There are two criteria necessary for each first revision to pass ballot: (1) simple majority and (2) affirmative 2 /3 vote. The mock examples below show how the calculations are determined. (1) Example for Simple Majority: Assuming there are 20 vote eligible committee members, 11 affirmative votes are required to pass ballot. (Sample calculation: 20 members eligible to vote 2 = 10 + 1 = 11) (2) Example for Affirmative 2 /3: Assuming there are 20 vote eligible committee members and 1 member did not return their ballot and 2 members abstained, the number of affirmative votes required would be 12. (Sample calculation: 20 members eligble to vote 1 not returned 2 abstentions = 17 x 0.66 = 11.22 = 12 ) As always please feel free to contact me if you have any questions.

Younis, Steven E. Affirmative with Comment Syms, Raymond A. 5.7.2.6.5 An approved manual control for foam system shutdown shall be accessible at all times, including the time of fire and system operation. COMMENTS: This needs to be expanded with requirements for the shutoff being co-located with activation controls. A quick shutoff is needed in the event of an inadvertent discharge, need for rescue persons to reach the helicopter, fire under control to preserve foam or at end of foam duration to shut off foam to prevent the foam blanket from being washed away by the water only discharge. This currently allows for the shutoff to be isolated from the heliport attendant as long as it is accessible which needs to be spelled out.
