Public Comment No. 6-NFPA 414-2015 [ Section No. 4.19.6.10 ]
4.19.6.10
The nozzle system shall be constructed to direct or spray agent and water on both sides of the aircraft atthe same time after the penetration is made. [Concept delivery shall be multiple holes causing a spray thatcovers an area of at least 7.6 m (25 ft) along the length of the fuselage left and right of the penetrationpoint.]
Statement of Problem and Substantiation for Public Comment
When the sub committee team was reviewing this section, we noticed that 4.19.6.8 had been changed by the NFPA. Originally there were two requirements listed for this (NFPA 414-2012). It looks to be that the requirement was broken into two separate ones (per guidelines, created 4.19.6.8 and 4.19.6.9), but the original one was still in the document as 4.19.6.10. We propose to remove 4.19.6.10 from the document.
This is being submitted on behalf of the Chapter 4 (14-26) sub committee.

3.3.28.4 Synthetic Foams
This foam contains primarily petroleum products - alkylsulphates, alkylsulphanates, alkylarylsulphanates,etc. Synthetic foam forming substances also include stabilizers, anti-corrosives, and components to controlviscosity, freezing temperature and bacteriological decomposition. Concentrates of different types or fromdifferent manufacturers should not be mixed in order to obtain an extinguishing foam; however, syntheticfoams from different pieces of equipment are compatible and can be used one after the other orsimultaneously to extinguish a fire. The degree of compatibility between synthetic foams and dry (powder)chemical substances should be determined prior to their intended use.
Fluorine and organohalogen free foams complying with Level A, B and C requirements may be availableunder the heading of synthetic foams. These particular products are less long term damaging to theenvironment and are stable against polar and non-polar hydrocarbons. Fluorine and organohalogen freefirefighting foams are pseudo plastic materials containing surface active agents, polymer film formers,co-surfactants, stabilisers and anti-freeze compounds. Polymer film formers prevent the destruction offinished foam. These products can be used in concentrations up to 6%, with foam compatible dry powdersand with aspirating and non-aspirating equipment.
Statement of Problem and Substantiation for Public Comment
We believe with the expanded use of Synthetic Foams, especially outside of the US, we should provide a definition of Synthetic Foam as well as providing annex material.

Public Comment No. 14-NFPA 414-2015 [ Section No. D.1 [Excluding any Sub-Sections]
]
The driver's enhanced vision system (DEVS) aids the three difficult aspects of poor visibility response:navigating to the accident site, locating the accident, and negotiating terrain and obstacles on the way to theaccident site. DEVS is an integrated system consisting of three systems: navigation, tracking, andlow-visibility enhanced vision. DEVS can be implemented as a stand-alone system on an ARFF vehicle withno tracking/communication capability or as a fully integrated system with an emergency command center(ECC). The three DEVS system components are as follows:
(1) Navigation. The navigation system provides the ARFF vehicle driver with the vehicle's location andserves as an aid in navigating to the accident site.
(2) Tracking. The tracking system can be tightly integrated with the navigation system through data link.Tracking capability serves as an aid to the ARFF vehicle driver in locating and navigating to theaccident site. This capability will reduce driver communications workload and improve the situationalawareness of the driver and , command or dispatch and dispatch personnel.
(3) Low-Visibility Enhanced Vision. The low-visibility enhanced vision system uses a forward-lookinginfrared (FLIR) device or other comparable state-of-the-art low-visibility enhanced vision technology.Low-visibility enhanced vision capability will improve visual awareness in smoky, foggy, or darkenvironments by sensing thermal radiation instead of visible light.

Public Comment No. 15-NFPA 414-2015 [ Section No. D.1.1 ]
D.1.1 Installation and Operation.
Operation of the DEVS should not increase driver workload or require additional personnel for operationduring emergency response. Installation should not obstruct driver view or hamper any other ARFF vehiclesystem. The system should be installed without extensive vehicle modification and should include sufficientfiltering to protect itself from vehicle voltage spikes and surges. Vehicle-mounted DEVS equipment shouldinclude a dedicated power source that should enable uninterrupted operation of the navigation system forminimally 4 hours 1 hour without any external power source (i.e., external vehicle shore connection toconditioner/charger or vehicle alternator power). Recommended voltage range for DEVS equipment inARFF vehicles is 10 to 12 V dc (volts direct current). In addition, exposed equipment should be able tooperate within the same conditions (weather, chemical, and otherwise) as that of the ARFF vehicle. AllDEVS components should be installed facilitating removal for repair, replacement, and troubleshooting.
Statement of Problem and Substantiation for Public Comment
This change is consistent with FAA Advisory Circular 150/5210-19A (dated June 12, 2009) - DEVS, section 6.b Power Requirements: "DEVS power requirements must allow operation from the vehicle battery power bus for a minimum of 1 hour without adversely affecting other systems."

The navigation system should be able to compute a vehicle position solution accurate to 2 .6 m (6.6 2 ft).Vehicle position updates should be provided once at least 10 times per second and displayed on themoving map display. Vehicle position should be immediately provided upon vehicle start-up. The systemshould be able to withstand vehicle shock and vibration. The system should provide an integrity requirementto insure that it is either working properly or down altogether, allowing no possibility of wrong/misleadinginformation.
Statement of Problem and Substantiation for Public Comment
This is the same change that was submitted during the First Draft comment period, under Public Input No. 67. This GPS input dramatically improves the performance and safety logic (incursion management, route accuracy & speed notification) of DEVS, and is now a standard in DEVS from the FAA's perspective. A brief review of GPS product manuals appears to show that this change does not favor a particular proprietary product. Note: This change would be more restrictive than that listed in FAA Advisory Circular 150/5210-19A (date June 12, 2009) - DEVS, section 16 Overall Requirements: "Vehicle position updates via GPS must be at least once per second."

The tracking system is accomplished by two-way wireless communication between the DEVS installed inthe ARFF vehicle and the DEVS ECC. The tracking system should derive vehicle position data from thenavigation system. The tracking system should be able to report the vehicle position to, and exchangemessages with, the ECC within 30 seconds and have the capability to do so continuously (24 hours perday, 7 days per week). It should be able to track minimally 10 vehicles simultaneously with 1-secondupdates and be able to track any number of vehicles simultaneously with a maximum update time of 5seconds. The tracking system should be automatically initialized upon start-up, require minimal operatorintervention, and be able to withstand vehicle shock and vibration.

3.3.101 US National Grid
The United States National Grid is a standard area and point grid reference system that quickly enablesmulti-discipline and multi-jurisdictional emergency service agencies to precisely locate incidents anduniversally communicate locations using paper maps and/or electronic applications. It is based upon thewidely used Universal Transverse Mercator (UTM) Coordinate system developed in 1947 and the MilitaryGrid Reference System (MGRS) used by all NATO forces and the National Guard, since 1949. It becamethe national standard (FGDC-STD-011-2001) for civilian purposes in 2001. It was designated as the landsearch & rescue standard coordinate system in 2011, by the National Search & Rescue Commitee; a groupof federal agencies.

Statement of Problem and Substantiation for Public Input
US National Grid is the national standard coordinate system of the USA. It is designed for ground based operations and is functionally equivalent to US military's and NATO's Military Grid Reference System. It is the land search & rescue standard per the National Search & Rescue Committee since 2011. Many after action reports for wide area events cite a need for a common grid system. The use of a grid on a map to make it a tool is not disputed as a grid concept is referenced in 4.5.2. However the type of grid is undefined. Crash maps showing atlas grid of A-Z, 1-99, are not interoperable. Coordinate B,27 cannot be displayed on a GPS or web application. Additionally, responders to B, 27 must have that specific map where B.27 is displayed. In contrast, and with valued-added, US National Grid can be on the local maps made & issued by the airport to surrounding jurisdictions. However, if that map was not in the hand of a responder, or if an incident was beyond the map's margins, all could use their own tools of GPS, computer aided dispatch, mobile data terminal, smart phone or web tool to display the grid and navigate accordingly. On 12/8/14, there was a crash in Maryland. The geo-location by US National Grid was: 18T UJ 116 390 on Drop Forge Lane, Gaithersburg. Those 11 characters are the worldwide coordinate to 100 meter square. For local operations, the reference could have been just 116 390, just six(6) digits. Regionally (state) the reference could have been UJ 116 390.

Statement of Problem and Substantiation for Public Input
"Note: This public input originates from Tentative Interim Amendment No. 13-1 (Log #1154) issued by the Standards Council on August 14, 2014 and per the NFPA Regs., needs to be reconsidered by the Technical Committee for the next edition of the Document"
Emergency Nature: This proposed temporary interim amendment (TIA) meets the emergency nature threshold due to the fact that the link to the NTSB website that is in the current document does not provide any training on the ballistic recovery systems (BRS). In fact the NTSB website does not contain any of the information that is suggested in the text of the section, thus necessitating the submission of this TIA. The new text that is being proposed and provided offers users some in-depth training and information on the BRS that can be incorporated into an emergency plan keeping emergency personnel safe.

9.5.7
Aircraft accidents can occur during temperature extremes. These conditions can seriously aggravate thecondition of persons trapped within an aircraft wreckage for an extended period. During this time it isextremely important to maintain the critical body temperature and vital functions of trapped victims. Tarps,blankets, portable lights, fans, oxygen units, and portable temperature control units (heating and cooling)should be immediately available at an accident site. Portable heating and cooking and cooling units shouldbe designed or located so as not to be an ignition hazard.

10.7.2
The location of survivors, if known, and the area of fire will determine where the first streams should beapplied. If the fire has penetrated the fuselage, a direct interior attack with handlines and/or boom-mountedturrets and/or boom-mounted penetrating nozzles should be initiated as soon as possible.
Statement of Problem and Substantiation for Public Input
Immediate interior fire suppression with all available ARFF resources is necessary to stop an immediate life danger hazard to any surviving incapacitated passengers. This was noted by the NTSB in the recent Asiana 214 accident at SFO. This is a recommendation by the NTSB.

11.4.5* Boom Mounted Turrets & Penetrating Nozzles
Boom-mounted turrets and penetrating nozzles can be used to discharge extinguishing agents inside theaircraft. Boom-mounted penetrating nozzles can easily knock cabin/fuselage windows of the aircraft inwardallowing access for interior agent application. Boom mounted penetrating nozzles should not be used topenetrate forward facing cockpit windows. Boom-mounted turrets can also be extended and orientedthrough open doors to discharge agent into the interior of the fuselage. Boom-mounted penetrating nozzlesshould pierce the aircraft fuselage approximately 12" above windows for effective interior fire suppressionby penetrating below overhead baggage storage compartments. Boom mounted penetrating nozzles haveproven themselves effective at penetrating the fuselage below the cabin floor level and baggagecompartments to extinguish fire burning in concealed spaces. Boom-mounted penetrating nozzles shouldbe deployed rapidly when arriving on scene if any evidence of an interior fire exists before the aircraft isknown to be completely evacuated.
Statement of Problem and Substantiation for Public Input
Priority should be given to immediate use of boom-mounted turrets and penetrating nozzles for interior fire suppression. This was demonstrated by the recent Asiana 214 aircraft accient at SFO. This is a recommendation in the NTSB accident report.

403-12Foams should be classified by their performance and not by their composition names. For example
foams meeting performance standard XX …. Rather than AFFF or fluorine free.To use current chemical based names for foams hinders future developments. The key criteria is that
they should do the job, so use that as the criteria and not their composition.
1. The ICAO standard which includes Level C, has not been formally published.2. Large scale fire test data (e.g. 1000 sq foot or greater) has not been provided.3. Unclear whether fluorine free foam can be used with non-air aspirating nozzles (AFFF performance assumes this).4. ICAO Level C small scale tests uses kerosene. The Mil spec used for AFFF performance uses gasoline.5. There is potential conflict between UL 162 and the ICAO Level C test performance.Retain proposal as published in the ROP.

(Fluoroprotein and FFFP ,Fluorine Free Synthetic (column 2, for Medium performance foam concentrate) and ProteinFoams (column 3 with General use foam concentrate)
New headers and numbers for the three columns based on the revised numbers published by the ICAO and the EASAand the performance of the current US Mil specification. Below I am providing the numbers for the new first column inmetric and I am prepared to produce the equivalent table in US if the proposal is retained. First columnNote: New numbers based on ICAO level C and MIL spec testing application rates
Second column
Third column
The current table 5.3.1 Q1 and Q2 numbers of the first column are based on lesser (mediumperformance level) application rates ICAO level B of 5.5 LPM per M2. The numbers have never been adjusted followingthe evolution of agents to higher performance requirements such as ICAO level C and Mil F and appropriate testapplication densities.Safety considerations:The safety factor margins have been retained in the ICAO numbers to a level equivalent to what it was in the 3 existinglevels. As an example the test application rate of the ICAO level C is of 1.75 LPM per M2 for a calculated operationalrequirement of 3.75 LPM per M2.
Trade issues in support of identifying concentrates by performance levels:Applying a type of agent such as an AFFF or FFFP to a column just by name may constitute a trade restriction. As ahypothetical example, a newly developed super protein foam could outperform some of the lesser performing AFFF.

Statement of Problem and Substantiation for Public Input
This Public Input appeared as a "Reject but Hold" in Public Comment No. 403-8 of the A2013 Second Draft Report for NFPA 403 and per the Regs at 4.4.8.3.1.
Substantiation: The current table 5.3.1 Q1 and Q2 numbers of the first column are based on lesser (medium performance level) application rates ICAO level B of 5.5 LPM per M2. The numbers have never been adjusted following the evolution of agents to higher performance requirements such as ICAO level C and Mil F and appropriate test application densities.Safety considerations:The safety factor margins have been retained in the ICAO numbers to a level equivalent to what it was in the 3 existinglevels. As an example the test application rate of the ICAO level C is of 1.75 LPM per M2 for a calculated operationalrequirement of 3.75 LPM per M2.Trade issues in support of identifying concentrates by performance levels:Applying a type of agent such as an AFFF or FFFP to a column just by name may constitute a trade restriction. As ahypothetical example, a newly developed super protein foam could outperform some of the lesser performing AFFF.

403-15, 403-16AFFF (column, for High performance foam concentrate),
(Fluoroprotein and FFFP ,Fluorine Free Synthetic (column 2, for Medium performance foam concentrate) and ProteinFoams (column 3 with General use foam concentrate)
New headers and numbers for the three columns based on the revised numbers published by the ICAO and the EASAand the performance of the current US Mil specification. Below I am providing the numbers for the new first column inmetric and I am prepared to produce the equivalent table in US if the proposal is retained. First columnNote: New numbers based on ICAO level C and MIL spec testing application rates
Second column
Third column
The current table 5.3.1 Q1 and Q2 numbers of the first column are based on lesser (mediumperformance level) application rates ICAO level B of 5.5 LPM per M2. The numbers have never been adjusted followingthe evolution of agents to higher performance requirements such as ICAO level C and Mil F and appropriate testapplication densities.Safety considerations:The safety factor margins have been retained in the ICAO numbers to a level equivalent to what it was in the 3 existinglevels. As an example the test application rate of the ICAO level C is of 1.75 LPM per M2 for a calculated operationalrequirement of 3.75 LPM per M2.
Trade issues in support of identifying concentrates by performance levels:Applying a type of agent such as an AFFF or FFFP to a column just by name may constitute a trade restriction. As ahypothetical example, a newly developed super protein foam could outperform some of the lesser performing AFFF.
1. The ICAO standard which includes Level C, has not been formally published.2. Large scale fire test data (e.g. 1000 sq foot or greater) has not been provided.3. Unclear whether fluorine free foam can be used with non-air aspirating nozzles (AFFF performance assumes this).4. ICAO Level C small scale tests uses kerosene. The Mil spec used for AFFF performance uses gasoline.5. There is potential conflict between UL 162 and the ICAO Level C test performance.Retain proposal as published in the ROP.

Public Input No. 5-NFPA 424-2013 [ Section No. 13.6.2 ]
13.6.2
Triage is the sorting and classification of casualties to determine the order of priority for treatment andtransportation, which is shown in Figure 13.6.2. Triage tags and treatment area tarps should be color codedto identify the severity of injury to victims. Casualties should be classified into the following four categories:
(1) Priority I, immediate care (RED)
(2) Priority II, delayed care (YELLOW)
(3) Priority III, minor care (GREEN)
(4) Priority 0, deceased (BLACK)
Figure 13.6.2 Triage and Medical Care at Aircraft Accident Site.
Figure 13.6.2 is lacking mention of a aeromedical evacuation area. Depending upon the situation,aeromedical evacuation may be the quickest and most effective means to get critically injured to a traumacenter. Recommend you include the consideration of where to locate a hasty landing zone (LZ) for helicopter(air ambulance) evacuation of critically injured.
Statement of Problem and Substantiation for Public Input
Aircraft accidents will usually receive a great deal of attention from media and public resulting in the roads around the airport to be congested. The need for an aeromedical evacuation area and how to set one up (e.g., electrical landing lights may be damaged at the airport so expedient landing area illumination) should be included wtihin NFPA 424.
