Recommendations Due to INCITS Secretariat
12/15/08 |
To: | Mr. John Lohmeyer, INCITS T10 Chairman |
Dear John:
Subject: Notification to INCITS T10 for 2009 National Standards Maintenance Recommendations
In accordance with INCITS procedures,
action must be taken during the four-year anniversary of a standard's
approval date to either reaffirm, withdraw or stablize
the standard. Five-year maintenance actions should be completed before
the end of the fifth year (December 2009).
If the TC recommendation is revision,
a project proposal describing the proposed revision should be submitted
with the recommendation to reaffirm, pending revision. If a standard is
currently under revision, the customary four-year action would be
reaffirmation of the current standard, pending completion of the
revision.
If the recommendation is for
stabilization, the TC shall include the rationale for the
recommendation with the vote and the following requirements must be met:
Requested
Action
According to the records of the INCITS
Secretariat, your TC should review the attached list of standards and
forward a recommendation to reaffirm, withdraw or stabilize each
standard listed below. This review should include any associated
amendments and corrigenda.
Each recommendation shall be approved by
letter ballot or meeting vote with a two-thirds criteria for approval.
Additionally, for approvals conducted at a meeting, a withdrawal
recommendation is by roll-call vote and reaffirmation and stabilization
recommendations are by meeting vote.
Upon approval by the Technical Committee, the recommendation(s) should be forwarded to the INCITS Secretariat for action by the due date noted above. If a recommendation is not forthcoming from the technical committee, the INCITS Executive Board shall make a recommendation on this issue without the benefit of the Technical Committee's input at their next meeting.
Please contact me, if you have any questions.
Sincerely,
