These meetings bring together government officials and representatives of business, industry, trade associations, and consumer organizations on subjects related to the field of weights and measures technology, administration, and enforcement. The regional weights and measures associations operate Standing Committees to conduct open hearings on new items and for all carryover items from the preceding 2023 Annual Meeting of the National Conference on Weights and Measures (NCWM). The regional meetings provide a forum for the further development of regional consensus for these items and serve as the gateway for moving any new items onto the national agenda of the NCWM. NIST also participates in the regional weights and measures associations providing technical insight and to encourage cooperation between the private sector, federal agencies, and the states in the development of legal metrology requirements.
