Benefits of Adopting the NFPA 1194 Standard for RV Parks and Campgrounds - This is a great resource to utilize as a benchmark when building, expanding, modernizing and maintaining an RV campground. The nationally recognized National Fire Protection Agency 1194 Standard for RV parks and Campgrounds works in concert with the NFPA 1192 standard for RV manufacturing, and provides minimum safety requirements for general design, fire safety, environmental health & sanitation, and establishes uniform definitions. It also includes valuable “annex” sections that address typical site plan safety, sanitary disposal stations, operational guidelines, detailed site layout drawings, examples of the variety of RV types and a comprehensive glossary with detailed descriptions.
RV Industry Economic Impact Study – Please feel free to utilize this interactive database to help underscore the significant economic impact the RV camping industry has in your state or region. Excellent tool to use when working with legislators or other government officials.
