The report proposes two testing protocols, one for passive detectors and one for active detectors, to help ensure the reliable detection of a release of chemical warfare agents. The report determined that testing these detectors by release of chemical warfare agents into the atmosphere would not provide additional useful information on the effectiveness of these detectors than would a rigorous testing protocol using chemical agents in the laboratory combined with atmospheric release of simulated chemical warfare agents. 606 $aEnvironmental sciences$xResearch$zUnited States 606 $aEnvironmental engineering$zUnited States 615 0$aEnvironmental sciences$xResearch 615 0$aEnvironmental engineering 676 $a623.4/592 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910973555403321 996 $aTesting and evaluation of standoff chemical agent detectors$94366952 997 $aUNINA
