3)    Agenda items: 


(a)    Review minutes from the BSEE & BFPR Work Group Meeting on January 19, 2024
(b)    Review minutes from the BSEE & BFPR Work Group Meeting on February 23, 2024
(c)    Discuss the items below for the purpose of creating more comprehensive guidance that clearly outlines the rules associated with permitting and inspections. 
(i.)    Some cities and towns refuse to accept paper permit applications in person or by mail 
(ii.)    Online applications do not match the "Uniform Permit Application" revised 1/2023. There is often no place to enter the A1 license information when using online portals. Sometimes, the portal requires you to "search" for a license number, which then "pulls" licensee information into the permit application. The A1 license details are unavailable in several cities and towns as part of the search function. 
(iii.)    Once issued, the majority of permits do not match the State form. 
(iv.)    Permits are being issued to the Master Electrician of record instead of the A1 License holder 
(v.)    Some cities and towns do not issue formal permits 
(vi.)    Once an inspection occurs, no formal notice of pass or fail is issued.

(d)    Items not anticipated.
