Fire Sprinkler & Fire Alarm System Permit (Wyoming State Fire Marshal's Office) in Green River, Wyoming
Installation, addition, or alteration of fire protection systems (fire sprinkler, fire alarm, and fire suppression systems) affecting Green River is regulated statewide by the Wyoming State Fire Marshal's Office (WSFM), Department of Fire Prevention and Electrical Safety, under Wyoming Statute Sec. 35-9-108 -- plan review and permitting is required 'regardless of size or valuation.' No evidence was found that the City of Green River or the Green River Fire Department separately issues its own local fire-sprinkler or fire-alarm permit: the City's own Building Permit Application (DocumentCenter Doc #5572) covers only Building/Electrical/Plumbing/Mechanical/Gas trades, this file's codesAdopted list of Chapter 7 building-code adoptions includes no locally-adopted Fire Code chapter, and the Green River Fire Department's own Fire Prevention page makes no mention of plan review, permitting, or fee authority. This differs from Green River's Home Rule electrical-permit arrangement (see electrical-permit entry) -- for fire protection systems specifically, WSFM plan review/permitting is the operative route found by this research.

- Submittals must include the appropriate WSFM Fire Sprinkler Plan Checklist or Fire Alarm Plan Checklist as applicable
- Plans are accepted or rejected for review within 5 business days of receipt; complete submittals receive full review within 21 business days of acceptance (extended by 10 business days, or to the original 21-day window if longer, when additional information is requested)

- Submitted and tracked through the Wyoming State Fire Marshal's Office eLicensing/ePermit/ePayment portal

Tips
- Unlike electrical permits, where Green River's own Code of Ordinances Sec. 7-76 asserts City (Home Rule) enforcement, no equivalent local fire-code home-rule ordinance was found for fire sprinkler/alarm systems -- this research found no City of Green River fire-code adoption section, no fire-alarm/sprinkler line on the City's own Building Permit Application (Doc #5572), and no permit/plan-review information on the Green River Fire Department's own pages, all consistent with WSFM being the operative permitting authority for this permit type.
- Budget significant lead time: WSFM's own stated timeline is up to 5 business days just to accept/reject a submittal, then up to 21 more business days to complete review of an accepted submittal -- plan for roughly 26 business days total before a Permit to Construct is issued.
- Confirm directly with Development Services (307-872-6140) and WSFM (307-777-7288) whether a specific project also needs any City of Green River sign-off (e.g., as part of a Commercial Tenant Improvement Permit's life-safety systems review) in addition to the WSFM permit.
