National Fire Protection Association
(NFPA) Proposes To Revise Codes and
Standards
National Institute of Standards
and Technology, Commerce.
ACTION: Notice.
AGENCY:
SUMMARY: The National Fire Protection
Association (NFPA) proposes to revise
some of its safety codes and standards
and requests proposals from the public
to amend existing or begin the process
of developing new NFPA safety codes
and standards. The purpose of this
request is to increase public
participation in the system used by
NFPA to develop its codes and
standards. The publication of this notice
of request for proposals by the National
Institute of Standards and Technology
(NIST) on behalf of NFPA is being
undertaken as a public service; NIST
does not necessarily endorse, approve,
or recommend any of the standards
referenced in the notice.
The NFPA process provides ample
opportunity for public participation in
the development of its codes and
standards. All NFPA codes and
standards are revised and updated every
three to five years in Revision Cycles
that begin twice each year and take
approximately two years to complete.
Each Revision Cycle proceeds according
to a published schedule that includes
final dates for all major events in the
process. The process contains five basic
steps that are followed both for
developing new documents as well as
revising existing documents. These
steps are: Calling for Proposals;
Publishing the Proposals in the Report
on Proposals (ROP); Calling for
Comments on the Committee’s
disposition of the proposals and these
Comments are published in the Report
on Comments (ROC); having a Technical
Report Session at the NFPA Annual
Meeting; and finally, the Standards
Council Consideration and Issuance of
documents.
Note: Under new rules effective Fall 2005,
anyone wishing to make Amending Motions
on the Technical Committee Reports (ROP
and ROC) must signal their intention by
submitting a Notice of Intent to Make a
Motion by the Deadline stated in the ROC.
Certified motions will then be posted on the
NFPA website. Documents that receive notice
of proper Amending Motions (Certified
Amending Motions) will be presented for
action at the annual June Association
Technical Meeting. Documents that receive
no motions will be forwarded directly to the
Standards Council for action on issuance.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Background
The National Fire Protection
Association (NFPA) develops building,
fire, and electrical safety codes and
standards. Federal agencies frequently
use these codes and standards as the
basis for developing Federal regulations
concerning safety. Often, the Office of
the Federal Register approves the
incorporation by reference of these
standards under 5 U.S.C. 552(a) and 1
CFR Part 51.
When a Technical Committee begins
the development of a new or revised
NFPA code or standard, it enters one of
two Revision Cycles available each year.
The Revision Cycle begins with the Call
for Proposals, that is, a public notice
asking for any interested persons to
submit specific written proposals for
developing or revising the Document.
The Call for Proposals is published in a
variety of publications. Interested
parties have approximately twenty
weeks to respond to the Call for
Proposals.
Following the Call for Proposals
period, the Technical Committee holds
a meeting to consider and accept, reject
or revise, in whole or in part, all the
submitted Proposals. The Committee
may also develop its own Proposals. A
document known as the Report on
Proposals, or ROP, is prepared
containing all the Public Proposals, the
Technical Committees’ action and each
Proposal, as well as all Committeegenerated Proposals. The ROP is then
submitted for the approval of the
Technical Committee by a formal
written ballot. If the ROP does not
receive approval by a two-thirds vote
calculated in accordance with NFPA
rules, the Report is returned to the
Committee for further consideration and
is not published. If the necessary
approval is received, the ROP is
published in a compilation of Reports
on Proposals issued by NFPA twice
yearly for public review and comment
and the process continues to the next
step.
The Reports on Proposals are sent
automatically free of charge to all who
submitted proposals and each respective
committee member, as well as anyone
else who requests a copy. All ROPs are
also available for free downloading at
https://www.nfpa.org.
Once the ROP becomes available,
there is a 60-day comment period
during which anyone may submit a
Public Comment on the proposed
changes in the ROP. The committee
then reconvenes at the end of the
comment period and acts on all
Comments.
As before, a two-thirds approval vote
by written ballot of the eligible members
of the committee is required for
approval of actions on the Comments.
All of this information is compiled into
a second Report, called the Report on
Comments (ROC), which, like the ROP,
is published and made available for
public review for a seven-week period.
The process of public input and
review does not end with the
publication of the ROP and ROC.
Following the completion of the
Proposal and Comment periods, there is
yet a further opportunity for debate and
discussion through the Technical Report
Sessions that take place at the NFPA
Annual Meeting.
The Technical Report Session
provides an opportunity for the final
Technical Committee Report (i.e., the
ROP and ROC) on each proposed new
or revised code or standard to be

presented to the NFPA membership for
the debate and consideration of motions
to amend the Report. Before making an
allowable motion at a Technical Report
Session, the intended maker of the
motion must file, in advance of the
session, and within the published
deadline, a Notice of Intent to Make a
Motion. A Motions Committee
appointed by the Standards Council
then reviews all notices and certifies all
amending motions that are proper. Only
these Certified Amending Motions,
together with certain allowable FollowUp Motions (that is, motions that have
become necessary as a result of previous
successful amending motions) will be
allowed at the Technical Report
Session.

locations of NFPA Technical Committee
meetings and NFPA Annual Technical
Report Sessions, check the NFPA Web
site at: https://www.nfpa.org/
itemDetail.asp?categoryID=822&
itemID=22818.
The specific rules for the types of
motions that can be made and who can
make them are set forth in NFPA’s
Regulation Governing Committee
Projects which should always be
consulted by those wishing to bring an
issue before the membership at a
Technical Report Session.
Interested persons may submit
proposals, supported by written data,
views, or arguments to Milosh
Puchovsky, Secretary, Standards
Council, NFPA, 1 Batterymarch Park,
Quincy, Massachusetts 02269–7471.
Proposals should be submitted on forms
available from the NFPA Codes and
Standards Administration Office or on
NFPA’s Web site at https://
www.nfpa.org.
Each person must include his or her
name and address, identify the
document and give reasons for the
proposal. Proposals received before or
by 5 p.m. local time on the closing date
indicated will be acted on by the
Committee. The NFPA will consider any
proposal that it receives on or before the
date listed with the codes or standard.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Background
The National Fire Protection Association (NFPA) develops building,
fire, and electrical safety codes and standards. Federal agencies
frequently use these codes and standards as the basis for developing
Federal regulations concerning safety. Often, the Office of the Federal
Register approves the incorporation by reference of these standards
under 5 U.S.C. 552(a) and 1 CFR Part 51.
When a Technical Committee begins the development of a new or
revised NFPA code or standard, it enters one of two Revision Cycles
available each year. The Revision Cycle begins with the Call for
Proposals, that is, a public notice asking for any interested persons
to submit specific written proposals for developing or revising the
Document. The Call for Proposals is published in a variety of
publications. Interested parties have approximately twenty weeks to
respond to the Call for Proposals.
Following the Call for Proposals period, the Technical Committee
holds a meeting to consider and accept, reject or revise, in whole or
in part, all the submitted Proposals. The Committee may also develop
its own Proposals. A document known as the Report on Proposals, or ROP,
is prepared containing all the Public Proposals, the Technical
Committees' action and each Proposal, as well as all Committee-
generated Proposals. The ROP is then submitted for the approval of the
Technical Committee by a formal written ballot. If the ROP does not
receive approval by a two-thirds vote calculated in accordance with
NFPA rules, the Report is returned to the Committee for further
consideration and is not published. If the necessary approval is
received, the ROP is published in a compilation of Reports on Proposals
issued by NFPA twice yearly for public review and comment and the
process continues to the next step.
The Reports on Proposals are sent automatically free of charge to
all who submitted proposals and each respective committee member, as
well as anyone else who requests a copy. All ROPs are also available
for free downloading at https://www.nfpa.org.
Once the ROP becomes available, there is a 60-day comment period
during which anyone may submit a Public Comment on the proposed changes
in the ROP. The committee then reconvenes at the end of the comment
period and acts on all Comments.
As before, a two-thirds approval vote by written ballot of the
eligible members of the committee is required for approval of actions
on the Comments. All of this information is compiled into a second
Report, called the Report on Comments (ROC), which, like the ROP, is
published and made available for public review for a seven-week period.
The process of public input and review does not end with the
publication of the ROP and ROC. Following the completion of the
Proposal and Comment periods, there is yet a further opportunity for
debate and discussion through the Technical Report Sessions that take
place at the NFPA Annual Meeting.
The Technical Report Session provides an opportunity for the final
Technical Committee Report (i.e., the ROP and ROC) on each proposed new
or revised code or standard to be presented to the NFPA membership for
the debate and consideration of motions to amend the Report. Before
making an allowable motion at a Technical Report Session, the intended
maker of the motion must file, in advance of the session, and within
the published deadline, a Notice of Intent to Make a Motion. A Motions
Committee appointed by the Standards Council then reviews all notices
and certifies all amending motions that are proper. Only these
Certified Amending Motions, together with certain allowable Follow-Up
Motions (that is, motions that have become necessary as a result of
