The FCC has proposed changing Part 2.948 concerning lab accreditation. The current rules do not require accreditation for labs testing products under the certification route, but the new rules add the accrediation requirements for the certification route and change them for the DoC route.
The proposed rules can be found at http://www.fcc.gov/oet/ I think the FCC really screwed this one up since they provided no justification whatsoever for requiring accreditation for the certification route. If your lab, like ours, is affected, you have 30 days from publication to respond to the proposal.
