Federal Research on Chemical Protective Clothing and Equipment: A Summary of Federal Programs for Fiscal Year 1988.

PB90171638

Publication Date	1989
Page Count	86
Abstract	A Federal Interagency Work Group was established to coordinate Federally-funded efforts to improve the protection afforded by chemical protective clothing and equipment. Current participants of the Work Group include the United States Coast Guard, the United States Environmental Protection Agency, the United States Fire Administration, the National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health, and the Occupational Safety and Health Administration. The National Aeronautics and Space Administration has recently joined the Work Group, but project summaries have not been incorporated in the report. Two of the Work Group's objectives are: To establish mechanisms for transmitting chemical protective clothing material/chemical compatibility data, selection information, research results, and relevant field experience to U.S. workers, those responsible for their protection, the research community, and any other interested persons; and to prepare periodic summaries of Federally-funded research and development activities for chemical protective clothing and equipment for the U.S. Coast Guard, the general research and user community, and any other interested group.
