Steps
Confirm with the specific local health department and fire AHJ what their current plan-review submittal package requires, since this varies by jurisdiction and is not standardized by NFPA 96 or the IMC alone
Prepare equipment specification sheets and cut sheets for all cooking equipment, the hood, grease filters, and fire suppression system showing their listings
Prepare hood/duct/fan drawings showing dimensions, clearances to combustibles, duct routing, termination point, and access panel locations consistent with NFPA 96 and the adopted IMC edition
Include the fire suppression system layout (nozzle placement, detection/actuation devices, manual pull station location, fuel/electrical shutoff wiring) for fire AHJ review alongside the health department's food-service equipment review
Confirm makeup air source and interlock wiring are documented, and submit the complete package to both health and fire departments in whatever sequence/parallel process the jurisdiction requires
Known gotchas
Health department review (food service/sanitation focus) and fire AHJ review (life safety focus) are typically separate approval processes with separate submittal requirements — a package that satisfies one does not automatically satisfy the other
Because there's no single national standard submittal checklist, always confirm the current package requirements directly with the specific local jurisdiction rather than reusing a checklist from a different city or state
Plan review often needs to happen before equipment purchase/installation, not after — check the jurisdiction's process to avoid installing equipment that then fails plan review
