NAC477.444. Requirements for fire flow and proximity to fire hydrants.

     1. The authority having jurisdiction will designate the requirements for fire flow and approve the location of a site for a portable building based on the proximity and usability of available fire hydrants. If it is not possible to locate a portable building which is to be used as a classroom or for any other purpose relating to education in compliance with such requirements, the school district in which the building is to be placed may apply to the authority having jurisdiction to request an alternative means of compliance with the requirements.

     2. There must be no obstruction between a hydrant and the areas to be protected. Access to a hydrant by fire trucks must not be obstructed. If necessary, a hydrant must be turned, moved or otherwise relocated to allow access to the hydrant by fire trucks.
