W. Marriott Hotel in Washington, D. C, during the week of July 14-19, 1985. Forty-five States, the District of Columbia, Puerto Rico, the Virgin Islands, and Guam were represented. The theme of the meeting was "Communication - Key to Progress." Under Chairman Delfino, the theme was emphasized throughout the year including special efforts to coordinate the work of the National Conference on Weights and Measures with the four regional associations, State and local officials, Federal agencies, and industry representatives. As a result of these special efforts, the membership was better informed on the issues and the business of the annual meeting was conducted more effectively. A major action was the adoption of NBS Handbook 133, "Checking the Net Contents of Packaged Goods." Other important actions were taken regarding method of sale, device control, the National Type Evaluation Program, the National Training Program, net weight compliance, and motor fuels. Details are provided in committee summaries on the following pages. Special meetings included those of the Task Force on Commodity Requirements, the Task Force on Motor Fuels, the Task Force on Information Systems, Metrologists' Workshops, the Associate Membership Committee, the Scale Manufacturers Association, the Industry Committee on Packaging and Labeling, the State regional weights and measures associations, and OIML Pilot Secretariat 20 (Prepackaged Products). Reports by the several standing and annual committees of the Conference comprise the major portion of the publication, along with the addresses delivered by Conference officials and other authorities from government and industry. Key words: legal metrology; specifications and tolerances; training; type evaluation; uniform laws and regulations; and weights and measures. Library of Congress Catalog Card Number 26-27766.
