Enclosed for your review and ballot is the first draft of NSF 375 Sustainability Assessment for Water Contact Products, issue 1 (375i1r1). Please review the ballot for this standard and submit your vote by June 13, 2014 via the NSF online workspace (http://standards.nsf.org).
After consideration of the Joint Committee’s discussion on conformance as well as comments received during the straw ballot, editorial corrections were made as well as changes to section 4. The criteria in section 4 were updated to reflect that all prerequisites and requisites are required as well as 30% of the optional criteria to claim conformance. The intent is to create a credible and robust standard for this sustainability assessment.
Each Joint Committee member may vote affirmative, abstain, or negative with comment. Each negative vote must be justified in the comment section. Please include exactly why you oppose and what changes must be made in order for you to support the proposed draft Standard.
Comments submitted during the balloting period as well as the public comment period will be responded to in writing. New substantive issues will be brought forward to the Joint Committee during a revision ballot (if applicable). |
