These guidelines were prepared to assist the DOE contractor site occupational medical programs in developing NFPA-based firefighter standards that comply with the ADA. Within these guidelines, NFPA 1582 sections are quoted in the left column. Interpretive guidance, as it applies to DOE and in compliance with the requirements of ADA, appears in the adjacent right column. When no interpretive guidance appears, the NFPA guidance stands as written.
