It is the sense of Congress that— portable fire extinguishers are essential to the safety of members of the Armed Forces and their families; the current United Facilities Criteria could be updated to ensure it provides members of the Armed Forces, their families, and other Department of Defense personnel with the most modern fire protection standards that are met by their civilian counterparts, including requiring portable fire extinguishers on military installations; United Facilities Criteria 3–600–01, Section 4–9, dated September 26, 2006, addresses the national and international standards for fire safety and Department of Defense Facilities; and the Secretary of Defense should consider amending the current United Facilities Criteria Section 9–17.1 to address the standards outlined by United Facilities Criteria 3–600–01, Section 4–9, dated September 26, 2006.
