The U.S. statute petitioned a nationwide collection of comprehensive fire data with emphasis on a United States fire research program, fire safety education and training programs, demonstrations of new approaches and improvements in fire control and prevention resulting in the reduction of death, personal injury, and property damage. The S. 1124 legislation was passed by the 90th Congressional session and enacted by the 36th President of the United States Lyndon B. Johnson on March 1, 1968.[2] ProvisionsPublic Law 90-259 was penned as two titles: Fire Research and Safety Program and National Commission on Fire Prevention and Control. Title I - Fire Research and Safety Program(A) The purpose of Title I is to authorize directly or through contracts or grants (1) fire investigations to determine their causes, frequency of occurrence, severity, and other pertinent factors (2) research into the causes and nature of fires, and the development of improved methods and techniques for fire prevention, fire control, and reduction of death, personal injury, and property damage (3) educational programs to — (A) inform the public of fire hazards and fire safety techniques (B) encourage avoidance of such hazards and use of such techniques (4) fire information reference services, including the collection, analysis, and dissemination of data, research results, and other information, derived from this program or from other sources and related to fire protection, fire control, and reduction of death, personal injury, and property damage (5) educational and training programs to improve, among other things — (A) the efficiency, operation, and organization of fire services (B) the capability of controlling unusual fire-related hazards and fire disasters (6) projects demonstrating — (A) improved or experimental programs of fire prevention, fire control, and reduction of death, personal injury, and property damage (B) application of fire safety principles in construction (C) improvement of the efficiency, operation, or organization of the fire services (B) The purpose of Title I is to support by contracts or grants the development, for use by educational and other nonprofit institutions (1) fire safety and fire protection engineering or science curriculums (2) fire safety courses, seminars, or other instructional materials and aids for the above curriculums or other appropriate curriculums or courses of instruction Grants may be made only to States and local governments other non-Federal public agencies, and nonprofit institutions. Such a grant may be up to 100 percentum of the total cost of the project for which such grant is made. Title II - National Commission on Fire Prevention and ControlThe U.S. Congress found the United States to have an increasing proportation of the population dispersed in suburban and urban vicinities. The population geographics created a complex and frequently obscured approach for controlling and preventing destructive fires beyond local municipalities. The purpose of Title II is to establish a commission to perform a thorough investigation and study of the demography and population dynamics in the United States. The commission is to develop a formulation for recommendations whereby the United States can reduce the destruction of life and property caused by fire in U.S. cities, communities, suburbs, and elsewhere.
