SPECIFICATIONS

Activities involving materials, research, and new products are administered by the Bureau of Materials and Physical Research (BMPR). Administration of these activities requires BMPR to develop new specifications or revise existing Department specifications. Since these activities are under development or are being evaluated, the specifications do not have a wide distribution. In addition, these specifications are a working document and have not been adopted as a statewide standard.

For a copy of the specification, to obtain information, or provide comments, please phone or e-mail the contact person. If you are unable to reach the contact person directly, please call 217/782-7200 for assistance.
