5 A) Fire Fighter Cancer Cohort Study Partners: Led by University of AZ (with University of Miami, NIOSH, NFFF/FSOCA, FPRF/NFPA, NDRI, IFSI) Timeline: Initial project 3 year to establish framework, for a 30 year study (currently in year 1) Tasks: A data coordination center team will design, develop and evaluate a framework for a multicenter prospective short and long term cohort study (>10,000 subjects) of fire fighters and cancer risk, and will address: Exposure Assessment; Survey Assessments; and Biomarker Collections. Funding: AFG Fire Grant, and others TBD 5
6 A) Fire Fighter Cancer Cohort Study Scope: The goal of the initial 3-year effort of this overall project is to develop and test a framework for establishing a long-term fire fighter multicenter prospective cohort study focused on carcinogenic exposures and effects. Website: 6

8 A Tale of Three Studies A) Fire Fighter Cancer Cohort Study B) PPE Cleaning Validation C) Campaign for Fire Service Contamination Control nfpa.org 8
9 B) PPE Cleaning Validation Partners: Led by Fire Protection Research Foundation (with International Personal Protection, NIOSH, Intertek, & others) Timeline: Halfway through 3 year project Funding: AFG Fire Grant, with consortia and in-kind support. Tasks: 1) ID Contaminants 2) Establish Chemical Contamination / Decontamination Procedures 3) Establish Biological Contamination / Disinfection &Sanitization Procedures 4) Generate Fire Service Guidance How Clean is Clean? Website: 9
10 Technical Challenges: B) PPE Cleaning Validation Variability of Gear Elements (e.g., jacket, pants, gloves, hoods, helmet, boots, etc.) Materials of each element (& each element layer, weave, etc.) Variability of Cleaning Process Cleaning equipment, process, solvents, etc. Variability of Contaminants 1) Organic Chemical Contaminants 2) Inorganic Chemical Contaminants 3) Biological Contaminants Maintaining Gear Performance Features (e.g., thermal protection) 10
11 Chemical Contaminants Vast number of potential contaminants Characteristics are often unique (e.g., toxicity vs. persistence vs. measurability) Focus on heavy metals and certain classes of semivolatile chemicals, such as: PAHs; Phenols; Phthalates B) PPE Cleaning Validation 11
12 B) PPE Cleaning Validation Proposed for next edition of NFPA

14 C) Campaign for Fire Service Contamination Control Partners: Led by Fire Protection Research Foundation (with F.I.E.R.O, International Personal Protection, Peg Paul Associates) Timeline: Halfway through 1 year project Funding: AFG Fire Grant Tasks: Identify, develop, refine, & promote baseline best practices through a clearinghouse approach. Identify, clarify and prioritize gaps. Website: 14
15 C) Campaign for Fire Service Contamination Control Project Genesis: A to Z Contamination Control in Nuclear Power Plants Illustration from Healthy-In Healthy-Out Concept courtesy of Paul Erickson 15
16 C) Campaign for Fire Service Contamination Control Focus: Promote a comprehensive A to Z approach Establish broad mindset, similar to other professions (e.g., nuclear, health care, military, hazmat Address all fire fighter activities, including before, during and after a fire or contamination event. Examples of NFPA documents that will be impacted include (among others): fire ground operations (NFPA 1500, 1584), fire station design (NFPA 1500, 1581), fire apparatus (NFPA 1901), PPE (NFPA 1851), and fire hose (NFPA 1962). 16
