Street Address: City: State: Zip: Submittal Date: Fri Apr 14 08:40:52 EDT 2017 Committee Statement Committee NFPA 1851 addresses the organization s selection of appropriate fire fighting protective Statement: ensembles. Currently, insufficient detail exists within the standard to distinguish between the decision for selecting protective ensembles for either structural or proximity fire fighting. The lack of detail in both the mandatory and non mandatory parts the standards does not provide adequate information for organizations to consider which type of protective ensemble to have available for the respective hazards that the organization may face as part of its firefighting responsibilities. In fact, this deficiency has led some organizations to dismiss the need for proximity fire fighting protective ensembles on the basis of an overly simplistic hazard assessment that does not recognize the specific risks and potential for those fire fighter injury or fatalities in high radiant fire environments, such as aircraft fires. Such hazards require additional radiant protection afforded by proximity fire fighting protective ensembles. Response Message: Outside organizations rely on the specific requirements and guidance provided in NFPA 1851 to support selection decisions that they make. Therefore it is incumbent that the NFPA 1851 standard includes the appropriate provisions to aid in the selection of protective ensembles that are commensurate with the specific hazards and risks faced by the fire fighters. This includes the requirements for different organizations to select structural, proximity, or both types of fire fighting protective ensembles.

A.5.1.6 http://submittals.nfpa.org/terraviewweb/viewerpage.jsp 84/286

Organizations are able to assess the effectiveness of ensemble interfaces and interface components for reducing the penetration of particulate contamination by conducting a simple test. In this test, a fire fighter wears their ensemble consisting of protective garments, a helmet, gloves, footwear, a hood, and self contained breathing apparatus (SCBA). A fluorescent agent based solution is sprayed as an aerosol onto the exterior of the protective ensemble worn by the fire fighter, while the fire fighter carries out stationary exercises. When applied as a fine mist, the aerosol can approximate the small particles of smoke created in a structural fire. After carefully removing the ensemble, the underlying skin and clothing are examined under a black UV light to show any evidence of aerosol penetration. This information can then be used by the organization to judge how well interfaces are maintained between elements and the overall protective capabilities of specific interface components such as particulate blocking hoods. For performing this test, the following supplies, equipment, and facilities are needed: (1) A commercial fluorescent liquid solution that is typically applied in hand washing. A supply of 3.8 L (1 gal) will be sufficient to evaluate multiple ensembles. (2) An ordinary paint spray with a variable control. An inexpensive electric powered sprayer can be obtained for less than $100 from a home improvement supply store. (3) A large black UV flashlight for viewing any fluorescent aerosol. Alternatively, a bank of long black UV fluorescent lights can be used in a darkened room. (4) An area that can be darkened for examining the fire fighter test subject under black light. This area can be a closet or other room where the light can be fully blocked out. (5) An area for spraying the liquid onto the fire fighter test subject. (6) Optionally, the fire fighter test subject can wear black witness garments such as body wear underneath the ensemble to provide a uniform viewing surface. If this approach, is used, synthetic material based black body wear consisting of a full long sleeved top and pants are useful. However, such garments must be totally free of lint as ascertained by being checked under a black light. The basic procedures for conducting this test involve the following steps: (1) Spray a very small portion of fluorescent solution (1 sec) onto either the black witness garment or individual s skin to determine how it appears under the selected black light observation conditions. This will serve as a visual control for determining if penetration has occurred. (2) The fluorescent solution should rinse off the individual s skin with thorough soap andwater washing. It should also be readily removed from the black witness garments by conventional washing. (3) If the fire fighter test subject wears the black witness garments, then the garments should be washed and free of lint. (4) Put the fluorescent liquid in the sprayer reservoir and adjust the sprayer settings to deliver a light, circular spray pattern of liquid mist. (5) Have the fire fighter test subject put on the complete ensemble to be evaluated. (6) Spray the fluorescent liquid onto the fire fighter ensemble using a spray time of 5 to 10 seconds in each location. Ideally, have the test subject perform motions that are designed to challenge the interfaces, such as reaching above their head with their arms, bending over, and cross body reaches. (7) Following the spraying of fluorescent liquid, use extreme care removing the ensemble from the fire fighter test subject to prevent contaminant transfer to the interior and skin/clothing of the subject. (8) After the ensemble is removed, check the surfaces on the black witness garments or test subject s skin under a black UV light in a darkened area to determine if there is any visual evidence of fluorescence that might have penetrated from the spraying process. (9) Make notes or draw a diagram to show where underlying fluorescence has penetrated portions of the ensemble or the test subject s skin. http://submittals.nfpa.org/terraviewweb/viewerpage.jsp 85/286

Based on this test method, information gained from the evaluation of different ensembles can show their relative effectiveness in preventing particulate protection. However, it is important to note that this evaluation technique might not show all avenues of particulate penetration and can also provide results that might be difficult to interpret unless specific penetration pathways are identified. It is important to carry out these procedures with a high level of advance planning and scrutiny to ensure consistent and comparable results. For example, conducting the evaluation with the same test subject(s) on the same day will allow more uniform testing when comparing different ensembles.

At the time, the rationale was sound. Now, however, after several years of experience with NFPA1851, we have learned the Light Test is neither easy to conduct or as effective as opening the liner up and visually inspecting all layers for possible issues. The inclusion of this test in the Standard, along with the Complete Liner Inspection, also adds confusion to the inspection process.

The principal change involves defining a decision process by which determinations are made on the handling, potential for cleaning, and disposition of the ensemble and ensemble elements using a hierarchy of cleaning approaches. The changes reflect the incorporation of the new concepts with existing language within NFPA 1851. It is recognized that additional work will be required to more effectively establish specific requirements by which organizations can apply effective cleaning for the removal of soiling and contamination. Response Message: The current language provided in A.7.1.1 is now tied to A.7.1. Additional changes to this section have been made to address special cleaning of eyewear, the recognition that products of combustion should be considered contamination, and the cleaning of ensembles when elements are connected to one another.

OK Negative with Comment Woods, Patrick J. This negative vote does not reflect a disagreement with the concept of increasing the protection of fire service members from multiple and varied forms of contamination, especially the need to limit the exposure to cancer causing toxins. However, nothing in the committee statement technically justifies the proposed changes to 7.1. The Committee Statement for this revision is based on a discussion of a TC Task Group. What was discussed? The TC needs to explain the reason for the changes and technical justification for addressing each specific type of contamination. It must also reflect the data driving the benefit of addressing each type of contamination. As 7.1 has significant cost implications, it stands to reason that some form of sound technical justification is warranted to require the listed action triggers. Arguably, the TC statement fails to meet the spirit of the NFPA s Regulations Governing Committee Projects. http://submittals.nfpa.org/terraviewweb/viewerpage.jsp 130/286

I agree with Rich. Taking PPE out of cab while on duty is not realistic. Granger, Jr., Richard O. I disagree with the removal of gear from the cab. Gear used on a scene may be needed when you receive an additional call while in route back to quarters. Departments do not have the resources to put companies out of service nor should we set them up to be ineffective when returning from duty.

Submitter Information Verification Submitter Full Name: Chris Farrell Organization: National Fire Protection Assoc Street Address: City: State: Zip: Submittal Date: Sat Apr 15 17:59:53 EDT 2017 Committee Statement Committee Statement: Response Message: The committee has revised Section 11.3 to incorporate several revisions. These changes include: Provision for the ISP or the Certification Organization to be able to damage the sample that is to be repaired prior to testing. This will allow for flexibility in getting the samples damaged prior to repair and testing. In either case, the Certification Organization will still inspect the damaged sample prior to any repairs being made in order to ensure damage was performed correctly. Seam samples submitted for testing will no longer be allowed to be constructed by a garment manufacturer. The seam samples submitted for damage will be required to be constructed by the ISP or the organization seeking verification. Currently it has been the practice of some verified organizations and/or ISP s to purchase pre made seam kits and submit those as if they are an original submittal of verification samples. The ability to create seams required for submittal for verification should be considered as valuable as performing the required repairs. ISP s, even though considered repair facilities many times perform major repairs larger than what would be considered small patches. The ability to purchase pre made seam kits does not provide confidence that the ISP or verified organization has the skill, knowledge or ability to perform to the scope which is portrayed not only to the industry but the fire service. Based on the types of repairs typically made by ISP s to moisture barriers, the moisture barrier hole repair is being replaced by a pinhole repair. Since pinholes are a common type of moisture barrier repair, this repair type should be verified instead of the hole repair which is not a common repair. The following additional editorial changes were also made: In Table 11.9.3. Evaluation was also added to Test to better reflect what is conducted. In 11.3.9.3.1. The word garment was added to clarify that this relates to the garment manufacturer and not fabric manufacturer. In 11.3.9.4. The term specimens was changed to samples for consistency.

First Revision No. 54 NFPA 1851 2017 [ Section No. 12.1 ] 12.1 Light Evaluation of Liners. 12.1.1* Application. This evaluation method shall apply to liner composites found in structural and proximity fire fighting protective garment elements that are in service. 12.1.2 Evaluation Areas. 12.1.2.1 At a minimum, the front and back body panels of each protective garment element shall be evaluated. 12.1.2.1.1 Specific areas of the body panels that shall be evaluated include the upper back, shoulders, underarms, sleeves, waist area, and crotch area. 12.1.2.1.2 Liner evaluation areas shall also be any areas of the garment where damage or loss of thermal protection is detected or expected. 12.1.3 Evaluation Apparatus. The apparatus used to perform the light evaluation shall have the following characteristics: The apparatus shall consist of a light source that provides enough light to show the changes in density of the liner materials when viewed. The light source shall not produce enough heat to damage the liner composite. The light source shall be configured to prevent the bulbs from directly contacting the liner composite. The light source shall be appropriately sized to fit into the sleeves of the liner. 12.1.4 Procedure. 12.1.4.1 The evaluation procedure shall be performed at room temperature. 12.1.4.2 The evaluation shall be conducted using the following procedure: If possible, separate the liner from the outer shell. Orient the liner so that the thermal barrier is on the outside. Position the light source near the moisture barrier so that the light passes through the moisture barrier and then through the thermal barrier. Evaluate the liner by examining the amount of light coming through the thermal liner. 12.1.5 Results. 12.1.5.1 Results shall be determined by evaluating areas where the light is brighter through some areas than others. http://submittals.nfpa.org/terraviewweb/viewerpage.jsp 199/286

12.1.5.2 Brighter areas could be an indication of insulating material shifting or migrating, resulting in a thin or bare spot. 12.1.5.3 To further evaluate a suspected area of shifting or migration, a complete liner inspection shall be performed. Submitter Information Verification Submitter Full Name: Chris Farrell Organization: National Fire Protection Assoc Street Address: City: State: Zip: Submittal Date: Fri Apr 14 15:04:15 EDT 2017 Committee Statement Committee The recommendation of the public input is to remove the Light Test from the standard. The Statement: Light Test was originally included in the Standard to provide an easy method of evaluating the thermal barrier without opening the liner assembly. At the time, the rationale was sound. Now, however, after several years of experience with NFPA 1851, we have learned the Light Test is neither easy to conduct or as effective as opening the liner up and visually inspecting all layers for possible issues. The inclusion of this test in the Standard, along with the Complete Liner Inspection, also adds confusion to the inspection process. The Complete Liner Inspection is clearly the more effective method for evaluating the thermal barrier. It is also relatively easy and quick to perform. Since the performance of the thermal barrier is critical to the performance of the garment, it is appropriate for the Complete Liner Inspection to become a required part of the Advanced Inspection. This will both improve the Advanced Inspection and simplify the inspection criteria.

This evaluation method shall apply to moisture and thermal barrier liners found in structural or proximity fire fighting protective garment elements that are in service. 12.2.2 Evaluation Areas. 12.2.2.1 At a minimum, the front and back body panels of each protective garment element shall be evaluated using three different moisture barrier material areas and three different moisture barrier areas with a seam. 12.2.2.1.1 Liner evaluation areas shall be from high abrasion areas of the garment elements, including, but not limited to: Broadest part of the shoulders Back waist area of the coat Knees Crotch area Seat area 12.2.2.1.2 In addition to the areas listed in 12.2.2.1.1 where potential damage to the garment outer shell or thermal barrier has been detected, the evaluation shall be conducted on the corresponding area of the moisture barrier. Where potential damage to the garment moisture barrier has been detected, the evaluation shall also be conducted on that area. 12.2.2.2 The liner composite shall be positioned in the evaluation apparatus so that the moisture barrier is oriented upward and is contacted with the liquid exposure in the evaluation apparatus. 12.2.2.3 Moisture barrier material areas with seams shall be positioned on the evaluation apparatus so that the seam divides the specimen into two equal halves. 12.2.3 Evaluation Apparatus. 12.2.3.1* An alcohol tap water mixture shall be made by combining 1 part rubbing alcohol (70 percent isopropanol alcohol) with 6 parts tap water. 12.2.3.2 A 5 gal bucket or similar container shall be used to support the liner during evaluation. 12.2.4 Procedure. 12.2.4.1 The evaluation procedure shall be performed at room temperature. http://submittals.nfpa.org/terraviewweb/viewerpage.jsp 217/286

12.2.4.2 The evaluation shall be conducted using the following procedure: If possible, separate the liner from the outer shell. Orient the liner so that the moisture barrier is on the outside. Position the dry liner over the bucket with the thermal barrier facing down and the moisture barrier side facing up. Cup the liner area that is being evaluated, so that it is lower than the surrounding liner. Pour 1 cup of the alcohol tap water mixture specified in 12.2.3.1 onto the moisture barrier in the cupped area of the liner. 12.2.5 Results. 12.2.5.1 The liner shall be visually inspected for leakage on the thermal barrier side after 3 minutes. 12.2.5.2 If any liquid passes through the moisture barrier and wets the thermal barrier, the liner shall be removed from service and repaired or replaced. 12.2.5.3 After the evaluation procedure has been performed, the liner shall be cleaned and allowed to completely dry to remove all traces of the alcohol tap water mixture.

At the time, the rationale was sound. Now, however, after several years of experience with NFPA1851, we have learned the Puddle Test is neither easy to conduct or as effective as opening the liner up and performing the hydrostatic test. The inclusion of this test in the Standard, along with the Complete Liner Inspection, also adds confusion to the inspection process and is a very time consuming task and further more is not used commonly in the industry. The Hydrostatic Test as the recommended procedure to evaluate leakage of the moisture barrier while performing the Complete Liner Inspection is clearly the more effective method for evaluating the moisture barrier layer. It is also relatively easy and quick to perform. Since the performance of the moisture barrier is critical to the performance of the garment, it is appropriate for the hydrostatic test to be the recommended leakage evaluation within the Complete Liner Inspection. This will both improve the Advanced Inspection and simplify the inspection criteria.

Specific research is being carried out to develop simplified procedures by which specially contaminated samples can be sent to any facility and subjected to a respective organization s cleaning process and procedures. The facility would then return the cleaned samples back to a qualified laboratory for analysis. Based on the analysis of the samples, a determination can be made as to how much contamination has been removed by the respective cleaning process are procedures. Is recommended that these validation procedures be specified for qualifying specific cleaning and decontamination processes as applied to the removal of products of combustion contamination and separately to biological contamination. Thus, only those equipment, cleaning agents/sanitizers, procedures and processes that pertain a specific level of contamination removal efficiency would be used. Work is already underway by the Fire Protection Research Foundation and is sufficiently advanced for developing procedures that examines both chemical and biological contamination. In the case of chemical contamination, two separate approaches are being investigated. The first approach entails exposing small material swatches in a repeatable fashion to products of combustion created and a small controlled chamber that creates both soot particles and various types of organic and inorganic chemicals. A second approach involves impregnating fabric samples with a certain like carbon material and inoculating the material with specific amounts of known organic and inorganic chemicals. In while either case, the contaminated samples would be characterized for the levels contamination an identical set would be sent to the facility for incorporation into a clothing set that is then subjected to the respective cleaning process being evaluated. With the return of the wash samples, and analysis would be performed to determine the remaining level of contaminants retained by the sample. By comparing the levels both in the uncleaned and cleaned samples, a quantitative measure can be obtained for individual substances or contaminants. Similarly, specimen fabric samples can be inoculated with specific microorganisms and likewise subjected to cleaning or sanitization processes to determine the remaining number of microorganisms following the application the process. Specific efficiencies can be set for qualifying the effectiveness of the decontamination processes for either chemical or biological contaminants. The inclusion of cleaning validation will be proposed in the following ways: 1. All advanced cleaning processes would be required to be validated for effectiveness for chemical decontamination. 2. Any cleaning process recommended for the removal biological contaminants would be required to be validated for effectiveness for biological decontamination. http://submittals.nfpa.org/terraviewweb/viewerpage.jsp 222/286

Response Message: Ballot Results 3. It would be permitted for vendors to qualify their equipment, cleaning/sanitization, and specialized processes for either chemical or biological decontamination effectiveness. 4. These procedures would be applied to Independent Service Providers to verify their cleaning as no such current procedures exist and would be undertaken during the verification process applied to ISPs. Specific details for how these requirements would be implemented as well as current proposed procedures for the conduct of both chemical and biological contamination will be specified prior to the first draft meeting to allow committee review of the recommended changes to the standard.
