Project Initiation Notification System (PINS)


ANSI Procedures require notification of ANSI by ANSI-accredited standards developers (ASD) of the initiation and scope of activities expected to result in
new or revised American National Standards (ANS). Early notification of activity intended to reaffirm or withdraw an ANS and in some instances a PINS
related to a national adoption is optional. The mechanism by which such notification is given is referred to as the PINS process. For additional information,
see clause 2.4 of the ANSI Essential Requirements: Due Process Requirements for American National Standards.

Following is a list of proposed actions and new ANS that have been received recently from ASDs. Please also review the section in Standards Action
entitled "American National Standards Maintained Under Continuous Maintenance" for additional or comparable information with regard to standards
maintained under the continuous maintenance option. To view information about additional standards for which a PINS has been submitted and to search
approved ANS, please visit www.NSSN.org, which is a database of standards information. Note that this database is not exhaustive.

Directly and materially affected interests wishing to receive more information or to submit comments are requested to contact the standards developer
directly within 30 days of the publication of this announcement.

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.

ISO TC 39/SC 2 – Test conditions for metal cutting machine tools

Currently, the U.S. holds a leadership position as secretariat of ISO/TC 39/SC 2 (Test conditions
for metal cutting machine tools). ANSI has delegated the responsibility for the administration of
the secretariat for ISO/TC 39/SC 2 to NIST. NIST has advised ANSI of its intent to relinquish its
role as delegated secretariat for this committee.

ISO/TC 39/SC 2 operates under the following scope:

Standardization of all machine tools for the working of metal, wood and plastics, operating by
removal of material or by pressure.

ANSI is seeking organizations in the U.S. that may be interested in assuming the role of
delegated secretariat for ISO/TC 39/SC 2. Alternatively, ANSI may be assigned the responsibility
for administering an ISO secretariat. Any request that ANSI accepts to direct administration of an
ISO secretariat shall demonstrate that:

1) The affected interests have made a financial commitment for not less than three years
covering all defined costs incurred by ANSI associated with holding the secretariat;
2) The affected technical sector, organizations or companies desiring that the U.S. hold the
secretariat request that ANSI perform this function;
3) The relevant US TAG has been consulted with regard to ANSI’s potential role as
secretariat; and
4) ANSI is able to fulfill the requirements of a secretariat.

If no U.S. organization steps forward to assume the ISO/TC 39/SC 2 secretariat, or if there is
insufficient support for ANSI to assume direct administration of this activity, then ANSI will inform
the ISO Central Secretariat that the U.S. will relinquish its leadership of the committee. This will
allow ISO to solicit offers from other countries interested in assuming the secretariat role.

Information concerning the United States retaining the role of international secretariat may be
obtained by contacting ANSI at [email protected].

ISO TC 108/SC 5 – Condition monitoring and diagnostics of machine


systems
Currently, the U.S. holds a leadership position as secretariat of ISO/TC 108/SC 5 (Condition
monitoring and diagnostics of machine systems). ANSI has delegated the responsibility for the
administration of the secretariat for ISO/TC 108/SC 5 to the Acoustical Society of America (ASA).
ASA has advised ANSI of its intent to relinquish its role as delegated secretariat for this
committee.

ISO/TC 108/SC 5 operates under the following scope:

Standardization of the procedures, processes and equipment requirements uniquely related to


the technical activity of condition monitoring and diagnostics of machines systems in which
selected physical parameters associated with an operating machine system are periodically or
continuously sensed, measured and recorded for the interim purpose of reducing, analyzing,
comparing and displaying the data and information so obtained and for the ultimate purpose of
using this interim result to support decisions related to the operation and maintenance of the
machine system.

ANSI is seeking organizations in the U.S. that may be interested in assuming the role of
delegated secretariat for ISO/TC 108/SC 5. Alternatively, ANSI may be assigned the
responsibility for administering an ISO secretariat. Any request that ANSI accepts to direct
administration of an ISO secretariat shall demonstrate that:

1) The affected interests have made a financial commitment for not less than three years
covering all defined costs incurred by ANSI associated with holding the secretariat;
2) The affected technical sector, organizations or companies desiring that the U.S. hold the
secretariat request that ANSI perform this function;
3) The relevant US TAG has been consulted with regard to ANSI’s potential role as
secretariat; and
4) ANSI is able to fulfill the requirements of a secretariat.

If no U.S. organization steps forward to assume the ISO/TC 108/SC 5 secretariat, or if there is
insufficient support for ANSI to assume direct administration of this activity, then ANSI will inform
the ISO Central Secretariat that the U.S. will relinquish its leadership of the committee. This will
allow ISO to solicit offers from other countries interested in assuming the secretariat role.
