His consents on the projected total expense for the fiscal year compared with the budgeted amounts were: Rsnt: The excess of appro*itnately $140. over the budget was due to the increase in the rate for electricity and taxes, such increases to be proportionately levied on the -tenants as stipulated in the escalation clause of the leas* which expires October Jl, 1971.

Although the number of specifications bulletins released this fiscal year *pprox\iraie the total number released last year, the number of blue prints re quested by the members and especially by Regional Members have greatly increased this cost.

The Chairnan announced that the incoming Fee Formula Committee will review the resent forrule and up-date it so that it conforms to present marketing practices. HISTORICAL SALES REPORTS The meeting was informed that on the reports filed with Warshall Granger* sever al problems had arisen which were unforeseen. In studying the report released for the year 1970, it is apparent that the figures were not being correctly resorted due to a misunderstanding of the word "units0. Unit was meant to indicate a piece and it is belsevec that soma members were reporting a set as a unit whereas the number of oieces in the set constitutes the number of units sold. A conference will be held with the auditors end a clar ification of the termi nology will be prepared. After this has been don, they will be revested to release new instructions to which will be attached another form for reporting the sales for 1970 as well as the form for reporting the first six wonthe of 1971. A revised report for 1970 will then be released. The suggestion that the names of the contributors filing figures be listed on the reports met with approval as ii is impossible to determine any individual member'* figures from the totals released. oafitJPATipNtt- SArTTV AND HEALTH ACT IV. ft. B. fteitie, Business Manager of the industrial Hygiene Engineering Servicer of Johns-^l&nville Environmental Control Syst*s Division spoke on the standards and regulations of the Occupational Safety and Health Act signed into law on December 20tl 1970 effective Jp'** 2Bth 1971. He explained that the Act governs ell envtrctvnenta! conditions in the work place and that standards are currently being set for a strict regulation of Aist, fibre, vapor, fumes,'noise, heat, safety and other in-plant environmental conditions. Since the law governs almost all business establishments in the United States, several thousand inspectors, industrial hygienists and administrative personnel will be needed within the next few years. He recommended that every person, who has produc tion responsibilities, secure and study: 1. A copy of the f*ct - Public Uw ??1-'$96 dated December -29, 197EL To be secured tram the Superintendent of Documents. 2. A copy of the Threshold Limit Value - ACGIK. Published by the American Confer ence of Governmental Hygienists. The cost is $.50 and conies are to be obtained by writing to th Secretary-Treasurer at 1014 Broadway, Cincinnati, Ohio &5202. 3. A copy of the Federal Register of fey 29, 1971 which lists the major portion of the existing standards. This Is obtained from the Superintendent of Documents, Under the Act, an employee may file a complaint of a violation with the union and with the Department of Labor but hi name is never revealed. The complaint go* to the persons appointed by a three man council (which council has been appointed by the President of the United States), who hear such grievances, violations, etc. An inspector issue a citation which must be posted at the site of the violation warning the employees of the hazardous condition. The company Rust reply within fifteen (15; days. If not, it is presumed to b guilty and subject to e fine, it acknowledged, the ctapany may decide to have a hearing Wore the cocraisaion which ha* the right to ' testing Minutes subpoena the recards Tor the Searing.. If no hearing is reauesiec, ine insa?:;?' set z date for the insoeeiior. with the union having the right to have one o- -o's reorsentatives present* The cowpary records R*iSt be available at the tisw *' suQr inspection. The enforcement of the Act is the responsibi1 ity of the Department of tabor and the standards are to be established by a newly formed agency under H.E.b. Wnown as the National Institute of Occupational Safety. The director of this agency is * surgeon who is familiar with both aides of the factors involved*. For the present, th agency is following the standards in use but within two years, these will be revised. However, to aid them in modifying existing standards or establishing new ones, they are approaching the various industries to appoint reoresentetrves to serve voluntarily on some of the cow it tees. Such service is to th# advantage of an industry in that the Government will be aware of the existing problems within an industry and the re sultant standards such that can be met. By 1976, there will be approximately 1,000 inspectors in the field and every plant, within an industry, will have been insoeeied, Vr, heitze answered, in great detail with particular examples, the Questions raised by the members, he was roundly applauded for a most timely and extremely interesting subject and the appreciation of the membership wae expressed by the Chairman. As ali of the members wars interested in securing copies of the three publica tions referred to by Sfr. fteitze, the Institute Office was directed to release a Questionnaire to the membership reouesting the number of copies of each publication reoujred. The bulk order would then be forwarded and upon receipt, the number of cocies ordered by each member would be forwarded. ##> No further business was brought to the attention of the meeting. Uoon motion duly made, seconded end unanineusly passed, it was ft3CtVE3>i To'adjourn the second day's session of the annual membership meeting on June 23rd 1971. Adjourned at 11:00 A. IL H. G.
