DISCRIPTION OF WORK:





A permit shall constitute permission to maintain, store or handle materials, or conduct processes which produce conditions hazardous to life or property, or to install equipment used in connection with such activities in accordance with the provisions of 527 CMR. Such permission shall not be construed as authority to violate, cancel or set aside any of the provisions of 527 CMR. Said permit shall remain in effect until revoked, or for such period of time specified on the permit. Permits are not transferable and any change in use, operation or tenancy shall require a new permit.

In accordance with 527 C.M.R. 1.04, plans approved by the head of the fire department are approved with the intent they comply in all respects to 527 C.M.R. Any omissions or errors on the plans do not relieve the applicant of complying with all applicable requirements of 527 C.M.R.
