[OJP (NIJ) Docket No. 1621]


Walk-Through Metal Detectors and Hand-Held Metal Detectors Test 
Method Validation

AGENCY: National Institute of Justice, DOJ.

ACTION: Notice.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY: National Institute of Justice has recently developed updated 
versions of its minimum performance standards for walk-through metal 
detectors and hand-held metal detectors. In order to ensure that the 
test methods in the standards are properly documented, NIJ is 
requesting proposals (including price quotes) for test method 
validation efforts from testing laboratories. NIJ is also seeking the 
participation of metal detector manufacturers in this effort to ensure 
that the test methods are valid and reasonable for metal detectors in 
the market today. Additional information for these efforts may be found 
through the National Law Enforcement and Corrections Technology 
Center's Web site by following the link below: https://www.justnet.org/standards/Metal_Detectors.html.

DATES: Please submit quotes or expressions of interest in participation 
by 5 p.m. Eastern Time on May 20, 2013.
