28、for Responding to Hazardous Materials Inci-dents, was prepared by the Technical Committee on Hazardous Materials Response Personneland acted on by NFPA at its November Association Technical Meeting held November 1014,2001, in Dallas, TX. It was issued by the Standards Council on January 11, 2002, wi
29、th aneffective date of January 31, 2002, and supersedes all previous editions.This edition of NFPA 471 was approved as an American National Standard on January 31,2002.Origin and Development of NFPA 471At the July 1985 NFPA Standards Council meeting, approval was given to the concept of anew project
30、 on Hazardous Materials Response Personnel. The Council directed that a pro-posed scope and start-up roster for the new Committee be prepared, taking into account theneed to expand the Committee membership beyond the fire service and the applicationbeyond “professional qualifications.”The first meet
31、ing of the Technical Committee on Hazardous Materials Response Per-sonnel took place in October 1986. The Committee proceeded to develop the first editionof NFPA 471 in conjunction with the first edition of NFPA 472, Standard on ProfessionalCompetence of Responders to Hazardous Materials Incidents.
32、Both documents were first re-leased as 1989 editions.Interest in the subject of hazardous materials, especially as it relates to the emergencyresponder, continued at a high level. Some of this interest was due to an increased awarenessof the magnitude of the problem; much of it can be credited to fe
33、deral regulations in theUnited States that have had an impact on all responders.Revisions were made to both NFPA documents in 1992 editions. At the same time theCommittee introduced a new related document, NFPA 473, Standard for Professional Competen-cies for EMS Personnel Responding to Hazardous Ma
34、terials Incidents.In 1993 the Committee again began reviewing NFPA 471 for the purpose of revising it. TheCommittee made several changes to the resulting 1997 edition in order to ensure that the docu-ment remained consistent with NFPA 472, which had gained wide international acceptance.The 2002 edit
35、ion contains additional minor revisions for continued consistency withNFPA 472. Some changes were the result of conformance with the 2000 edition of the NFPAManual of Style.The gratitude of the Committee is extended to all who participated in the developmentand review process, and especially to the
36、individuals not on the Committee who helped somuch.The Committee would like to dedicate this recommended practice to the fallen heroes ofthe terrorist attack of September 11, 2001. Many lives were saved because of their efforts.These individuals gave the ultimate sacrifice in the line of duty and st
37、and alone in theirbravery and dedication to their jobs and their country. Our thoughts and prayers are withtheir families, friends, and co-workers. Let us never forget these brave individuals and theother emergency responders who have died in the line of duty. The Committee especiallywishes to honor
