(a) Metrology Services and Laboratory Traceability.
The department's metrology laboratory shall maintain NIST recognition
and certification of international metrological traceability to the
International System of Units (SI), as necessary to provide a service
to calibrate standards needing the same international metrological
traceability.
(b) The department adopts by reference NIST Handbook
143-State Weights and Measures Laboratories Program Handbook.
