February 26 – March 2, 2018 - 2018 Code Adoption Listening Sessions
The Montana Department of Labor and Industry will be conducting listening sessions in six cities throughout Montana to gather input on the adoption of building codes in Montana.
This notice provides a schedule of the listening sessions, flowchart of the opportunities to provide input, an agenda, and a draft of the administrative rules. These draft rules incorporate the amendments that are necessary to adopt new editions of nationally recognized building codes, based on currently adopted codes, and are being provided as a starting point for discussion purposes. All current administrative rules will be carried forward unless they are changed as a result of comments received during the code adoption process.
The Department’s goal is to provide as many opportunities as possible for stakeholders to provide input on the code adoption process and these opportunities are outlined in the flowchart. The comments received from these listening sessions will be presented to the Building Codes Council for their review and input. The Department will then draft proposed rules and begin the administrative rule process which requires a written comment period and a public hearing.
Participants are encouraged to comment on any topic regarding the state building code. The adoption process for all remaining codes including the energy code will take place next fall.
