Dear All,
My apologies. I should have given you the direct addy for the U.S. TBT
Inquiry Point to send comments. Anne Meininger is typically the one that
submits the comments, but she is out of the office today and tomorrow (as
you will find out if you send them to her) - and comments are due by this
Sat., July 21.
If you can get comments finished by COB tomorrow, you should send them
directly to: [log in to unmask]
Pat Harris is covering for Anne and should have access to them, but just
in case, please also copy her at: [log in to unmask]
If you CAN'T get them in by tomorrow, but still wish to comment by the
Sat. deadline, please email the Korean contact and copy the Notify U.S.
address:
Joongang-dong: [log in to unmask]
Sorry for the confusion.

send it to you again directly.

Korea RoHS Deadline for TBT Comments: July 21, 2007
Dear All,
I just wanted to remind you that comments to Korea's RoHS-like regulation
via the TBT process is due this coming July 21. I strongly recommend
commenting on it. I've attached the notification, but recommend signing
up (if you aren't already) to DOC/NIST's Notify U.S. and sending your
comments through the U.S. Inquiry Point (Anne Meininger:
[log in to unmask]). This will allow the USG to know what your main
concerns are so that we can try to address them bilaterally and
multilaterally and often makes it more likely that foreign governments
will respond to them.
To sign up to Notify U.S. and view this and other notification, please
visit: www.nist.gov/notifyus
Per my earlier email below, the English translation of the regulation can
be found at:
http://www.kece.eu/data/Korea_RoHS_ELV_April_2007_EcoFrontier.pdf
The Enforcement Ordinance is fairly detailed and lengthy. If I can get an
English translation in the next day or two, I will forward.
Best,
Jon
