The TAPPI Standards regulations require public review of standards that are up for ballot. Send a message to standards@tappi.org if you want to request a copy of draft in ballot.

Listed below are TAPPI Standards that have recently gone out for ballot to the corresponding Standard-Specific Interest Group (SSIG). The date in parentheses is the closing date for voting.

CORRECTION:
Last month, T 840 was listed as being balloted for withdrawal. However, the wrong title was listed for T 840. T 840 is "Testing adhesives used in glued lap joints of corrugated fiberboard containers." It is in ballot for withdrawal, and the ballot is due September 26, 2014.
