Subject: NFPA 909 First Draft TC FINAL Ballot Results (F2016)

According to the final ballot results, all ballot items received the necessary affirmative votes to pass ballot.

26 Members Eligible to Vote

2 Members Not Returned (D. Nichols, J. Watts, Jr.)

20 Members Voted Affirmative on All Revisions

4 Members Voted Negative on one or more Revisions (D. Freeland, D. Moeller, C. Portway, M.

Puchovsky)

0 Members Abstained on one or more Revisions

The attached report shows the number of affirmative, negative, and abstaining votes as well as the explanation of

the vote for each first revision.

There are two criteria necessary for each first revision to pass ballot: (1) simple majority and (2) affirmative 2/3

vote. The mock examples below show how the calculations are determined.

(1) Example for Simple Majority: Assuming there are 20 vote eligible committee members, 11 affirmative votes

are required to pass ballot. (Sample calculation: 20 members eligible to vote ÷ 2 = 10 + 1 = 11)

(2) Example for Affirmative 2/3: Assuming there are 20 vote eligible committee members and 1 member did not

return their ballot and 2 members abstained, the number of affirmative votes required would be 12. (Sample

calculation: 20 members eligble to vote – 1 not returned – 2 abstentions = 17 x 0.66 = 11.22 = 12 )

As always please feel free to contact me if you have any questions.

Negative with CommentFreeland, Deborah L. While I concur that the commissioning required by NFPA 4, the retroactivity requirement forexisting buildings, with the responsibility for obtaining documentation and generating testingprocedures resting on the owner, could be quite onerous for especially a historic cultural



resource property, with limited resources.Portway, Chris NFPA 4 appears to require retroactive commissioning of existing systems, and relies onowners to produce information on old, existing systems (that sometimes simply does not exist).It also appears to require owners to have specific technical expertise, including the ability todevelop testing requirements. Representing an owner with numerous large and older culturalresource facilities, but also with very limited resources, these requirements may be veryburdensome. While NFPA 4 is a necessary improvement for integrated systems, I believe itneeds work in these specific areas.

A.8.1.1 NFPA 730, Guide for Premises Security , provides guidance on conducting securityvulnerability assessments and developing appropriate countermeasures.

As outlined in NFPA 730, a security vulnerability assessment (SVA) usually involves asevenstep process as follows:

Step 1: Formation of Team. The process should begin with the formation of a team ofpersonnel from all organizational areas. Commonly, the individual responsible for anorganization's security serves as team leader.

Step 2: Organization/Facility Characterization. Step 2 involves a characterization of anorganization and the facilities to be protected. It includes identification of assets (i.e.,people, property, information, and products); physical features and operations; laws,regulations, and corporate policies; social and political environment and internal activity(i.e., community resources, crime statistics, internal activities, and loss experience); andreview of “current layers of protection,” including both site security features and safetymeasures.

Step 3: Threat Assessment. The next step is conducting a threat assessment. Theprocess includes a classification of critical assets, identification of potential targets,consequence analysis (effect of loss, including any potential offsite consequence), andthe definition of potential threats (by identifying potential adversaries and what is knownabout them).

Step 4: Threat Vulnerability Analysis. The next step is conducting a threat vulnerabilityanalysis that identifies actual and potential threat scenarios and estimates a relativesecurity risk level. The relative security risk level is a function of determining theseverity of the consequences of an adversarial event, the potential for such an attack,and the likelihood of adversary success in carrying out the anticipated event or activity.

Step 5: Definition of Specific Security Countermeasures. In this step, specific securitycountermeasures are defined. All information from the preceding steps, includingcharacterization, threat assessment, and vulnerability analysis, is considered. Aneffective countermeasure is one that drives improvements in mitigating the definedthreats and results in a reduction in the security risk level.

With respect to the development of security countermeasures, and in consideration ofthe defined threats, the SVA team's efforts to strengthen the security layers ofprotection begins with a focus on the concentric circles of protection designmethodology, shown in Figure A.8.1.1.

Figure A.8.1.1 Concentric Circles of Protection. (Source: SafePlaceCorporation.) [730:Figure A.5.2.3(2 5 )]



This methodology provides for protection of defined critical assets by considering thefollowing four primary protection elements of an effective protection plan design:

(1) Deter — discouraging an adversary from attempting an assault by reducing thelikelihood of a successful attack.

(2) Detect — determining that an undesirable event has occurred or is occurring.Detection includes sensing the event, communicating the alarm to an attendedlocation, and assessing the alarm.

(3) Delay — impeding adversary penetration into a protected area.

(4) Respond — counteracting adversary activity and interrupting the undesirable event.

Arson, theft, sabotage, or other malevolent acts can be prevented in two ways, by eitherdeterring the adversary or defeating the adversary. In the development of securitycountermeasures, it is important to understand that a properly designed andimplemented security program integrates people, procedures, and technologies for theprotection of assets. The use of technologies alone is not the solution.

The “new world” we live in poses a new challenge: the increased presence and threat ofadversarial attack. Our journey now involves an important dual approach, thecombination of today's security methodologies with traditional safety and riskmanagement practices to strengthen security layers of protection.

An effective security program, resulting from the completion and implementation of acomprehensive SVA, provides measurable benefits in the workplace for personnel (staff,guests, and visitors), in the protection of property, and in operations, resulting inenhanced business performance.

Step 6: Assessment of Risk Reduction. Taking into account the countermeasuresdefined in Step 5, this step reassesses the relative security risk levels developed inStep 4 and considers additional security risk reduction measures (securitycountermeasures) where appropriate.

Step 7: Documentation of Findings and Tracking of Implementation. Findings andrecommendations are documented in a report and the implementation of acceptedrecommendations is tracked.

A.9.12.13 See Table A.9.12.13 for known advantages and potential concerns associated withvarious types of automatic sprinkler systems, piping materials, and types of sprinklers.Table A.9.12.13 Considerations for Automatic Sprinkler System Types and Materials

Known Advantages Potential ConcernsTypes ofSystemsWet pipe Traditional high reliability

systems with water underpressure in piping at alltimes using heatactuatedsprinklers; lowestmaintenance requirements ofall system types

Mechanical damage to sprinklers or piping inlowceiling areas, overheating, and freezingcan all result in discharge of water

Antifreeze Advantages of wet pipesystems with reducedconcern for freezing

Traditional antifreeze Antifreeze solutions arenow limited restricted to those that are listedfor use in fire sprinkler systems due toconcerns for combustibility of sprinkler spray,especially for small orifice sprinklers at highpressures

Dry pipe Air or nitrogen in pipingunder moderate pressure 2–3 bar [(30–40 psi) nominal]protects against freezing andprevents water discharge inthe event of small leaks

Air Reduced reliability due to increasedmaintenance requirements; 30% increase inwater demand; air in piping with residual watercan lead to premature corrosion of steel pipingsystems; mechanical damage to sprinklers orpiping will result in water flow; water supplymust be in a heated area

Preaction— singleinterlock

Requires separate detectionsystem to activate beforewater is introduced to piping;protects against freezing andprevents discharge of waterin the event of mechanical orcorrosion damage tosprinklers or piping

Reduced reliability due to dependence onseparate detection system; air in piping withresidual water can lead to premature corrosionof steel piping systems; significantly higherlevel of regular maintenance

Preaction— doubleinterlock

Requires both detectionsystem and at least onesprinkler to activate beforewater is introduced to piping;best protection foroccupancies such asfreezers where water inpiping can alone be a

Slowest system response to fires; reducedreliability due to dependence on separatedetection system; air in piping with residualwater can lead to premature corrosion of steelpiping systems; significantly higher level orregular maintenance



concernPreaction— noninterlock

Water entering piping withactivation of either detectionsystem or sprinklerincreases reliability overother types of preactionsystems while excludingwater in normal readycondition; protects againstfreezing

Does not provide added protection againstrelease of water in the event of mechanical orcorrosion damage to sprinklers for piping; air inpiping with residual water can lead topremature corrosion of steel piping systems

Preaction— preprimed

Requires separate detectionsystem to activate to allowwater to enter piping inexcess of priming water,limiting potential discharge inthe event of mechanical orcorrosion damage tosprinklers or piping

Reduced reliability due to dependence onseparate detection system

Deluge Ability to quickly dischargelarge quantities of waterappropriate for specialhazards only

Activation results in water dischargethroughout protected area; air in piping withresidual water can lead to premature corrosionof steel piping systems

Water mist Can provide performancesimilar to traditional sprinklersystems using less water;smaller pipe sizes thansprinkler systems

No standard design method available; reducedreliability due to very small nozzle orifices andgreater number of required operatingcomponents; requires specialized installation;and maintenance personnel; nozzle dischargepressures higher for some systems; potentialfor physical damage to articles and property inclose proximity to nozzles

Types ofPipingMaterialsSteel —standardwall

Traditional strength andreliability

Corrosion concerns over time, especially withresidual water in pipe for dry and preactionsystems

Steel —thinwall

Reduced wall thickness andjoining with mechanicalfittings allows lower cost(wall thickness comparableto remaining wall outsidefitting for traditional threadedsystems)

Corrosion concerns over time, especially withresidual water in pipe for dry and preactionsystems; some concern that grooves placedon piping prevent complete drainage

Coppertube

Less susceptible tocorrosion than steel pipingsystems

More expensive than steel systems; firehazard of allowable joining methods

CPVC(chlorinatedpolyvinylchloride)

Not susceptible to corrosion;clean installation and fieldfabrication ideal for retrofit

Compatibility concerns, especially with regardto internal, and external exposures to materialscontaining plasticizers or hydrocarbons; mustbe in strict accordance with 9.12.13.4

Stainlesssteel

Highest High degree ofcorrosion resistance

Increased expense; corrosion concern withsprinkler seats unless stainless steelsprinklers also utilized

Types of



SprinklersStandardresponse

Traditional strength andreliability against accidentaldischarge; leastmaintenance and lowesttesting requirements;

Lack of improved performance throughtechnological advancements in sprinklerthermal sensitivity

Quickresponse

Improved sensitivity allowsreaction to smaller fire andincreases effectiveness ofavailable water supplies

Reduced mass of sprinkler thermal elementmakes it somewhat more susceptible toaccidental discharge if proper care is not takenin handling and installation

Residential Combines increased thermalsensitivity of quickresponsesprinklers with high wallwetting appropriate fortypical small compartmentsof residential occupancies
