1 CONSOLIDATED REPORT OF THE MOTIONS COMMITTEE ON CERTIFIED AMENDING MOTIONS FOR PRESENTATION AT THE 2010 ASSOCIATION TECHNICAL MEETING, JUNE 9-10, 2010, LAS VEGAS, NEVADA I. Introduction. This is the Consolidated Final s Committee Report (Consolidated Report) listing Certified Amending s that may be presented at the 2010 Association Technical Meeting in Las Vegas, NV on June 9-10, The s Committee, consisting of NFPA Standards Council Members J. Pauley, (Chair), K. Bell, S. Clary, R. Farr, R. Gerdes and J. Jardin, has been appointed by the Chair of the Standards Council to certify proper amending motions and otherwise review and act, in accordance with 2.1 through 2.7 of the NFPA Technical Meeting Convention Rules (Convention Rules), on Notices of Intent to Make a (s) that have been submitted on NFPA codes and standards (Documents), which are being processed in the Fall 2009 Revision Cycle and the Annual 2010 Revision Cycle [including NFPA 70, National Electrical Code (NEC )]. This Consolidated Report consolidates the three previous s Committee Reports related to the 2010 Association Technical Meeting, namely: the Report for the NEC (posted May 21, 2010); the Report for Annual 2010 Revision Cycle non-nec Documents (posted May 7, 2010); and the Report for the Fall 2009 Revision Cycle Documents (posted November 20, 2009). The Consolidated Report contains all of the certified amending motions contained in the three base Reports. However, the s Committee may have refined or revised the sequencing and/or grouping of previously published motions to facilitate the fair, orderly and efficient consideration of the subjects presented by the motions at the Association Meeting. Under NFPA rules, persons wishing to make an allowable amending motion at an Association Technical Meeting must declare their intention to do so by filing, within the published deadlines, a setting forth information about the intended motion. The s Committee, in accordance with NFPA rules, reviews each to determine whether the intended motion is a proper motion. The Committee can also, in consultation with the submitter of the, clarify the intent of, and, if appropriate, restate the motion, and, in certain circumstances, group together motions that are dependent on each other so that they can be made as a single motion. In addition, the s Committee may take such other action or make such other recommendations as will facilitate the fair, orderly and efficient consideration of motions within the available time. The s Committee certifies for presentation at the appropriate Association Technical Meeting all proper Amending s, either as submitted or as clarified, restated or grouped, as explained above. The s Committee then publishes a Report setting forth, at a minimum, each Certified Amending, the person(s) authorized to make such motions, and the recommended order in which motions should be entertained. In addition, the Report may include s Committee notes or comments aimed at assisting the Presiding Officer or facilitating the understanding of or the orderly and efficient consideration of the motion when presented at the Association Technical Meeting. The Certified Amending s for documents in the Fall 2009 Revision Cycle, and documents (including the NEC) in the Annual 2010 Revision Cycle are set forth in Part II of this report. Part III 21 May 2010 Consolidated Report of the s Committee: June 2010 Association Technical Meeting May 21, 2010 A2010 Consolidated Report of the s Committee Page 1 of 42

2 summarizes s for those documents in the cycles identified above that were not certified by the s Committee. In reviewing this report, the following should be considered: The only Amending s allowed at an Association Technical Meeting are Certified Amending s set forth in a report of the s Committee and any Follow-Up s, that is, motions that may become necessary as a result of a previous successful Amending. (See Convention Rules at ) Certified Amending s can only be made by person(s) listed in this Report as authorized to make the motion, or by persons they have designated in writing to the Standards Council Secretary as their Designated Representative. See Regulations Governing Committee Projects (Regs.) at The Certified Amending s set forth in this report are proper and permissible; they will, however, only be presented for the consideration of the membership at the 2010 Association Technical Meeting if a person authorized to make the motion (or their Designated Representative) actually appears, signs in no later than one hour before the beginning of the session (see Convention Rules at 2.7), and makes the motion in accordance with NFPA rules. This Report concerns all Certified Amending s for consideration at the 2010 Association Technical Meeting in Las Vegas, NV on June 9-10, The information presented above provides a general introduction to some of the relevant features of the process and the presentation of Certified Amending s. For a full and complete understanding of the process, participants should consult the rules themselves, including the Convention Rules and the Regs. In particular, the rules concerning the submission of s and the Certification of Amending s can be found at 2.0 of the Convention Rules and 4.5 of the Regs. The rules concerning membership action at Association Technical Meetings can be found, generally, in the Convention Rules and in 4.6 of the Regs. These are published in the 2010 Annual Directory and are available on the NFPA website at For additional information about the NFPA codes and standards process, consult the NFPA website or contact NFPA Codes & Standards Administration Department at II. Certified Amending s. Previously, the s Committee had ruled that nine Annual 2010 Revision Cycle Documents (including the NEC) and seven Fall 2009 Revision Cycle Documents had certified amending motions for consideration at the 2010 Association Technical Meeting (see the previously published reports as noted above). These rulings have not been modified. The consolidated list of documents with certified amending motions is as follows: NFPA 18 NFPA 25 NFPA 45 NFPA 53 NFPA 58 NFPA 70 NFPA 86 Standard on Wetting Agents Standard for the Inspection, Testing, and Maintenance of Water-Based Fire Protection Systems Standard on Fire Protection for Laboratories Using Chemicals Recommended Practice on Materials, Equipment, and Systems Used in Oxygen-Enriched Atmospheres Liquefied Petroleum Gas Code National Electrical Code Standard for Ovens and Furnaces 21 May 2010 Consolidated Report of the s Committee: June 2010 Association Technical Meeting May 21, 2010 A2010 Consolidated Report of the s Committee Page 2 of 42

Any of the submitters are permitted to make the motion. If successful, the proposed motion seeks to eliminate proposed new Section 6.1 which introduces a new method for determining the presence of a hazardous area (either dust flash fire or dust explosion hazard area) and return the section to the 2006 edition text. If successful, this proposed motion seeks to add a requirement permitting the recycling of air-material separator exhaust when the returned air is automatically diverted to the building exterior in the event of a fire within the air-material separator. If successful, this proposed motion would delete one of seven conditions required when air-material separator (commonly dust collectors) exhaust is to be recycled to buildings or rooms. The condition proposed for deletion is the following: 2. *Combustible particulate solids are not present in the recycled air in concentrations above applicable industrial hygiene exposure limits or 1% of the MEC, whichever is lower. **In describing the Certified Amending and in the s Committee Notes and Comments, the s Committee sometimes summarizes the results of the certified amending motion under consideration.

Accept Comment 25-4 Accept Comment Accept Comment Accept Comment s Committee Notes and Comments** Related s: s 25-1 and 25-2 (Logs 725 and 717) while different in the means they employ, seek to achieve the same action. Specifically, either of the motions, if successful, would delete new and associated annex. These motions have been certified as proper. So as to eliminate multiple debates on the same proposed action, however, the following procedure regarding the orderly and efficient consideration of the subject presented by the related motions will be in effect at the Technical Session: Once either of the motions is made and seconded, the other will no longer be in order, and the single motion on the floor will serve as the representative motion for purposes for debate and vote on the proposed action. All persons wishing to participate in debate on the proposed action should, therefore, do so during the presentation of the representative motion. If successful, this proposed motion results in a return to the definition of Deficiency in the 2008 edition text as follows: Deficiency. A condition in which the application of the components is not within its designed limits or specifications. [1071:2006] If successful, this proposed motion results in the definition of Deficiency as follows: 3.3.4* Deficiency. A condition in which a system or component is not suitable for performing its function, because either the device is not being used within its designed limits or specifications, or the device is damaged, inoperable, or in need of service. **In describing the Certified Amending and in the s Committee Notes and Comments, the s Committee sometimes summarizes the results of the certified amending motion under consideration.
