Re: Fire Safety & The Green Movement
JP:
I totally agree with us being more involved and hopefully we will. Our state had representation there for all hearings but I was appalled by the mass departure once again and let it be known to some of the “suites” there. The serious ones stayed but we were again out numbered for the votes on other important issues.
With regards to the NFPA process, there seems to be much more tweaking at committee levels to rid the process of much of the fluff and show. In my opinion it’s much more serious but the politics can still come through on occasion with a heated issue.
