** SUBMITTED FOR REAFFIRMATION **

Washington D.C., November 1995 -- Accredited Standards Committee 
X3, Information Technology is announcing the public review of 
ANSI/IEEE 770/X3.160:1989.  The comment period extends from 
November 24, 1995 to January 26, 1996.

This standard specifies the semantics and syntax of the computer 
programming language Extended Pascal by specifying requirements for a 
processor and for a conforming program.  Two levels of compliance are 
defined for both processors and programs.

In accordance with ANSI procedures, which require a five-year 
review of its approved standards, the development committee X3B5 
recommends this standard be reissued without change.
