NFPA RESEARCH FOUNDATION PPE CLEANING VALIDATION PROJECT
PPE CLEANING VALIDATION PROJECT HOW CLEAN IS CLEAN? How soiled is contaminated? Currently, no industry standards that conclusively and reliably show that clothing is being adequately cleaned Establish clear and definitive guidance for applying cleaning and decontamination procedures that effectively remove both chemical and biological contaminants August 2018; AFG Fire Prevention & Safety Grant
NFPA RESEARCH FOUNDATION CAMPAIGN FOR FIRE SERVICE CONTAMINATION CONTROL
CAMPAIGN FOR FIRE SERVICE CONTAMINATION CONTROL ESTABLISH BEST PRACTICES Develop and disseminate educational campaign information to implement widespread changes to promote fire service best practice control of chemical and biological contaminates. Entire spectrum of contamination control for all fire fighter activities, including before, during and after a fire or contamination event. Packaged into a workable format: project summary report contamination control user guide PowerPoint training materials September 2017; AFG Fire Prevention & Safety Grant
