The Laser Institute of America is revising its standard LIA Z136.8 Standard for Safe Use of Lasers in Research, Development, or Testing. This standard provides recommendations for the safe use of lasers and laser systems that operate at wavelengths between 180 nm and 1 mm and are used to conduct research or used in a research, development, or testing environment. This environment is not limited to universities and national laboratories, but includes medical research facilities and high-tech product development and evaluation settings.
Comments are due September 2nd.
You may obtain an electronic copy from: https://www.lia.org/store/product/z1368-safe-use-lasers-research-development-or-testing-draft-publicreview. Order from: Liliana Caldero, (407) 380-1553, [email protected]. Send comments to Liliana with an optional copy to [email protected].
The LIA standards catalog is linked below:
Note that LIA does not yet have a dedicated landing page for standards development but instead uses ANSI Standards Action to announce public commenting opportunities. We draw them out to get the opportunity known to the education facility industry.
Medical University of Graz
We are happy to discuss this commenting opportunity with anyone ahead of the deadline any day at 11 AM Eastern Time. We also host a monthly Risk Management teleconference in which many safety standards are on the standing agenda; the LIA suite among them. See our CALENDAR for the next online meeting.

#DidYouKnow lasers didn’t just win the Nobel prize in 2018.
In 2017, that award went to team leaders at the Laser Interferometer Gravitational-wave Observatory (LIGO), who were first to measure long-predicted ripples in space-time.

Lighting Office Spaces
IES (Illuminating Engineering Society)
BSR/IES RP-1-201x, Recommended Practice: Lighting Office Spaces (revision of ANSI/IES RP-1-2013)
For many people, the office is the environment where they spend the majority of their waking adult lives. The expectation is that the
time spent in the office will be useful and productive, and that the physical environment will be healthy. The design of the office greatly
influences how well the space meets the needs of the workers and their organization. Lighting is a critical element of the design that
may enhance or degrade the work experience and affect the well-being of the workers. Beyond supporting worker performance,
lighting may also affect the bottom line of the organization by making the best use possible of materials and electricity.

Standards Alaska
University of Alaska Fairbanks
As we explain in our ABOUT, we are continuing the development of the cadre of “code writers and vote-getters” begun at the University of Michigan in 1993. We are now drilling down into state and local adaptations of nationally developed codes and standards that are incorporated by reference into public safety and sustainability legislation.
Standards Michigan will remain the “free” home site but state-specific sites such as Standards Alaska will be accessible to user-interest code-writers and vote-getters. Please send [email protected] a request to join one of our mailing lists appropriate to your interest for #SmartCampus standards action in the State of Alaska.
