I'm glad you said that, because the military is generally exempt from local
building codes and local registration wouldn't be required- as I understand
it. We are, however, doing a project now for a military foundation on a
military complex, and we're giving copies of our system to the locals, but
its lip service.

As for PE qualifications? You're right, that horse has been pulverized so
many times, its too close to lunch in many parts of the country to describe.

Subject: RE: FPE in Wisconsin

I'd be interested in feedback from the AHJs in the group, but I think every
REQUIRED sprinkler system must have a P.E. stamp, unless a jurisdiction has
amended the code to permit NICET or other stamping.  Although the code
permits a deferred submittal, I don't think this means no stamp is
necessary.  We could go into P.E. qualifications and capabilities here but
my intent is not to start this discussion anew.

With regard to military projects, I believe any P.E. stamp is acceptable
unless the project specifications state a local stamp is necessary.

Anyone know of a FPE registered in Wisconsin?  We have a military
project here which requires a FPE stamp. 
If so, please forward me the information off forum.
Thanks,
