This paper will discuss the preparation of LES Recommended Practices and
Standards for contamination control and cleanroom applications. It will describe

documents.

designated by the GSA to review FED-STD-209.
IES Standards and Practices Program
The IES has designated twenty-eight Working Groups for producing

published documents, two groups are*1
