buildings, per the above definition,
including but not limited to irrigation
systems, fire suppression systems,
cooling towers, water features and
data centers
Materials used in plumbing systems,
their resistance to corrosion, their
ability to maintain structural integrity,
and their interaction with
contaminants and treatment
chemicals
System operation and maintenance,
and occupant water use
Water quality conditions at point of
entry into the building
Data needed for design and operation,
including water demand assumptions
Models for designing new systems

II. Request for Information
NIST requests information from the
public regarding measurement science
needs that must be addressed to inform
future code revisions, green building
standards, and guidance documents in
ways that enable safe, reliable and
efficient plumbing systems in buildings.
Responses to this RFI will assist NIST
in its execution of a project to
investigate approaches that can reduce
water and energy consumption and
reduce or prevent water quality
problems by informing improvements in
plumbing system design, codes and
standards.
Respondents are encouraged—but are
not required—to respond to each
question and to present their answers
after each question. The following
questions cover the major areas about
which NIST seeks comment.
Respondents may organize their
submissions in response to this RFI in
any manner, and all responses that
comply with the requirements listed in
the DATES and ADDRESSES sections of
this RFI will be considered.
Attachments will be accepted in plain
text, Microsoft Word, or Adobe PDF
formats. Comments sent by any method
other than those specified in this notice,
to any address or individual other than
those specified in this notice, or
received after the end of the comment
period, may not be considered.
Comments containing references,
studies, research, and other empirical
data that are not widely published
should include copies or electronic
links of the referenced materials.
All submissions, including
attachments and other supporting
materials, will become part of the public
record and subject to public disclosure.
NIST reserves the right to publish
comments publicly, unedited and in
their entirety. Sensitive personal
information, such as account numbers

or Social Security numbers, or names of
other individuals, should not be
included. Submissions will not be
edited to remove any identifying or
contact information. Do not submit
confidential business information, or
otherwise sensitive or protected
information. Comments that contain
profanity, vulgarity, threats, or other
inappropriate language or content will
not be considered.
NIST is interested in receiving
information from the stakeholder
community to answer the following
questions:
(1) What are the most important
issues to design and operate safe,
healthy, reliable, and efficient plumbing
systems?;
(2) In the context of the core issues
listed above or any other issues
identified in this notice, what are the
research needs that should be
considered in developing this research
agenda?;
(3) Is there any other information
respondents want to provide regarding
this effort?
Authority: 15 U.S.C. 272(b)(10).

The Gulf
of Mexico, South Atlantic, and
Caribbean Fishery Management
Councils, in conjunction with NOAA
Fisheries and the Atlantic and Gulf
States Marine Fisheries Commissions
have implemented the Southeast Data,
Assessment and Review (SEDAR)
process, a multi-step method for
determining the status of fish stocks in
the Southeast Region. SEDAR is a multistep process including: (1) Data
Workshop, (2) a series of assessment
webinars, and (3) A Review Workshop.
The product of the Data Workshop is a
report that compiles and evaluates
potential datasets and recommends
which datasets are appropriate for
assessment analyses. The assessment
webinars produce a report that describes
the fisheries, evaluates the status of the
stock, estimates biological benchmarks,
projects future population conditions,
and recommends research and
monitoring needs. The product of the
Review Workshop is an Assessment
Summary documenting panel opinions
regarding the strengths and weaknesses
of the stock assessment and input data.
Participants for SEDAR Workshops are
appointed by the Gulf of Mexico, South
Atlantic, and Caribbean Fishery
Management Councils and NOAA
Fisheries Southeast Regional Office,
HMS Management Division, and
Southeast Fisheries Science Center.
Participants include data collectors and
database managers; stock assessment
scientists, biologists, and researchers;
constituency representatives including
fishermen, environmentalists, and
NGO’s; International experts; and staff
of Councils, Commissions, and state and
federal agencies.
1. Using datasets and initial
assessment analysis recommended from
the Data Webinar, panelists will employ
assessment models to evaluate stock
status, estimate population benchmarks
and management criteria, and project
future conditions.
2. Participants will recommend the
most appropriate methods and
configurations for determining stock
