In light of COVID-19 (novel coronavirus) and ongoing safety concerns for members and staff, ASTM International announced that all previously scheduled in-person Junestandards development meetings (including independent meetings) have been canceled.
Last month, ASTM International announced the cancellation of all May in-person meetings.
These decisions were based on several factors, including, but not limited to:
- Continued review of information and recommendations from the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), the World Health Organization (WHO), and other governmental bodies;
- Input from ASTM International members whose organizations are increasingly concerned with travel;
- Specific information on the projected city restrictions in Boston and Washington, D.C., with input from the hotels.
ASTM International staff will be contacting committee leaders to plan alternatives for conducting committee business.
