SUBJECT:  X3T9.2 Letter Ballot Procedure

X3T9.2 intends to use the letter ballot process instead of roll 
call meeting votes to better utilize meeting time.  This 
document outlines the procedure that will be used to conduct the
letter ballot.  This procedure is in compliance with the 
requirements of X3 as stated in the SD-2.

A letter ballot will be sent to each principal member of record
in X3T9.2 along with the document being voted on.  The letter 
will also inform the member of the voting requirements and 
consequences of not voting.

A letter will be sent to each alternate member informing them 
that the letter ballot is being conducted, the subject of the 
letter ballot, and the closing date of the letter ballot.  The
letter will also inform the alternate member on how to obtain 
a ballot if they determine one is needed.  

The observers will be notified via the committee mailing of 
the letter ballot.

Note:      X3T9.2 currently has 61 principal members, 79 
alternate members, and 220 observers in the committee attendance
database.
