ISA Standards: New Projects and Public Review
As part of its accreditation by the American National Standards Institute (ANSI), ISA must submit two types of official forms to ANSI to announce (a) the start of a standards project and (b) the public review of a draft standard in development. Please see ANSI Project Initiation or ANSI Public Review for the latest announcements of each and instructions on how to participate.
