This Standard specifies permissible/allowable noise levels for commercial, industrial, residential, institutional, educational, construction, transportation and recreational receptors in Guyana. This Standard will operate under the Environmental Protection (Noise Management) Regulations 2000.

This British Standard specifies requirements for the construction dimensions and mechanical and electrical properties of non- armoured polyvinyl chloride (PVC) insulated cables for operation at voltages up to and including 450 V a.c. to earth and 750 V a.c between conductors, intended for electric power lighting and internal wiring.

This Technical Report provides examples of EPE that represent a range of applications from simple to elaborate.  They also represent a range of organizations (e.g., manufacturing and service companies; non-governmental organizations; government agencies; small medium and range enterprises; organizations with and without certified environmental management systems) and geographic locations.

These requirements cover products which are molded of insulating material and are intended to cover the outlet slots of receptacles having 1-15R and 5-15R configurations in accordance with Wiring Devices-Dimensional Specifications, ANSI/NEMA WD6.1.2 These requirements do not cover insulating devices provided to cover the unused outlets of a multi-outlet cord connector employed on a general-use cord set. The requirements for these devices are contained in the Standard for Cord Sets and Power-Supply Cords, UL 817. 1.3 These requirements do not cover receptacle closures provided as part of a flush device cover plate. These devices are covered by the requirements in the Standard for Metallic Outlet Boxes, UL 514A, or in the Standard for Nonmetallic Outlet Boxes, Flush-Mounted Boxes, and Covers, UL 514C.

This International Standard provides guidance on the establishment, implementation, maintenance and improvement of an environmental management system and its coordination with other management systems. The guidelines in ISO 14004:2004 are applicable to any organization, regardless of its size, type, location or level of maturity. While the guidelines in ISO 14004:2004 are consistent with the ISO 14001:2004 environmental management system model, they are not intended to provide interpretations of the requirements of ISO 14001:2004.

This International Standard provides guidance on how to conduct an EASO through a systematic process of identifying environmental aspects and environmental issues and determining, if appropriate, their business consequences. It covers the roles and responsibilities of the parties to the assessment (the client, the assessor and the representative of the assess), and the stages of the assessment process (planning, information gathering and validation, evaluation and

reporting). 

This part of ISO 14064 specifies principles and requirements at the organization level for quantification and reporting of greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions and removals. It includes requirements for the design, development, management, reporting and verification of an organization’s GHG inventory. ISO 14064 is GHG programme neutral. If a GHG programme is applicable, requirements of that GHG programme are additional to the requirements of ISO 14064.
