The Committee on Aircraft Rescue and Fire Fighting produced a First Revision

revised in the First Draft Report, shall be considered a consent document.
According to 4.4.8.4 of the Regulations Governing the Development of NFPA
Standards, NFPA 424 will be forwarded directly to the Standards Council for
action in accordance with Section 4.7.
