CIAAI announces passage of HB 1399

The CIAAI is pleased to announce the passage of Colorado House Bill 10-1399, submitted by CIAAI to improve the accessibility of CBI fire agents and canines to fire departments throughout the state.

The bill, effective on May 27, 2010, permits the fire chief or his/her designee to call CBI fire agents to assist in arson investigations, without having to make the request through the law enforcement agency having jurisdiction. However, the law enforcement agency with jurisdiction must be notified of the request for CBI assistance.

CIAAI thanks Rep. Paul Weissmann and Sen. Dan Gibbs for sponsoring the bill, Paul Cooke for drafting the language, and CBI / DPS-DFS for their support.
