ANSI Accredited Standards Committee C63® 2010 Participation Fee Schedule

 

In the course of developing and publishing standards, C63â incurs significant expenses. The largest expenses for C63â are the IEEE editing and Secretariat charges for C63â standards and meeting/balloting activity, respectively. To cover these (and other) costs, C63â charges participation fees for its organizational and individual members.

Further Information and Requirements:

 

Organizational members may have an alternative representative on C63â.  However, the organization member has only one vote at the C63â Main Committee meetings.  The organizational participation fee covers up to five (5) participants affiliated or named by the organizational member in C63â activities, with no additional meeting fees required (unless necessary to cover extraordinary meeting expenses). The total of five includes the organization’s primary representative and the alternate. If these participants are members of Subcommittees or Working Groups, they are then voting members of those committees.  If they are not members of Subcommittees or Working Groups, they are classified as non-voting observers without vote.   The individual C63â member’s fee covers the participation in an unlimited number of C63â Subcommittees, Working Groups and projects. They do not have a vote in these other committee activities unless they have also been accepted as members in those committees.

 

The fee for those who pay the $250.00 fee for observing C63â meetings covers the C63â meeting and all Subcommittee and Working Group meetings that occur as part of any particular C63â multi-day meeting series.  Subcommittee members are allowed to observe the C63â parent meeting as well as any Working Group meetings of their Subcommittee without any fee and without any vote.  The C63â Chair can authorize higher or lower fees for special Working Group meetings.

 

To cover the additional costs of teleconferencing, telephone participation in any meeting requires the payment of the same meeting fee as in-person participants pay. Note that there are no substitutes for members in Subcommittees or Working Groups or for Individual or Emeritus members of C63â as these participants are acting as individual experts.

 

Committee, Subcommittee or Working Group Chairs may sometimes ask invited experts to participate and help with C63â projects and meetings. At the discretion of the Chair inviting such an expert, meeting participation fees for that expert can be waived for that meeting, but no more than two times during the lifetime of aC63â project for any individual.
