Dear
Ms. Brown:
On
behalf of the citizens of Nebraska, please accept my hearty congratulations
on the celebration of the National Institute of Standards and
Technology's 100th anniversary. Throughout the century, NIST has
established exemplary national standards for industry, science
and government that not only uphold the highest degree of quality
and safety, but preserve and protect our most precious national
resource - our people.
The
State of Nebraska is proud to continue our strong cooperation
with NIST through the Manufacturing Extension Partnership. We
look forward to working with NIST in developing standards of excellence
for innovative products, services and technologies yet to be explored,
discovered and invented during the next 100 years and beyond.
Sincerely,
Mike Johanns
Governor
