NFPA 10, Standard for Portable Fire Extinguishers, 2007 10 edition. NFPA 13, Standard for the Installation of Sprinkler Systems, 2010 edition. NFPA 70, National Electrical Code, 2008 11 edition. NFPA 99, Standard for Health Care Facilities, 2005 12 edition. NFPA 701, Standard Methods of Fire Tests for Flame Propagation of Textiles and Films, 2004 10 edition. NFPA 750, Standard on Water Mist Fire Protection Systems, 2010 edition.. Submittal Date: Mon Aug 20 13:58:44 PDT 2012 A reference to NFPA 750 has been added as it is now used in Chapter 4 of NFPA 99B. The other NFPA publications were updated to reflect the most recent editions at the time of the First Draft Meeting. FR-2-NFPA 99B-2012 Public Input No. 9-NFPA 99B-2012 [Section No. 2.2]

Page 2 of 9 First Revision No. 8-NFPA 99B-2012 [ Section No. 3.3.7 ] 3.3.7* Flame Resistant (Hypobaric). A substance meeting the flame propagation performance criteria contained in Test Method 1 or Test Method 2, as appropriate, of NFPA 701, Standard Methods of Fire Tests for Flame Propagation of Textiles and Films, for the chamber atmosphere. Submittal Date: Tue Aug 21 10:50:18 PDT 2012 This definition has been revised to correlate with the TC action in Chapter 5, which brought in specific test requirements for NFPA 701. FR-8-NFPA 99B-2012 Public Input No. 5-NFPA 99B-2012 [Section No. 3.3.7]

Page 3 of 9 First Revision No. 10-NFPA 99B-2012 [ New Section after 3.3.19 ] Global FR-10 3.3.20 Qualified Person. A person who, by possession of a recognized degree, certificate, professional standing, or skill, and who, by knowledge, training, and experience, has demonstrated the ability to perform the work. Hide Deleted Submitter Full Name: Jonathan Hart Organization: National Fire Protection Assoc Submittal Date: Thu Sep 13 13:38:15 EDT 2012 This definition has been added to define what a qualified person is as required by requirements in the code. FR-10-NFPA 99B-2012 Public Input No. 1-NFPA 99B-2012 [Chapter 3]

Page 4 of 9 First Revision No. 1-NFPA 99B-2012 [ Section No. 4.1.1.3 ] 4.1.1.3 The room or rooms housing the hypobaric chambers and service equipment, such as those described in 4.1.1, shall have an automatic sprinkler system installed in accordance with NFPA 13, Standard for the Installation of Sprinkler Systems, or an automatic water mist fire protection system installed in accordance with NFPA 750, Standard on Water Mist Fire Protection Systems.. Submittal Date: Mon Aug 20 13:40:10 PDT 2012 This addition provides the option for protecting the room or rooms housing the hypobaric chambers and service equipment with water mist systems provided it is installed per the requirements of NFPA 750. If testing and listing have proven this to be effective for these environments, then there is no reason to prevent its use if the stakeholders determine it appropriate. FR-1-NFPA 99B-2012 Notes: Date Submitted By Sep 13, Hart For some reason it looks like there is a space before the period but 2012 there isn't. Public Input No. 8-NFPA 99B-2012 [Section No. 4.1.1.3]

Page 5 of 9 First Revision No. 4-NFPA 99B-2012 [ Section No. 4.5.4 ] 4.5.4 Testing Requirements. 4.5.4.1 The deluge and handline system shall be functionally tested at least semiannually. Following the test, all valves shall be returned to their normal operating condition. 4.5.4.2 If one or more disenabling test switches are provided to prevent discharge of water into the chamber from nozzles during tests, they shall be of a type that automatically returns to normal operating condition upon completion of testing. 4.5.4.3 During initial construction or whenever changes are made to the installed deluge system that could affect the spray pattern, testing of spray coverage shall demonstrate conformance to the requirements of 4.5.2.5.1. 4.5.4.4 The inspection, testing, and maintenance of the hypobaric fire suppression system shall be performed by a qualified person. Submittal Date: Mon Aug 20 18:22:54 PDT 2012 Hypobaric fire suppression systems are unique and should be inspected, tested, and maintained (ITM) by a person or company that understands these systems. FR-4-NFPA 99B-2012 Notes: Date Submitted By Sep 13, 2012 Hart No reason for all of the numbers to be underlined. Only the last paragraph was added. Public Input No. 2-NFPA 99B-2012 [Section No. 4.5.4]

Page 6 of 9 First Revision No. 5-NFPA 99B-2012 [ Section No. 5.1.4 ] 5.1.4 Rules and Regulations. 5.1.4.1 Administrative, technical, and professional staffs shall jointly establish rules and regulations for the use of hypobaric facilities. 5.1.4.2 Copies of the rules and regulations shall be available in and around the hypobaric chamber. 5.1.4.3* All chamber operating personnel shall be trained in the purpose, application, operation, and limitations of emergency equipment held on site. 5.1.4.4* Emergency procedures tailored to the individual facility shall be established. 5.1.4.4.1* All hypobaric facility personnel shall know the emergency procedures and how to implement them. 5.1.4.4.2 Fire training drills shall be conducted at least semiannually. 5.1.4.4.3 During chamber operations with an occupant(s) in the chamber, the operator shall be physically present and shall maintain visual or audible contact with the control panel or the chamber occupants. Submittal Date: Mon Aug 20 18:28:32 PDT 2012 This adds language as in NFPA 99 14.3.1.4.8 for a chamber operator to be present at the panel to NFPA 99B. FR-5-NFPA 99B-2012. The requirement about cell phones and personal electronic devices is an operational consideration that is not appropriately addressed in NFPA 99B. Notes: Date Submitted By Sep 13, Hart No reason for all of the numbers to be underlined. Only the last 2012 paragraph was added. Public Input No. 3-NFPA 99B-2012 [Section No. 5.1.4]

Page 7 of 9 First Revision No. 6-NFPA 99B-2012 [ Section No. 5.1.7.2 ] 5.1.7.2 Garments fabricated of 100 percent cotton or a blend of not cotton and polyester with no more than 50/50 cotton and percent polyester fabric shall be permitted in Class E chambers equipped with fire protection as specified in Section 4.5. Submittal Date: Mon Aug 20 18:31:58 PDT 2012 It is has been clarified that the blend means that no more than 50 percent polyester is allowed. FR-6-NFPA 99B-2012. The term "antistatic" has been removed as it is vague and unenforceable. Public Input No. 4-NFPA 99B-2012 [Section No. 5.1.7.2]

Page 8 of 9 First Revision No. 7-NFPA 99B-2012 [ Section No. 5.1.7.5 ] 5.1.7.5 Fabric used in Class E chambers shall meet the flame propagation requirements contained in Test Method 1 or Test Method 2, as appropriate, of NFPA 701, Standard Methods of Fire Tests for Flame Propagation of Textiles and Films, except that the test atmosphere shall be 100 percent oxygen at normal atmospheric pressure. Submittal Date: Tue Aug 21 10:45:32 PDT 2012 Specific test methods of NFPA 701 are included in this section. The requirement for the test to be performed at 100% oxygen was removed as it is outside the specifications of NFPA 701. FR-7-NFPA 99B-2012 Notes: Date Submitted By Sep 13, Hart Looks like a space before the period? 2012 Public Input No. 6-NFPA 99B-2012 [Section No. 5.1.7.5]

Page 9 of 9 First Revision No. 9-NFPA 99B-2012 [ Section No. A.3.3.7 ] A.3.3.7 Flame Resistant (Hypobaric). The material should be tested using the appropriate test (as a function primarily, of the specimen areal weight; i.e., Test Method 1 or Test Method 2 ) contained within NFPA 701, Standard Methods of Fire Tests for Flame Propagation of Textiles and Films, and should meet the corresponding flame propagation performance criteria, except that the test should be conducted in the gaseous composition and maximum pressure at which the chamber will be operated. A source of ignition other than the gas burner specified in NFPA 701 might be required for this test if it is to be performed in 100 percent oxygen at normal atmospheric pressure. Certain materials might off-gas during exposure to a hypobaric environment and/or give off toxic cyanide fumes in the event of ignition. Special care should be taken to avoid using such materials wherever possible. Submittal Date: Tue Aug 21 10:53:56 PDT 2012 This explanatory material has been revised to correlate with the TC action in Chapter 5, which brought in specific test requirements for NFPA 701.
