To whom and by when should the third copy be sent?

• A. Owner within 5 days
• B. Local AHJ within 10 days after completion
• C. Building Inspector on next inspection
• D. State Fire Marshal within 30 days

Answer: (B)

Submitting final documentation to the Local Authority Having Jurisdiction (AHJ) within 10 days after completion. This requirement ensures the local authority has the official, up-to-date record of the completed work, including final inspection results and test data, so they can close out permits and grant final approval. Delivering the third copy to the owner or waiting for the next inspection doesn’t satisfy the formal record-keeping and approval process, and sending it to the State Fire Marshal within 30 days is not the standard local-finalization requirement.
