The following standards are currently open for public review and comment. ANSI public review and comment provides an opportunity for stakeholders and the public to review proposed standards and submit feedback before approval. This process helps ensure standards are developed through openness, balance, consensus, and due process.
A call for members (ANS Consensus Bodies) is being issued to invite organizations that may be directly and materially affected by a proposed standard to participate in its development and review process. Participants contribute technical input and help ensure the standard reflects balanced stakeholder representation.
