By now, all of our members and guests have received an invite
to attend the show along with information on attending the two
seminars that Ovi Muresan, VP Technical has put together. If
you have your CPD and need to get more CEU’s then this is
your chance. Just sign up for the seminars. Remember that
you must have your recertification in by the end of April.
If you plan on taking the CPD exam registration closed March
11th. However, the exam will be held at testing sites across
the country on March 31st and April 1st. The CPDT exam will
be held at testing sites across the country on October 6th and
7th. You can go to aspe.org/CPDT to get more information on
this exam.
I am looking forward to seeing all of you at the show for fun,
games, food, drink, entertainment. This is a great opportunity
for you to gather knowledge from the products you will see
from our vendor’s booths.

President
March 22nd is the day of The Atlanta Chapter Product
Show at the Crowne Plaza Ravinia. This is going to be a
bigger show than last year, with more prizes and more
interesting produces to see. There will also be a Putting
Green for those that are golfers and those that are not,
so come by the ASPE Booth and show what you can do.
The rules will be posted and there will be prizes given

Green, there will also be other prizes to win. You can win
additional prizes by visiting at least 30 booths which will
give you a chance to win three cash prizes of $250, $500
and $1000, but you must be present to win. You must

History
The International Code Council (ICC) was established in 1994 as
a non-profit organization dedicated to developing a single set of
comprehensive and coordinated national model construction
codes. The founders of the ICC are Building Officials and Code
Administrators International, Inc. (BOCA), International
Conference of Building Officials (ICBO), and Southern Building
Code Congress International, Inc. (SBCCI). Since the early part
of the last century, these non-profit organizations developed
three separate sets of model codes used throughout the United
States. Although regional code development has been effective
and responsive to our country’s needs, the time came for a single
set of codes. The nation’s three model code groups responded
by creating the International Code Council and by developing
codes without regional limitations; the International Codes.
Code Development
ICC develops construction and public safety codes through
the governmental consensus process. This system of code
development has provided the citizens of the U.S. the highest
level of safety in the world for more than 80 years. The ICC
governmental consensus process meets the principles
defined by the National Standards Strategy of 2000; OMB
Circular A-119, Federal Participation in the Development and
Use of Voluntary Consensus Standards and in Conformity
Assessment Activities (1998). It complies with Public Law
104-113 National Technology Transfer and Advancement Act
of 1995.
In the 2015-2018 Code Cycle, ICC has fully implemented the
cdpACCESS online code development portal for all those
interested in participating in the code development process.
For more information on cdpACCESS and how to submit and
comment on code change proposals, collaborate with peers
and to vote, please visit the cdpACCESS.com.
Ever wonder how the International Codes were
developed and how to comment on these codes. The
following was taken from the International Code Council
(ICC) web page www.iccsafe.org.

Mixing Water Just Got Smarter
The new IntelliStation provides a smarter, safer way to deliver mixed water throughout a commercial and institutional facility. The digital water mixing and recirculation solution from Powers can be integrated into a building automation system (BAS) to allow facility managers complete control of their domestic hot water delivery. The IntelliStation is designed for use in buildings such as hospitals and nursing homes; college, university, and school buildings; multi-family residences; offices; correctional facilities; and military buildings. A high-speed electronically actuated valve allows digital water temperature control to +/-2oF, providing more precision than competitive systems. Another unique feature is the IntelliStation's field programmability. Installation does not require factory preprogramming or the use of a laptop and special software.
