Local Enforcing Agency
A Local Enforcing Agency (LEA) is the term used by the New Jersey Department of Community Affairs to designate the agency responsible for enforcement of the New Jersey life safety (fire) code in a municipality. The Eastampton LEA is administered by the Eastampton Board of Fire Commissioners and is outside of the fire department command structure.

Fire Official
The Fire Official is the person designated to head the LEA and enforce the life safety code. The Fire Marshal heads the Fire Prevention Bureau. While the Fire Official and Fire Marshal can be different people, in Eastampton, both roles are filled by David Wiersma, and the titles are used interchangeably.
