Reports outlining the overdue reviews for Standards and TIPs were sent to the Quality and Standards Management Committee (Q&SMC) on August 10, 2012. Copies of these reports were also sent to the assigned Working Group Chairmen for these overdue reviews as well as to chairmen of the appropriate technical groups in TAPPI.


Anyone who did not receive the overdue reports but who have an interest may obtain copies by requesting them from standards@tappi.org.


Working Group Chairmen: These reports were sent to you for your information and action, if required. Q&SMC may, according to the Standards Guidelines, withdraw any Standards or TIPs whose reviews are overdue, especially if it appears that little progress is being made on the Work Item. If more information or indications of progress on these Work Items are received prior to the next meeting (November 1, 2012), Q&SMC will take these reports of progress under consideration.


If you are working on a Standard that will be ready to go to the Standards Advisory Review Group (SARG) for final approval, please be aware that the SARG agenda must be posted on the web at least 30 days before their next meeting on May 1, 2011. This means that any standards that are ready for SARG must be submitted no later than September 4, 2012, in order to be included in the Fall 2012 SARG agenda.

 
To provide updates regarding these reports, send a message to to standards@tappi.org no later than Monday, October 29, 2012, in order to be able to provide this information to Q&SMC at their next 24meeting.

TAPPI Standards guidelines require that all TAPPI members receive notification of any proposed new Standard or TIPs. This message is being sent to you because you are a TAPPI member; have purchased TIPs or Standards products from TAPPI; or because you have previously expressed interest in this topic.
