What is the Outreach Program?
Fire Underwriters Survey's Community Outreach Program helps communities communicate changes to their fire defenses that may affect their Public Fire Protection Classification™ and Dwelling Protection Grade™.
Under the program, communities are periodically requested to complete a Community Outreach Questionnaire and provide updated maps of the fire protection area served as well as hydrant locations. Upon receiving the completed questionnaire, a FUS surveyor will be in contact to confirm the applicable Fire Insurance Grades (additional information or a more comprehensive field survey of the community may be requested).
Examples of significant changes include land annexations or changes in the boundaries of a fire district, large developments (comparative to the size of community), new or closed fire stations, water-system improvements, or changes in the way the community receives and handles fire alarms. Although such changes may not increase or decrease the final classification, they may change which properties receive the benefit of the classification.
In scheduling surveys, FUS depends primarily on the information acquired through the Community Outreach Program.
