Abstract:
FEMA Form 516-0-1 collects information on hotels and motels to ensure compliance with fire prevention and control guidelines per the Fire and Prevention Act of 1974. Applicants complete and submit the Hotel-Motel Declaration Form online through the USFA website (http://www.usfa.dhs.gov/applications/hotel/) or they may request a paper-based version. Applications submitted through the website are reviewed and, if approved, the applicant will receive a FEMA ID Number for their facility. Online submission is the preferred method selected by the majority applicants. Paper-based forms returned by traditional methods (USPS mail, special delivery, or facsimile) receive the same review process as those submitted online. Lodging establishments must meet a certain level of life-safety from fire, as defined in Public Law 101-391, to become eligible for listing on the NML. Federal employees use the NML to select lodging while traveling on government-related business, but the list is also accessible to the general public.
