The responsibility of the Worcester County Fire Marshal's Office is to enforce the Worcester County Fire Prevention Code.
This is accomplished through consulting and plan reviews for new structures and by physically inspecting buildings under construction or already existing. During inspections and special sessions, inspectors also educate the public about all aspects of fire and life safety practices.
The Worcester County Fire Marshal, Chief Deputy Fire Marshal, Deputy Fire Marshals, and Fire Safety Inspectors have the authority to enforce and perform the duties required under COMAR 29.06.01 (Maryland State Fire Prevention Code) and Code of Public Local Laws for Worcester County PS 1-201 & PS 1-401 (Worcester County Fire Prevention Code).
