National Fire Prevention Agency Code 472
Radsafers:
ust received a call from a major cites Fire Department who was
preparing for a HAZMAT Technicians course under the 1997 472-51
standard.
They questioned one of the referenced "units of measurement" given in
Appendix A of the Code. The question was what is "Quantity gamma"?
I admit that I don't know and was wondering if anyone had ever used
this term. The NFPA's writer/reviewer has retired and could not be
contacted. No one else at NFPA was sure what the term refered to.
If you have a clue please contact me directly - the course is
scheduled close to the end of the month.
Thanks,
James H. Ogden, Jr., Emergency Planner
