With the approval of these standards. Do you feel that your department will adopt these standards or will they say no way?

We were told that we would try to meet the standard. My dept isn't that far off from meeting it as we stand now. There are many things we will have to improve however compared to our nearest neighbors we are in a far better situation.
That was a few months ago though. So probably we are going to work towards it just like we are working towards meeting NFPA 1500.

My department will NOT adopt the standard. As far as my town goes, NFPA stands for Not F#$%&*! Practical At all..... hehehehe. Stay safe all.
