You need to be a member to receive an informal interpretation from the
AFSA or NFSA.
Is Bob's letter to you a formal interpretation or informal?
It was my understanding that single committee members do not have
standing to issue formal interpretations, only the committee could.

I did go that route... I instead received a response from Mr. Caputo with NFPA

the design consideration for residential occupancies."
Unless I am wrong, (which I frequently am) although he (Roland) is a committee
member of the TCC for NFPA, he is with AFSA. Trust me, I would LOVE to get an
"official" response from Mr. Huggins! How would I go about getting one from
AFSA (i.e. Roland) ?
But I do think I will forward some excerpts of this thread and see where that
gets me. (probably nowhere that I want to be...)

NFPA has an email accounts setup for all NFPA codes where you can submit
questions and receive code interpretations and technical answers. The format is
setup as [email protected]. Replace the # with the code you are inquiring about.
For example, if you have a question related to the sprinkler code, you would
submit your question to [email protected].
Then Roland can 'officially' respond.
