ACT verifications are based on an evaluation of technology performance under specific, agreed-

upon protocols, criteria, and quality assurance procedures. ACT and its Partner Institutions do not certify

that a technology will always operate as verified and make no expressed or implied guarantee as to the

performance of the technology or that a technology will always, or under circumstances other than those

used in testing, operate at the levels verified. ACT does not seek to determine regulatory compliance; does

not rank technologies nor compare their performance; does not label or list technologies as acceptable or

unacceptable; and does not seek to determine “best available technology” in any form. The end user is

solely responsible for complying with any and all applicable federal, state, and local requirements.

This document has been peer reviewed by ACT Partner Institutions and a technology-specific

advisory committee and was recommended for public release. Mention of trade names or commercial

products does not constitute endorsement or recommendation by ACT for use.
