XSD Schema, and TR 40) (reaffirmation of ANSI X9.100-182-2011)
Organizations receiving images from multiple sources generally are not
equipped to recognize all the images received because vendors use diverse
image compression and image file formats. This media-based image
exchange format will standardize the export and import of image data
regardless of what type of hardware/software was used to capture, store or
export the images. Software standardized to a media-based image
exchange format will allow image data to be usable across vendor platforms
thus reducing expense, duplication of effort and assist with archiving and
retrieval processes. In addition, the media-based image exchange format
allows a common index structure for such exchanges, thus benefitting a
diverse community of users.

This Standard provides minimum specifications for the quality and

dimensions of naturally durable hardwood poles without preservative
treatment to be used in single-pole utility structures. The poles described are
considered as simple cantilever members subject to transverse loads only.
Fiber strength values, provided as a basis for determining pole class sizes,
apply only to poles that meet or exceed the minimum quality specifications.
These fiber strength values may be used to estimate average groundline
moment capacity of the poles listed therein.

operation under conditions normally found in outside plant communication
systems. Typically, these products are installed in protected ducts but may
be also run for short distances in both exposed areas and in concealed
areas (such as handholes), with or without external protection. Due to the
thinner jacket usually associated with microduct cables, they typically do not
have the jacket durability to be pulled into conduit for long distances even at
or below the rated tensile strength. Additionally, the impact resistance,
compression resistance and tensile strength requirements for cables
covered by this Standard may be significantly lower than those for
conventional outside plant cables covered by ICEA-640. Therefore,
installation of cables covered by this Standard by techniques such as
capstan pulling, aerial lashing, trenching, and direct burial is not
recommended.

Ballasts (revision of ANSI C82.11-2011)
This standard is intended to cover high frequency ballasts which have rated
open-circuit voltages of 2000 volts or less, operate the lamp at frequencies
between 10 kHz and 500 kHz, and are intended to operate at a supply
frequency of 50 Hz or 60 Hz. This comprises ballasts for hot-cathode
fluorescent lamps, either switch-start (preheat-start), rapid-start
(continuously heated cathodes), modified rapid start, programmed start, or
instant start used primarily for lighting purposes. The ballast and lamp
combinations covered by this specification are normally intended for use in
room ambient temperatures of 10C to 40C. At ambient temperatures
outside this range, certain special operating characteristics may be required.

BSR/ANS 19.11-201x, Calculation and Measurement of the Moderator
Temperature Coefficient of Reactivity for Pressurized Water Reactors
(revision of ANSI/ANS 19.11-1997 (R2011))
This standard provides guidance and specifies criteria for determining the
MTC in water-moderated power reactors. Measurement of the isothermal
temperature coefficient of reactivity (ITC) at hot zero power (HZP) conditions
is covered in ANSI/ANS 19.6.1-2005, Reload Startup Physics Tests for
Pressurized Water Reactors. This standard therefore addresses the
calculation of the ITC at HZP and the calculation and measurement of the
MTC at power. At present, this standard addresses the calculation and
measurement of the MTC only in PWRs, because that is the only type of
power reactor currently sited in the United States for which measurement of
the MTC is required.

BSR/NEBB S130-201x, Cleanroom Performance Testing (new

standard)
Stakeholders: Private and government building owners and building
operators, general contractors, subcontractors, commissioners, testing
firms, design engineers, healthcare industry and regulatory agencies.
Project Need: The industry currently relies on multiple standards from
ISO and IEST. The NEBB Procedural Standard compiles the
requirements of multiple entities into one standard that can be used by
industry stakeholders as the standard for continued compliance.
Procedures are necessary for verification of compliance for regulatory
agencies.
This standard details the requirements for certification activities and
documentation for continued compliance with regulatory agencies and
industry stakeholders and will incorporate and reference standards for
specific equipment.
BSR/NEBB S140-201x, Standards for Compounding Pharmacy
Certification (new standard)
Stakeholders: Private and government building owners and building
operators, general contractors, subcontractors, commissioners, testing
firms, design engineers, healthcare industry and regulatory agencies.
Project Need: Existing industry standards (USP 797 and USP 800 and
21 CFR 211 503b) define the operating criteria for compounding
pharmacy spaces but do not define certification processes or
documentation requirements. Procedures are necessary for verification
of compliance for regulatory agencies.
This standard details the requirements for certification activities and
documentation for continued compliance with regulatory agencies and
industry stakeholders and will incorporate and reference standards for
specific equipment.

American National Standards Maintained Under

Continuous Maintenance
The ANSI Essential Requirements: Due Process Requirements for American National Standards
provides two options for the maintenance of American National Standards (ANS): periodic
maintenance (see clause 4.7.1) and continuous maintenance (see clause 4.7.2). Continuous
maintenance is defined as follows:
The standard shall be maintained by an accredited standards developer. A documented program for
periodic publication of revisions shall be established by the standards developer. Processing of these
revisions shall be in accordance with these procedures. The published standard shall include a clear
statement of the intent to consider requests for change and information on the submittal of such
requests. Procedures shall be established for timely, documented consensus action on each request
for change and no portion of the standard shall be excluded from the revision process. In the event
that no revisions are issued for a period of four years, action to reaffirm or withdraw the standard shall
be taken in accordance with the procedures contained in the ANSI Essential Requirements.
The Executive Standards Council (ExSC) has determined that for standards maintained under the
Continuous Maintenance option, separate PINS announcements are not required. The following ANSI
Accredited Standards Developers have formally registered standards under the Continuous
Maintenance option.
