Notice of U.S. National Work Group 

Meeting for Hydrogen Measurement 

Standards 

AGENCY: National Institute of Standards 

and Technology, Commerce. 

ACTION: Notice of a meeting for the U.S. 

National Work Group for Hydrogen 

Measurement Standards, October 2007. 

SUMMARY: The National Institute of 

Standards and Technology (NIST), 

Technology Services, Weights and 

Measures Division (WMD) announces 

plans to hold a U.S. National Work 

Group Meeting (USNWG) for the 

development of hydrogen measurement 

standards for commercial equipment on 

October 3–4, 2007, from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. 

DATES: October 3, 2007, to October 4, 

2007. 

Meeting Location and Registration: 

The USNWG Meeting will be held at 

NIST, 100 Bureau Drive, Gaithersburg, 

Maryland 20899. The Wednesday, 

October 3, meeting will be held in 

Building 101, Lecture Room B, and the 

Thursday, October 4, meeting in 

Building 101, Lecture Room A. Those 

unable to attend in person may 

participate via teleconference; please 

contact WMD for details. Written 

comments from stakeholders unable to 

attend or participate in these meeting 

dates must be received by Friday, 

September 28, 2007 and sent to the 

attention of Ms. Juana Williams. On-line 

registration at http://www.nist.gov/ 

public_affairs/confpage/conflist.htm 

closes Wednesday, September 26, 2007; 

after this date, contact Ms. Angela Ellis, 

NIST Conference Facilities, at 301–975–

3881. 

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: As part of 

the NIST WMD mandate to ‘‘fix the 

standard of weights and measures’’ its 

staff and the USNWG will meet for the 

first in-person (and via audio 

conference) meeting to promote the 

development of legal metrology 

standards to facilitate the United States 

transition to a hydrogen economy. 

USNWG participants are technical 

experts working on existing related 

international and national standards 

activities, motor-fuel dispenser and 

component manufacturers and 

associated service industry, suppliers of 

motor-fuel products such as hydrogen, 

service station installers and operators, 

alternative fuel vehicle manufacturers, 

or regulatory officials enforcing legal 

controls over commercial devices. 

Establishment of these standards will 

ensure the selection and use of suitable, 

approved, and properly maintained 

equipment that provides accurate 

hydrogen measurement and sufficient 

valid transaction information to the 

buyer and seller. Historically, these 

standards are adopted by the states as 

the basis of uniform requirements used 

to regulate weighing and measuring 

devices and commodities sold on the 

basis of weight, measure, or count. The 

goal of NIST and the USNWG is to 

establish commercial hydrogen 

measurement standards that encompass: 

(1) Device and related equipment codes, 

(2) method of sale requirements, (3) 

labeling requirements, (4) quality 

standards, (5) sampling procedures, (6) 

inspection procedures, (7) test 

equipment, and (8) safety practices. 

These standards and related documents 

will be the basis for day-to-day 

commercial operations, training weights 

and measures regulatory officials and 

service companies, and educating 

consumers about hydrogen 

measurement. 

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: 

Juana Williams by mail at NIST, 

Weights and Measures Division, 100

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The 

MBNMS Advisory Council was 

established in March 1994 to assure 

continued public participation in the 

management of the Sanctuary. Since its 

establishment, the Advisory Council has 

played a vital role in decisions affecting 

the Sanctuary along the central 

California coast. 

The Advisory Council’s twenty voting 

members represent a variety of local 

user groups, as well as the general 

public, plus seven local, state and 

federal governmental jurisdictions. In 

addition, the respective managers or 

superintendents for the four California 

National Marine Sanctuaries (Channel 

Islands National Marine Sanctuary, 

Cordell Bank National Marine 

Sanctuary, Gulf of the Farallones 

National Marine Sanctuary and the 

Monterey Bay National Marine 

Sanctuary) and the Elkhorn Slough 

National Estuarine Research Reserve sit 

as non-voting members. 

Four working groups support the 

Advisory Council: The Research 

Activity Panel (‘‘RAP’’) chaired by the 

Research Representative, the Sanctuary 

Education Panel (‘‘SEP’’) chaired by the 

Education Representative, the 

Conservation Working Group (‘‘CWG’’) 

chaired by the Conservation 

Representative, and the Business and 

Tourism Activity Panel (‘‘BTAP’’) 

chaired by the Business/Industry 

Representative, each dealing with 

matters concerning research, education, 

conservation and human use. The 

working groups are composed of experts 

from the appropriate fields of interest 

and meet monthly, or bi-monthly, 

serving as invaluable advisors to the 

Advisory Council and the Sanctuary 

Superintendent. 

The Advisory Council represents the 

coordination link between the 

Sanctuary and the state and federal 

management agencies, user groups, 

researchers, educators, policy makers, 

and other various groups that help to 

focus efforts and attention on the central 

California coastal and marine 

ecosystems. 

The Advisory Council functions in an 

advisory capacity to the Sanctuary 

Superintendent and is instrumental in 

helping develop policies, program goals, 

and identify education, outreach, 

research, long-term monitoring, resource 

protection, and revenue enhancement 

priorities. The Advisory Council works 

in concert with the Sanctuary 

Superintendent by keeping him or her 

informed about issues of concern 

throughout the Sanctuary, offering 

recommendations on specific issues, 

and aiding the Superintendent in 

achieving the goals of the Sanctuary 

program within the context of 

California’s marine programs and 

policies.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

The Convention and the Commission 

The objective of the Convention is to 

ensure, through effective management, 

the long-term conservation and 

sustainable use of highly migratory fish 

stocks in the western and central Pacific 

Ocean in accordance with the United 

Nations Convention on the Law of the 

Sea of 1982 (UNCLOS) and the 

Agreement for the Implementation of 

the Provisions of the UNCLOS Relating 

to the Conservation and Management of 

Straddling Fish Stocks and Highly 

Migratory Fish Stocks. The Convention 

establishes the Commission, the 

secretariat of which is based in Pohnpei, 

Federated States of Micronesia. 

The Convention applies to all highly 

migratory fish stocks (defined as all fish 

stocks of the species listed in Annex I 

of the UNCLOS occurring in the 

Convention Area, and such other 

species of fish as the Commission may 

determine), except sauries. 

The United States played a very active 

role in supporting the negotiations and 

the development of the Convention and 

signed the Convention when it was 

opened for signature in 2000. It has 

participated as a cooperating nonmember in the Commission since it 

became operational in 2005. Upon 

completion of the Convention 

ratification process, which will occur 

July 27, 2007, the United States will 

become a Contracting Party to the 

Convention and a full member of the 

Commission. Under the Act, the United 

States will be represented on the 

Commission by five United States
