Federal Register / Vol. 73, No. 17 / Friday, January 25, 2008 / Notices
• Device must not continue to burn
for more than 5 seconds
• No component that secures the
device to the user’s body or that secures
the cylinder must come off or be
displaced
• Breathing resistance as per EN 137
are met
• The test head must not continue to
burn for more than 5 seconds.
The closed-circuit self-contained
breathing apparatus used in the test
witnessed by NIOSH/NPPTL personnel
successfully passed all of the listed
criteria.
Additionally, the National Institute of
Standards and Technology (NIST),
Building and Fire Research Laboratory,
Fire Research Division has provided a
computational fluid dynamic (CFD)
study of oxygen dissipation into the
environment surrounding a respirator
facepiece. For this study, 3-dimensional
scans were taken of actual heads and
masks for use in the CFD software. Leak
geometries representing an imperfect
seal were defined. Other variables
included oxygen concentration fields
and flow streamlines for multiple
combinations of fuel and air in the
surrounding environment, content of
the leak, various breathing patterns, etc.
Conclusions reached during the study
were:
• Oxygen expelled through leak in
respirator is propelled away from head
region through advection and dissipates
through diffusion.
• Risk of flammable mixture near
head is observed in 10% propane
environment.
• This is an extreme environment
(fuel-rich, near flammable mixture.)
• In case of flammable environment,
oxygen leak results in small, fuel-lean
region near head.
• In fuel-lean environment, oxygen
further decreases fuel concentration.

Computational Model of Dissipation of
Oxygen from an Outward Leak of a
Closed-Circuit Breathing Device’’

work completed by NIST.
Through this announcement, NIOSH/
NPPTL is seeking input from
stakeholders and manufacturers to
determine the following:
1. Opinion on the current prohibition.
2. Provide supporting data to
maintain, modify, or rescind the current
prohibition.
3. If additional research is needed to
support rescinding the prohibition,
what would it entail?
4. Willingness to participate in a
collaborative agreement with NIOSH/
NPPTL to conduct research on this topic
and support willing to provide.
5. Other comments on the subject.
Public Comment Period: Submit input
to the NIOSH Docket Office within 60
days after the date of publication of this
notice in the Federal Register.

Comment Request
Title: April 2008 Current Population
Survey Supplement on Child Support.
OMB No.: 0992–0003.
Description: Collection of these data
will assist legislators and policymakers
in determining how effective their
policymaking efforts have been over
time in applying the various child
support legislation to the overall child
support enforcement picture. This
information will help policymakers
determine to what extent individuals on
welfare would be removed from the
welfare rolls as a result of more
stringent child support enforcement
efforts.
Respondents: Individuals and
households.
