CO remarks: 2014-11-26: IEV 192-01-08 already presents the concept identical to 904-01-05, also the source references are identical. No reason to delete 904-01-05, as the concept would still remain in the IEV. In 351-42-33, the term “process” appears as second term after “process in control technology”. It is obvious that there “process” refers also to process in control technology. WG100 is asked to consider revision/withdrawal of 113-01-06. JGO 2015-09-22: Revised through CR C000017. Addition of specific use: <in environmental standardization>. JGO
