Subject matter experts highlight some of the biggest concerns with the proposed revised emergency standard, discuss which volunteers will be impacted, explain the NVFC’s strategy for addressing the proposed revision, and suggest best practices for departments wishing to comment on the revisions.

Good points Chief, to my mind judge's have been trying to decide cases based on NFPA standards for years, even if they weren't adopted into local law by the municipality.

Just able to watch this and it was very well put together and very clearly explained some of these issues

The volunteer department needs training. I hate hearing they are volunteers. We can't make them train.

[@christigges750]

this might be a regional problem.... there is WAY more than training in this standard. It WILL effect career departments as well
