Section 20.1.4.3, Open Flame Devices and Pyrotechnics, is amended by adding item (7) to read as follows: "(7) When approved by the AHJ, open-flame devices may be used on stages or platforms, provided adequate precautions are taken to prevent ignition of combustible materials. So-called flaming sword or other like equipment shall not be used except in areas protected by an automatic sprinkler system. This shall be construed to mean that stages, platforms, dressing and storage rooms or areas used as places for the performance of flaming sword or other dance performances using fire or flame, shall be sprinklered. In addition, a suitable non-combustible net shall be erected to prevent accidental release onto the viewing audience."
