Alquist Seismic Safety Commission.(16) The California Geological Survey.(17) The International Code Council.(b) Not later than July 1, 2022, the functional recovery working group shall do all of the following: (1) Consider if a functional recovery standard is warranted for all or some building occupancy classifications, and investigate the practical means of implementing that standard either as a mandate or as a voluntary measure. If the working group suggests the development of a voluntary or mandatory standard is warranted, the working group shall assist in the preparation of an estimated cost of compliance for use by the appropriate state agencies in meeting the requirements of clause (i) of subparagraph (B) of paragraph (5) of subdivision (b) of Section 11346.2 of the Government Code.(2) Provide advice to the appropriate state agencies regarding whether the work product of paragraph (1) should apply only to certain specified seismic design categories or to the entire state. (3) Subsequent to development of the building code provisions pursuant to paragraph (1), the working group shall advise the appropriate state agencies to propose building standards for consideration by the commission during the next regularly scheduled Triennial Adoption Cycle.(c)If it is determined that a functional recovery standard is not warranted, the group shall assist with the development of the guidance document for use by architects, building owners, engineers, insurance companies, and local jurisdictions that would provide a higher level of structural strength in new construction with the goal of enabling functional recovery after a significant seismic event. The commission is authorized to take the steps necessary to produce and distribute this document to interested parties via its Internet Web site and other venues. (d)(c) The commission is authorized to may adopt regulations based upon the recommendations resulting from the working group for nonresidential occupancies.
