Committee charter

A college-wide Sustainability Committee, chartered by faculty, staff and students, was also championed and initially organized by members of the class. One of the committee s first major accomplishments was the implementation of a major sustainability initiative on campus, which was the direct result of a student... 

The NFSC is chartered by and directly responsible to the Vice President with line responsibility for the TA-V nuclear fecilities, the Energy, Information, and Infrastructure Technology Division. The NFSC acts in an advisory capacity to the line director responsible for the nuclear facilities. The subordinate facility safety committees (e.g. RCSC) are authorized to make recommendations to line management regarding the safety of matters that satisfy general criteria that have been reviewed by the NFSC and are delineated in the subordinate safety committee charter. 

The RCSC is the basic internal safety review committee for HCF activities, providing an independent safety review of proposed activities and facility modifications. The committee acts in a advisory capacity to line management, and conducts reviews as set forth in an operational committee charter approved by the SNL Depufy Director, Nudear Facility Operations. The RCSC ensures HCF operations are based on sound engineering prindples and are maintained within the approved Technical Safety Requirements (TSRs). 

In order to develop a committee or team charter effectively, a series of questions need to be answered to assess as many aspects of the committee/team s potential duties, accountabilities, and authority as possible. These questions are answered prior to the initial meeting formalizing or revitalizing the safety committee. The questions develop the basic content for the safety committee charter. 

We have read and understand the safety committee s charter. We understand om roles and responsibilities and have come to an agreement with the leadership team on the opportunity be addressed, the actions to be taken, and the Umitations of the safety committee. If at any time it becomes apparent that the safety committee charter needs to be modified, we will consult the leadership team and come to an agreement on the modifications. 

A JHA committee charter is the document that provides the reasons, authority, and guidance for the establishment of the committee. 

A JHA committee charter is the document that provides the reasons, authority, and guidance for the establishment of the committee. A charter is a living document that should be periodically amended as conditions warrant. Its core purpose and structure should be kept as permanent as possible. 

This book is written as the book one wants to read when first starting the study of filtration. This book is intended for the person who has some technical background outside of filtration, and who now wants to "get his feet wet" in this subject This book is also for the "old filtration hand" who, while he has some experience in some special field of filtration, may now want to step back and see a larger view. And it is intended as a vehicle for sorting out and explaining words and phrases that appear in technical and advertising literature. The incentive to write this book comes from the author s experience, as a charter member of ASTM s Committee F21 on Filtration, as chair of the subcommittee on liquid filtration (for 15 years), and as an instigator of the 1986 symposium on filtration sponsored by ASTM. 

If your company has established a formal product stewardship or other major intracompany program, a charter designating a work group, committee, or task force may have been developed that you can use as a model... 

SAE has established a Fuel Cells Standard Forum that is chartered with the establishment of standards and test procedures for fuel cell powered vehicles. The committee was established in 1999. The standards will cover the safety, performance, reliability and recyclability of fuel cell systems in vehicles with emphasis on efficiency and environmental impact. The standards will also establish test procedures for uniformity in test results for the vehicle/systems/components performance, and define interface requirements of the systems to the vehicle. Task Groups have been formed in the areas of safety, performance, reliability, emissions, recyclability, interface and miscellaneous. 

Before a trial starts, a charter needs to be written and agreed upon by the trial sponsor and the committee. This charter describes the structure and operation of the committee and specifies its activities and responsibilities. The DMC should have access to fully unblinded data, with actual treatments and not just codes available for its review. Except in certain limited circumstances, trial integrity is best protected when interim data comparing treatment groups are seen only by the DMC members and statisticians preparing the interim report (Ellenberg et al., 2003, see also O Neill, 2006).

DOE Hydrogen Program Systems Integrations Charter (draft), presentation to committee (partial), June 15, 2003. 

AIChE created the Center for Chemical Process Safety (CCPS) in 1985 after the chemical disasters in Mexico City, Mexico, and Bhopal, India. The CCPS is chartered to develop and disseminate technical information for use in the prevention of major chemical accidents. The center is supported by more than 100 chemical process industry sponsors that provide the necessary funding and professional guidance to its technical committees. The major product of CCPS activities has been a series of guidelines to assist those implementing various elements of a process safety and risk management system. This book is part of that series. 

The committee notes that the CBIRF charter specifically calls for a capability to provide incident response and consequence management training to the other Services. The only instance of which the committee is aware in which the Navy availed itself of this training was by the Commander, Fifth Fleet. It is recommended that the Commander, Fleet Forces Command, direct the utilization of this valuable resource, particularly for or by shore establishments. 

The committee observes that the JTF/CS, CSTs, and CBIRF contain complementary capabilities and that they are chartered to support different missions. From all three, the Navy can learn much to improve its own preparedness. In CONUS, Navy installations should assess whether naval units will be needed in addition to the expanded set of National Guard CSTs for adequate responsiveness to naval needs and/or to provide backup in case of multiple attacks. For Navy and Marine Corps units and installations overseas,... 

These special directions added to the original terms of reference broadened the scope of the study to include not just deep-ocean and littoral operations but also any credible part of naval operations at risk for terrorist attacks. Although this study was initiated after September 11, 2001, it should be noted that the committee did not expand its charter to consider the roles for the Navy in homeland defense, with the exception of the ties of its continental United States (CONUS) force protection mission requirements in relation to U.S. naval bases neighboring civilian communities.
