Local Districts of the ISRT
| There are 13 district
societies that are affiliates of the ISRT. Each of them
are dedicated to the same standards as their parent
national and state organizations. They provide an
opportunity to meet with other technologists, share
ideas, and continue their education. For more information click on the district of interest. |
Last year there was some discussion amongst the ISRT Board
members to look into the possibility of redistricting the ISRT. At the present
time there are 13 districts of which 6 have shown little if any activity. An ad
hoc committee was formed to look into this. The committee members are Tracy
Kimler, Nancy Harney, and acting chairperson Dan Wolf.
The purpose of the redistricting would be:
1. To combine inactive districts with active districts to improve communication
and education.
2. Meet ASRT requirements (elimination of inactive districts so that ISRT
remains in compliance with the ASRT)
3. Insure that if a formerly inactive district wishes to reactivate, the ISRT
would assist those districts in meeting the requirements of both the ISRT and
the ASRT.
The new zones (or areas) would be numbered as such and be composed of the former
districts:
1. Dubuque District
2. Mississippi District
3. East Central District-combined with the Southeast and the Southern Valley
Districts
4.Northeast District-combined with the North Central and the Mason City
Districts
5. South Central District
6. Southwest District
7. West Central District-combined with the Northwest and Iowa Lakes Districts
The expectation is that the active districts would include the facilities within
their new boundaries on any mailings or other communications regarding meetings
or activities within the district.
After much discussion at the April ISRT Board meeting, it was proposed that
these changes go into effect on October 1, 2010 if approved by the board.
If anyone has any questions or comments concerning this change, feel free to
contact Daniel P. Wolf, RT(R)
