NFPA 101 Life Safety Code (2015 edition) as adopted with state modifications in 41 Ill. Adm. Code 100 (Fire Prevention and Safety), effective Jan 1, 2020. Enforced by Office of the State Fire Marshal (Division of Fire Prevention and Building Safety); local fire officials enforce under OSFM direction or under their own equal-or-higher local codes; public schools (ISBE) and licensed health facilities (IDPH) are inspected by other agencies. Verified on the primary source, re-checked weekly.
OSFM replaced NFPA 101 (2000) with the 2015 edition effective Jan 1, 2020; buildings built after that date are 'new' occupancies. Localities may enforce equal-or-stricter codes (Chicago, home-rule towns), which apply alongside the state rule.
