The National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health (NIOSH) released a safety advisory last month: Understanding Multi-gas Monitor Readings – The Importance of Knowing Your Equipment. This safety advisory provides recommendations for fire departments to ensure firefighters are trained to safely use and interpret data from multi-gas monitors to determine if a hazardous atmosphere is present when responding to natural gas and propane incidents. This information can be important for sites with their own emergency response teams.
