Fire Marshal

The Fire Marshal's Office is dedicated to protecting the lives and property of all citizens and visitors to Osceola County.

Inspection Services

It is our mission to limit the probability and severity of life safety emergencies for both residents and visitors of Osceola County.

Fire safety inspections enforce adopted fire codes for all new and existing commercial properties and identify and remedy unsafe, hazardous, and/or non-compliant conditions.

Annual fire safety inspections are also required to be conducted for the re-licensing process of state-run/approved childcare and adult care facilities outlined within the Florida Administrative Code, 69A.

Additionally, our safety inspectors respond to complaints of possible unsafe conditions for all commercial and residential properties.

Storage Tank and Petroleum Management Inspections

Osceola County has over 600 active storage tanks at more than 260 facilities. Storage tanks can be found throughout the county from retail gas stations to remote agriculture facilities.

The Orange County Environmental Protection Division is contracted with the Florida Department of Environmental Protection to conduct the Storage Tank System Compliance Verification Program for facilities located in Orange, Lake, Osceola, Seminole, and Volusia Counties.

Program staff inspects all regulated facilities to ensure storage tanks are properly registered, installed, operated, maintained, and closed in accordance with Florida Administrative Codes 62-761 and 62-762.

Types of inspections include routine compliance, tank closures, installations, discharges, and complaints. When necessary, the Program initiates enforcement actions against facilities found to be out of compliance.

Notes:

  • The Storage Tanks Compliance Program Office must be notified in writing (e-mail preferably) within 30-45 days and 48-72 hours prior to installation and closure activities
  • You can send the email to the Orange County Environmental Protection Division at EPD@ocfl.net
  • The Orange County Building Safety Division should be contacted for permit requirements for a New Commercial Structure or a Commercial Alteration
