It shall be the duty of the chief of any organized fire department, regular or volunteer, or the chief law enforcement officer where no fire department exists, to report the name and address of any firefighter or other person who dies as a result of any fire or explosion in his or her municipality or fire district territory to the state fire marshal by telephone within seventy-two (72) hours. Telephone notification does not relieve the fire department of other reporting requirements.
