Abstract
The Council for Optical Radiation Measurements (CORM) issues periodic reports which, in part, bear upon the mission and responsibility of the Optical Technology Division, Physics Laboratory. This report summarizes NIST's responses to the CORM Sixth Report issued in 1995 and is timed to be contemporary with the CORM Seventh Report to be issued in 2001.
