7 Fundamentals of the NFPA Process 1) ~78,000 Members 2) Board of Directors Approximately 23 members Elected by Membership 3) Standards Council 4) Technical Committees

8 Fundamentals of the NFPA Process Technical Committees These are the consensus bodies in system Typical maximum size of 30 Overall; ~ 7,000 Volunteers ~ 225 Technical Committees, balanced by interest categories ~ 300 Codes & Standards

9 Fundamentals of the NFPA Process Technical Committees Membership is continually monitored All members reappointed annually Inactive members removed Don t t need to be general NFPA member to be a TC member

10 Fundamentals of the NFPA Process Technical Committees Carefully balanced by 9 interest categories (1) Applied Research/Testing Laboratory; (2) Consumer; (3) Enforcing Authority; (4) Installer/Maintainer; (5) Insurance; (6) Labor; (7) Manufacturer; (8) Special Expert; (9) User

11 Fundamentals of the NFPA Process Inherent safeguard against dominance 1/3 Balance Rule: A committee can never have more than 1/3 of its membership from any one interest category Consensus Requirement: Minimum 2/3 on all changes Some situations require ¾ majority

12 GIS Data Exchange Project How did the project develop? What are the issues?

13 Need for Committee Ability to exchange geographic information to support risk assessment and incident management Mutual aid and Resource Exchange Participation in national preparedness Utilize critical infrastructure data distributed through national systems

14 Four Recommendations 1. Develop common fire service messaging standards and protocols for exchanging data between two or more systems

15 Four Recommendations 2. Support the national directives for information management systems: Interoperability Reliability, Scalablity and Portability Resiliency and Redundancy

16 Four Recommendations 3. Ensure operational relevance and sustainability Ability to maintain local control of functionality Diminish redundancy in data collection

17 Four Recommendations 4. Leverage and support existing relevant standards in partnership with the US Fire Administration, DHS-NIMS Integration Center, and the Federal Geospatial Data Committee

18 Fundamentals of the NFPA Process Essentials of the NFPA system Due process Openness Lack of dominance Allows us to find society s s balance between: Acceptable risk Commitment of resources

19

20 A Uniquely Open Process 1) Call for Proposals 2) Report on Proposals (ROP) 3) Report on Comments (ROC) 4) Technical Committee Report (TCR) Session of the Annual Meeting 5) Standards Council Consideration/Issuance

21 A Uniquely Open Process Two revision cycles per year Fall (November) Annual (June) One association general meeting per year Annual Meeting (June) Technical Committee Reports (TCR) presented Certified motions can be made

22 Where we are now The Standards Council accepted the concept of the Data Exchange Project Seeking potential members for the Technical Committee

24 Choices for Documents Code Standard Recommended Practice Guide

26 Development of Full-Consensus Model Documents U.S. decentralized approach works well Based on private, independent organizations Relatively unique in the world Public Law (New Tech Act) Participate and use private sector documents Examples of success in NFPA system: NFPA 101 Life Safety Code; NFPA 301 Merchant Vessels; NFPA 501 Manufactured Housing; NFPA 804 Nuclear Power Plants; NFPA 820 Wastewater Treatment; NFPA 2001 Halon Alternatives
