The Fire Safety Branch at the Technical Center in Atlantic City, New Jersey, is the Federal Aviation Administration's (FAA) Research and Development (R&D) organization responsible for providing data to the regulatory organizations within the FAA for their use in developing, modifying, and/or interpreting rules and regulations pertaining to aircraft fire safety. The Fire Safety Branch has developed many of the fire safety standards adopted by civil aviation authorities throughout the world and is presently involved in R&D for future improvements. The Safety Regulation Group of the United Kingdom Civil Aviation Authority (CAA) initiates and funds research which is conducted by agencies external to the Authority. The research is 'Project Managed' by CAA staff working as a team involving technical experts, certification and regulatory specialists, and a project manager. There are programs of work in which the CAA together with other Authorities jointly manage complementary studies, an example is the research into Cabin Water Spray Systems which has involved the CAA, FAA, Transport Canada, DGAC of France, and the European Commission. In the future, it is expected that CAA research activities will increasingly involve other European Joint Aviation Authorities (JAA) as partners and become integrated into a JAA-wide program of research.
