AGENCY: National Institute of Standards
and Technology, Commerce.
ACTION: Notice.
SUMMARY: Since 1896, the National Fire
Protection Association (NFPA) has
accomplished its mission by advocating
scientifically based consensus codes
and standards, research, and education
for safety related issues. NFPA’s
National Fire Codes®, which hold over
290 documents, are administered by
PO 00000
Frm 00006
Fmt 4703
Sfmt 4703
more than 238 Technical Committees
comprised of approximately 7,200
volunteers and are adopted and used
throughout the world. NFPA is a
nonprofit membership organization
with approximately 80,000 members
from over 70 nations, all working
together to fulfill the Association’s
mission.
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 that 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 Code Revision Process
contains five basic steps that are
followed for developing new documents
as well as revising existing documents:
Call for Proposals; Report on Proposals
(ROP); Call for Comments on the
Committee’s Disposition of the
Proposals and publication of these
Comments in the Report on Comments
(ROC); the Association Technical
Meeting at the NFPA Conference &
Expo; and finally, the Standards Council
Consideration and Issuance of
documents.
Note: NFPA rules state that anyone
wishing to make Amending Motions on the
Technical Committee Reports (ROP and ROC)
must signal his or her intention by
submitting a Notice of Intent to Make a
Motion by the Deadline of 5 p.m. EST/EDST
on or before April 9, 2010. Certified motions
will be posted by May 7, 2010. Documents
that receive notice of proper Amending
Motions (Certified Amending Motions) will
be presented for action at the Annual 2010
Association Technical Meeting. Documents
that receive no motions will be forwarded
directly to the Standards Council for action
on issuance at its June 1, 2010 meeting.
For more information on these new
rules and for up-to-date information on
schedules and deadlines for processing
NFPA Documents, check the NFPA Web
site at www.nfpa.org, or contact NFPA
Codes and Standards Administration.
The purpose of this notice is to
request comments on the technical
reports that will be presented at NFPA’s
2010 Annual Revision Cycle. The
publication of this notice 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.
DATES: Twenty-four reports are
published in the 2010 Annual Cycle
Report on Proposals and will be

Federal Register / Vol. 74, No. 88 / Friday, May 8, 2009 / Notices

received by 5 p.m. EST/EDST on or

considered by the respective NFPA
Committees before final action is taken
on the proposals.

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 fire 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.
Request for Comments
Interested persons may participate in
these revisions by submitting written
data, views, or arguments, to Amy
