The International Association of Plumbing and Mechanical Officials (IAPMO®) is seeking volunteers with technical background in plumbing and mechanical systems — such as jurisdictional authorities, testing lab and educational facility representatives, as well as manufacturing experts — to participate on the IAPMO Z1390 technical subcommittee (TSC). A new standard, Z1390 for adult changing stations, will be developed by this TSC.
