Regarding the items for consideration in 5.1.5, I would suggest adding the following: Under (27) SCBAaccessories: - In-mask displays - Redundancy of critical life safety systems - Facepiece compatibility with otherrespiratory protection products, such as air-purifying respirators and powered air-purifying respirators -Comprehensiveness of manufacturer’s warranty terms I would recommend changing the following in 5.1.5: •Item(1) Change to “Cleaning and decontamination requirements” •Item (11) Change to "Number and complexity ofsteps involved in operation and maintenance of the SCBA, including any forced maintenance requirements”

Proposed language should not be added. It is my opinion the NFPA 1981 TC should not be approving the use ofliquid air for structural firefighting activities until the technology is better understood and concerns and/or questionscan be adequately addressed.

Miles, Stephen T.

NFPA 1989 does not make provision for, or address "cryogenic liquid air" as a source for breathing air. Thetechnical committee is proposing that the standard be revised to include liquid air manufacture, storage, sampling,and analysis methodology. There is insufficient information on the safe blending of breathing air for me to supportthis for fire fighting operations at this point. Breathing air and water are the two most important factors for firesuppression. Mixed gas breathing air, re-breathers, and synthetic air all have their place in their technicaldiscipline fields. Those applications are beyond the standard fire suppression operations. I don't have enoughinformation to support this at this time.
