Item #

Person Responsible

The paper is needed for two reasons: 1) to direct AOAC process and procedures now 2) to provide Eric with a paper to present to CCMAS Report from BOD by Norma Hill The BOD is pleased with the amount and quality of work from the statistics committee. The statistics workshops at the annual meeting are valued and appreciated. Eric Koningsis concerned that the statistics approaches be in a format that can be presented to CCMAS. The BOD would like a monograph with specific, concrete directions. Also, supported by the statistical language. Norma mentioned the report on Options for Determining Reproducibility. These are needed by February 13 so they are ready for the meeting Feb. 23 to 27. The CCMAS requires that document be distributed before the meeting. There is an interagency meeting before CCMAS at which Eric may want to present the paper. If Paul is there, he may have to speak to the paper. Paul does not know if he will attend the meeting yet. Norma has written a summary of theOptions for Determining Reproducibility using Robert’s papers as references. Robert’s paper needs to be added as an appendix to the summary. Robert emphasized that the Incremental Collaborative Study is the same as an interlab study, only better. For example with the incremental study, PT is a special case, the Incremental study fills the PT requirement. So the Incremental study should be moved before the PT study in the report. Jan. 6? there is an OMB call, but the paper does not have to go through the editing/changes from OMB. It could be presented to them for their information.
