any updates to the fire code.
