2-2.3 Space Data.

The data upon which the interactive worksheet is based is illustrated in Appendix C. Do

not use Appendix C to develop the space program--use only the interactive worksheet.

The space program developed through the use of the interactive worksheet serves as a

space allowed. The final space program for a new Fire Station will need to be carefully

determined by Installation representatives and the appropriate Service program office

guided by the criteria in this UFC.
