6.  Chair\'s Report

    a.  TC 4.7 \'Toward a Strategy \' - They have a Scope and Action
        Plan. This was distributed through the TC mailboxes. Action
        Items are to cut across other TC\'s. The TCs are to work
        together without creating TGs, etc. The Chairman recommended
        drafting a letter response. Suggested coordination of
        subcommittees that handle similar roles and overlapping
        interests. How do we schedule something? Possibly redirect
        meetings.

    b.  Chair\'s Meeting was held Monday morning. Adam Hinge attended,
        as the Chair had a conflict.

    c.  Discussion of a major revision of the Handbook. Need to increase
        communication between handbook chapter meetings for feedback. A
        new communications subcommittee is to look at the handbook. The
        Handbook is now being published on CDs and could be updated
        continuously. It is still proposed that the formal update
        continue to be on a 4-year cycle.

    d.  A new contract for website management has been awarded and has
        been posted.

    e.  There is a database for frequently asked questions.
        Approximately 6 of the questions relate to TC 9.6 subjects.
        Answers in the database are sufficient to answer queries. If
        90.1 want to elaborate they will have to submit these replies.
        The TC does not have the resources to do the members work on
        these questions.

    f.  ASHRAE funding is tight for research projects.

    g.  Publications and IEA are looking for new sources of revenue.

    h.  Still trying to determine who are the cognizant TCs for
        Standards. TCs can sign up for lists of current actions.

    i.  Program - Looking for better submittals of presentations.
        Request that these be done electronically. Cincinnati meeting
        submittals were 50%, Atlantic City at 80%. Submittals for
        Honolulu are due Feb 2002 and Chicago are due in Aug 2002.

    j.  There will be a meeting room shortage in Honolulu. Request TCs
        determine their needs quickly. A show of hands indicated that at
        least 7 voting members would attend and 2 maybe. Therefore TC
        9.6 will be meeting and need a room. Chair will make this
        request.

    k.  The NJ chapter apologized for the meeting accommodations here at
        Atlantic City.

7.  Sub-committee Reports --

    a.  Webmaster

        i.  The Webmaster\'s report is included as Attachment D.

        ii. The TC 9.6 scope was originally approved Feb 2000. If ASHRAE
            approves the new scope then the websites can be updated..
            Revised scope was handed out. It was moved by Sonderegger
            and seconded by Hinge to reaffirm the TC 9.6 scope, which
            had previously been voted. The Motion passed 10-0-0. The
            Chair not voting.

        iii. The website is active for the Atlanta program files.

    b.  Membership -- Cedric Trueman\
        Hinge and Trueman have updated the roster.

        i.  Adam Hinge has agreed to be the next chairman.

        ii. Michael Martin has agreed to be the next vice chairman.

        iii. Bob Chase has agreed to be the next secretary.

        iv. There is not report from Bob Fuller

        v.  Need to ask for international member to participate.

        vi. Need to have more interest from the user sector.

    c.  Research -- Bill Mixon

        i.  Meeting minutes are included as Attachment E.

        ii. The Research sub-committee met with the Energy Management
            and Performance Monitoring subcommittee. It is difficult to
            avoid overlap.

        iii. Research project funding is tight. It appears that 6
             projects will be funded out of 12 plus to be considered.

        iv. Approximately 100 projects are currently being funded.

        v.  ASHRAE is stressing to have projects, which are clearly
            understood. Practical working tools and literature research
            are being limited.

        vi. RTARs need to be submitted by May. Requesting to have a
            letter ballot. Will need to have a 45-day review (Mar 02)..
            Third RTAR was defeated. There were 'no' votes to be
            resolved.

        vii. A motion was made by Mixon and seconded by Spielvogel to
             approve the current RTARs as presented in the report with
             the sub-committee recommendations. Vote was unanimous.

    d.  Program -- Mark Case

        i.  There was one forum and one Seminar presented here at
            Atlantic City.

        ii. Forum summary - Larry Spielvogal reported that attendance
            was poor. His report is included as Attachment F.

        iii. It was suggested that 9.6 should work with 1.9 on the
             seminar \'Understanding Utility Tariffs\'.

        iv. The proposed TC 9.6 Programs for future meetings is included
            as Attachment G.

        v.  A motion was made by Hinge and seconded by Wilson to accept
            the report for proposed programs. The vote was unanimous.

    e.  Handbook -- Adam Hinge

        i.  Chapter 39(C-2) - The subcommittee voted on the survey form
            from the Handbook Committee.

        ii. A motion was made by Spielvogel and seconded by Hinge to
            approve the publication of Chapter 39 -- Building
            Monitoring. The motion passed 10-0-0, Chairman not voting.
            The TC went on record commending Mike MacDonald for doing a
            great job updating the Chapter.

        iii. Chapter 34 -- Energy Use and Management -- There were many
             editorial comments and one substantial issue. The major
             concern related to telling the readers what not to do or
             what works better than what to do based on experience. The
             updated data is four years old and will be changed as soon
             as new data become available prior to publishing the
             Chapter. It was suggested to get a 2-page draft from BOMA.
             It was agreed to postpone the vote on the Chapter until the
             next meeting. Hinge would like to get changes as soon as
             possible in order to meet the deadline. Any new material
             should be submitted by mid-March.

    f.  Standards -- Cedric Trueman chaired the sub-committee

        i.  Meeting notes were distributed and included as Attachment H.

        ii. Suggested that proposed drafts be circulated to the
            membership.

        iii. Standard 105 needs to be revised. Consider DOE databases,
             which are straightforward. Subcommittee will consider other
             inputs to substitute for section containing requirements
             that have not real world context.

        iv. A motion was made by Trueman and seconded by Spielvogel to
            approve the committee report. Voted unanimously.

    g.  Monitoring and Energy Performance -- Mike MacDonald

**Webmaster Report**

TC 9.6, ASHRAE 2002 Winter Meeting

Atlantic City, January 15, 2002

5.  The ASHRAE website continues to show the old TC Scope, and for now
    the TC website also shows this old scope. Once ASHRAE approves the
    new scope, the websites can be updated. Need to know the status of
    this approval.

6.  Dallas Seminar 29 presentation files remain one of the main
    attractions for the site, although there have been lots of hits on
    the Tech program PDF for Atlantic City since it was added.

7.  Subcommittee chairs have remained nonparticipants for the site, and
    especially the Research portion could probably use some material,
    but Standards may also want to add / revise material.

8.  Additional "News" items that are considered worthy for the TC to
    post should be identified.

9.  The "Links" portion of the website was removed as indicated would be
    done.

10. Traffic to site increasing: annualized rate in the range of 2000 or
    slightly more "entities," with again about half (or maybe more) of
    the entities appearing to be search engines.

MINUTES

TC 9.6 Research Subcommittee

Atlantic City, NJ

Monday, January 14, 2002, 5:30 - 6:30 pm

Bill Mixon, Chair

Research topics were discussed during the Energy Management Subcommittee
meeting held at 4:00- 5:30 PM on January 14, and the Research
Subcommittee joined the Performance Monitoring Subcommittee for a joint
meeting. The scheduled meetings of Performance Monitoring and Research
at the same time in different rooms, prevented productive meetings of
either subcommittee. The joint meeting was called to order by Mike
MacDonald, Performance Monitoring Subcommittee Chair, and the attendance
list is with minutes of that subcommittee.

Research business is reported below according to the agenda outline.

1.  Announcements. Information from the meeting of Research Subcommittee
    Chairs was presented and discussed. This included the reduced
    finances for research which only provides for 6 new projects and the
    emphasis on practical projects with immediate, easily understood,
    and quantifiable benefits to the ASHRAE membership. For
    consideration at the RAC Summer 2002 meeting, new or revised work
    statements are due by 15 May. 2002 and RTARS by 1 August 2002.

2.  RP 827, Methodology Development to Measure In-Situ Chiller, Fan, &
    Pump Performance. The value of the project and performance of the
    principal investigators was discussed to complete the "Project
    Monitor Evaluation of PI's" form for the RAC. They were given an
    excellent rating.

3.  Work Statement for RTAR#1, "Benchmarking of Building Energy
    Performance Rating Systems". The RTAR and a draft WS written by Mike
    MacDonald were previously approved by TC 9.6 and given priority #1,
    and TC 9.1 was suggested as a co-sponsor. ASHRAE accepted the
    project RTAR as #1 in the ASHRAE 2001-2002 Research Plan. Ken
    Gillespie agreed to develop the final WS for submission to ASHRAE,
    which will require an electronic ballot to meet the 15 May deadline.
    The RTAR will be distributed to voting and corresponding members by
    15 March 2002. All negative votes will be redistributed to voting
    members.

4.  Work Statement for RTAR #2, "Design Specifications for Performance
    Monitoring of New Buildings and their End-Uses", Ken Gillespie &
    Hashem Akbari. The RTAR was previously approved by TC 9.6 and given
    priority #2. A draft WS needs to be developed, but it was agreed to
    concentrate on the WS for Item 3, above, and to leave this RTAR with
    the same priority.

5.  RTAR #3, "Development of Tools to Mine Building Data for Energy
    Efficiency Opportunities", Ken Gillespie. This RTAR was not approved
    (8 yes, 2 no, 0 abstain) by previous electronic ballot. The
    Subcommittee recommended leaving it as Priority #3 so adverse
    comments can be identified and resolved.

6.  1092-WS Status, Procedures to Determine In-Sim Performance of Common
    HVAC Systems, Ken Gillespie. Returned, revised, and under
    consideration at this meeting. Thanks to Ken Gillespie for the quick
    response needed to meet RAC deadlines.

7.  New RTARs. No new research topics were identified.

8.  TC 9.6 Research Plan. A new research plan should be submitted by 1
    Aug 2002, which will require an electronic ballot. Bill Mixon will
    draft the plan with input from other Subcommittee Chairs and
    distribute to voting and corresponding members of TC 9.6. This
    information will be sent out in advance so that it can be voted on
    at the Hawaii meeting.

9.  Actions for TC 9.6. Need approval for electronic ballots on Items #3
    and #8, above.

FINAL REPORT ON ASHRAE TC 9.6 FORUM

LOCAL EXPERIENCE WITH DEREGULATION

Moderator- L. G. Spielvogel, P. E.

Atlantic City - January 15, 2002

The Forum was attended by about 20 people, and continued until we were
evicted from the room. The evaluations were uniformly favorable, and
most rated it excellent. Most every evaluation question was answered
yes. One reason for these ratings was the unbiased approach to the
subject, without favoring or discussing any products or concepts that
are now being advocated with deregulation.

The evaluations also indicated a desire for two hour forum, and a strong
desire to see this subject

addressed in future seminars and symposia. There was some support for
state by state

presentations, due to the differences that exist.

Other suggestions included:

This is a political issue that is being subjected to numerous diverse
interests

Did not address needs of huge customers

We need a glossary of terms and definitions by State

The ASHRAE journal is always asking us to prepare articles that match
their themes. Yet, they never seem to ask us to prepare information that
the members want to have. Maybe, some day, they will publish what the
members want. When that happens, we will be ready.

Therefore, it is recommended that this subject be put on the agenda for
the next TC meeting with a view toward developing programs and
publications that will serve the needs of the members.

People from TC 1.9 said they would propose a seminar on this subject for
Honolulu, to educate the members on utility rates and contracts.

TC 9.6 Standards Subcommittee

Atlantic City, NJ

Crown V, Sheraton Hotel

Monday, January 14, 2002, 4:30 - 5:30 pm

1.  [Chair]{.underline}

The Standards sub-committee chair, and his backup, were both unable to
come to Atlantic City. TC 9.6 Chair Cedirc Trueman chaired the meeting.

2.  [Attendance]{.underline}: \[ instead of attendance list: Committee
    members Trueman, Case, MacDonald, Gillespie, and Akbari attended \]

3.  [TCLS Survey]{.underline}

The Technical Committee Subcommittee (TCLS) is surveying TC's to
determine which ASHRAE Standards are being used or referenced in
building codes. TC 9.6 is th cognizant TC for 3 standards and 2
suidelines. Attendees at the meeting contributed the following
information

a.  Standard 90.1

    i.  referenced in US Federal legislation (EPACT)

    ii. wide referencing in state energy codes

    iii. used as a reference point from which code jurisdictions have
         drived energy code requirements

    iv. referenced as a benchmark: for state buildings in several
        states, and in various certification programs (e.g., LEED and
        the C2000 program in Canada)

b.  Standard 90.2

    i.  very limited use

    ii. could have been used as a reference point for code development
        in a few jurisdictions

c.  Standard 100

    i.  not aware of any code referencing

d.  Guideline 14

    i.  has just been approved for publication

e.  Guideline 18P

    i.  not published; is at/near public review draft stage

```{=html}
<!-- -->
```
4.  The meeting discussed a number of standards-related proposals raised
    by Michael MacDonald.

    a.  Proposal to develop a standard method for rating the energy
        performance designs of commercial buildings

        i.  There is every indication there will be an increasing use of
            ASHRAE 90.1 as a benchmark against which the energy
            performance of building designs is compared. Various
            organizations external to ASHRAE are already doing this. A
            problem is that there is often no specific set of rules set
            out to guide how the energy performance values are to be
            determined.

        ii. Therefore, a standard that will provide a method by which
            such evaluations and comparisons can be carried out with
            consistent, and reasonably accurate, results is badly
            needed.

        iii. [Information for TC 9.6]{.underline}\
             The Standards sub-committee agreed to develop a draft Title
             / Purpose / Scope for such a proposed standard. Mark Case
             will lead a Task Group of the sub-committee to do so. The
             results will come to a future TC 9.6 meeting for review and
             action.

    b.  Suggestion to drastically simplify Standard 90.1

        i.  Standard 90.1 is a significant improvement on 90.1-1989 with
            respect to ease of use. The sub-committee agreed that
            further simplification to improve clarity and ease of use is
            desirable. This is particularly important for small
            buildings. Isolating requirements for small buildings into a
            separate standard, a separately published document, or a
            separate (and clearly identified) section or chapter within
            the main standard is suggested.

        ii. [Requested TC 9.6 Action]{.underline}\
            That TC 9.6 support the preceding thoughts and direct the TC
            9.6 Liaison to SSPC 90.1 to present them to the SSPC meeting
            in Honolulu in June.

    c.  Proposal to either revise of replace Standard 105

        i.  A recent analysis suggests that the statistical requirements
            in the standard use inappropriate parameters for evaluating
            data bases of building energy performance. In addition, the
            standard contains a section on data base requirements that,
            to our knowledge, has never been used in the real world.

        ii. [Information for TC 9.6]{.underline}\
            Standard 105 will not come up for re-affirmation or revision
            for another 2 to 3 years. The standards sub-committee agreed
            to study this issue further with a view to presenting
            recommendation for standards sub-committee action to a
            future TC 9.6 meeting. Michael MacDonald will lead a Task
            Group of the sub-committee to do this. Input from TC 9.6 and
            elsewhere is requested.

5.  The meeting adjourned at 5:30pm
