TREC IAC SOP Subcommittee Meeting - Cancelled

By
Home Inspector with Capital City Inspections TREC #7290

The TREC Inspector's Advisory Committee SOP Subcommittee meeting scheduled for this morning at 11:00 am was canceled due to lack of a quorum of the subcommittee members. Members of the full IAC met privately with TREC staff to discuss the logistics of the proposed Commentary and how it might be implemented. The decision has not been reached (at least publicly) as to whether the Commentary will be enforceable or not nor whether it will become part of the existing SOP or if it will be a new Rule or if it will be a stand-alone, non-enforceable, non-rule document for clarification purposes only. The IAC chairman said no decision has been reached on that as yet but work will continue on the proposed Commentary in the meantime. Separately, I discussed this with a TAREI representative and we agreed that all of the trade associations should develop a position statement regarding the Commentary and present that to the IAC as soon as possible. I will draft one for NACHI and post it here for comment in a few days.

I know I don't really have a say in this, but I do feel the Commentary should be a stand-alone for clarification purposes only. I'll be looken forward to readen your draft for NACHI.

Would it be okay with you , that I re-blog your post to post it in some of the other Inspector groups?

Hope ypu'er stayen warm.

I'm sure our friend Carl, will be by as soon as he can. He's been busy the last few days.

Yep, that will be fine if you want to re-post or forward that post to other inspectors, especially Texas inspectors.

I found your post via my friend Dale and am very surprised that a quorum could not be convened so I am glad you are making your voice known!
