The entity authorized to check on fire hazards or flammable conditions on airport property is:

• A. A City Health Inspector
• B. The Los Angeles Fire Department Inspector assigned to the airport detail or any representative of Airfield Operations and/or Airport Police is authorized to check on fire hazards or flammable conditions on airport property
• C. An airline safety officer
• D. A facility supervisor

Answer: (B)

Fire safety oversight on airport property is handled by trained, authorized personnel with jurisdiction over the airport. At LAX, that means the Los Angeles Fire Department inspector assigned to the airport detail, or any representative of Airfield Operations and/or Airport Police, who have the authority to check for fire hazards or flammable conditions across airport facilities. This arrangement exists because fire prevention and response are critical for safe airport operations and require official fire-service and security involvement. A city health inspector focuses on health-code compliance in general public facilities, not on fire hazards; an airline safety officer deals with safety within a specific airline’s operations; a facility supervisor handles maintenance but does not have official authority to conduct formal fire-hazard inspections across the airport or enforce fire codes.
