Fire sprinkler proponents and fire departments across New Jersey are putting the heat on the state to approve proposed regulations that require older high-rise apartment buildings to install sprinkler systems.

A Sept. 17 deadline is in place for the Division of Consumer Affairs to either adopt or reject the regulations that, if passed, would impact 470 high rises in the state. Of those buildings, 98 of them are located in Bergen County.
