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.

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.

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.
