To review, visit: http://tiny.cc/4p9f1w NCWM The National Conference on Weights & Measures (NCWM) was held in Louisville, KY in July. During the bag-on-valve (BOV) meeting, a manufacturer provided a presentation and proposed changes to the Laws & Regulation (L&R) committee. The proposal was to add the wording “nonaerosol” to the label and be able to have the net content declared in volume (instead of weight) for some BOV products that met a certain criteria. Several people in the room, including members of the National Aerosol Association (NAA) opposed this proposal. The L&R committee is reviewing comments. Its next meeting is in January 2014, where hopefully a plan to proceed will occur. SPRAY
