In accordance with the Office of Management and Budget Circular No. A-119, "Federal Participation in the Development and Use of Voluntary Consensus Standards and in Conformity Assessment Activities," dated January 27, 2016, the participati on on a committee of an NRC-authorized representative does not connote agency agreement wit h, or endorsement of, decisions reached by the committee, or of standards approved an d published as a result of the committees efforts. Agency representatives participating on co nsensus standards developing groups will, to the extent possible, ascertain the views of the agency on matters of interest and will express views that are consistent with established agency views.

However, the NRCs endorsement of these standards, if desired b y the NRC, would be part of a separate activity such as incorporation by reference into rulem aking or endorsement in an NRC regulatory guide.
