Note to the Docket – 25 October 2006

Two phone conversations on SNAP MVAC proposal

1.  Dave Cappert, National Institute for Automotive Service Excellence
(ASE); 13 October 2006

	Dave reviewed the proposal and didn’t see any servicing issues that
would impact ASE certified technicians.  SAE awaits the follow-up rule
that will cover 609 issues.

ASE's mission is to improve the quality of vehicle repair and service
through the testing and certification of repair and service
professionals.  Their certified technicians represent independent,
dealership and chain store A/C service technicians.

2.  Doug Greenhouse, National Automobile Dealers Association (NADA); 23
October 2006

	Doug indicated there should be more language on why retrofits are not
allowed.  He also said additional training on flammability or high
pressure should not be required since service technicians already deal
with those issues.  

NADA represents new car and truck dealers, both domestic and
international.
