NCSLI 170 - Documentary Standards Quarterly
171- Steve Doty - Calibration System Resources will be meeting at MSC. The 171 completed the extended review for the BOD in mid- December. The Handbook was updated for BOD comments and routed to BOD for approval, in preparation for the BOD meeting in San Diego. Steve has established 171 Working Group Two, 17025 Handbook Writing Committee. This committee will be meeting at MSC to begin work. The 171 is seeking to establish Working Group Three for a RP or Handbook for Accreditation Bodies for assessing calibration laboratories to meet the requirements of ANSI/NCSLI Z540.3 2006, sub clause 5.3. Barbara Belzer feels the 175 has enough on their plate with the Traceability RP. The 171 will go ahead with this and we will seek AB representation and keep the 175 in the loop on our progress. Barbara agreed, just stating we must ensure we are communicating regularly on this. Del and Steve both gave presentations at the NCSLI Virginia Section meeting in Virginia Beach
172-Doug Cooper - Laboratory Facilities is meeting at MSC. The facilities committee is intending on creating a new RP for re-establishing a lab after a move or major renovation. We are soliciting participation of people who have gone through the pain of relocating their laboratories and have insight to all the details that need to be addressed for re-establishing the laboratory.

Additional analysis examples for Appendices I through K are scheduled for completion by late August or early September, 2008. The NCSLI on-line peer review process is tentatively scheduled for late September or early October, 2008.
o 174-Bob Fritzsche – 174 Accredited Standards Committee The 174 Accredited Standards Committee met during the 2008 Measurement Science Conference. Several new members were added to the committee. Those were: Tim Osborn, Dynamic Technology (Member); Hy Tran, Sandia (Member); Andrea Claudette, Sandia (Alternate); Barry Fleming, Rohde & Schwarz (Alternate); and Susanne Canning, Oakridge (Alternate). The Committee continues to work on the integration of ANSI/NCSL Z540.3-2006 into the greater measurement community. Concern over the implementation of the requirements contained in Section 5.3 continues to exist due to the significant difference between the use of a Test Accuracy Ratio (or Test Uncertainty Ratio) and the calculation of false accept probabilities. The Z540.3 Handbook that is being developed by the 171 Committee, Working Group 1, should greatly assist in that regard since it includes some practical examples of how to comply with the requirement. Once the draft is completed, the 174 Committee members will get a chance to review the document and provide feedback. A new task being undertaken by the 174 Committee relates to the upcoming review of ANSI/ISO/IEC 17025. It is not due for reaffirmation until 2010, but the Committee is actively soliciting comments from the membership (and others) on recommendations for changes that would be forwarded to the US representative to ISO. Comments are to be forwarded to the Committee Chair for coordination and execution. The Committee will meet at NCSLI in Orlando. Meeting is scheduled to be held on Monday, August 4th from 4 to 6pm.
o 175-Barbara Belzer– Accreditation Resources. (report is delayed)
o 176-Tom Flynn– Calibration/Certification Procedures. Implemented an “RP-3 Introduction” presentation at Region 1430 meeting in May with the intent of making it available as a presentation at Regional NCSLI meetings. Feedback was positive and it was suggested by an attendee that NCSLI promote the RPs at the regional meetings with presentations of this sort. The committee would like to have someone within the various regions volunteer to give the RP-3 presentation at the regional meetings. Committee members would work with the volunteer to answer any questions they may have. Further committee work will be done on the presentation to expand it.
