The IAQ document is a report of the NEHA/UL IAQ Standards Committee's efforts and deliberations associated with IAQ Standard development and the process that was used to identify and assess the issues. It also provides UL recommendations for a Shared Vision, specific Goals and Objectives, and selected Tasks. Finally, there is a recommendation for the process that can be followed to develop an IAQ Standard.
