Frequently Asked
Is the West Virginia State Building Code enforced everywhere?
No. The State Fire Commission's code (87 CSR 4) applies only where a city or county adopts it. Where adopted, local officials enforce the IRC and pool provisions; elsewhere a residential pool may need no building permit.
Who approves public pool plans in West Virginia?
Public and semi-public pools fall under Legislative Rule 64 CSR 16. Construction plans must be approved by the Bureau for Public Health's environmental engineering staff before construction begins, in addition to any local building permit.
Are your West Virginia pool plans sealed by a West Virginia-licensed engineer?
Yes. A Professional Engineer licensed in West Virginia reviews the package, takes responsible charge and applies their seal. You receive a submission-ready set for your West Virginia jurisdiction.
