August 2, 2008 - NEW Subcommittee F on Field Testing and Diagnostics
One of the major decisions by the Adcom at the Spring 2008 meeting was the creation of a NEW Subcommittee F on "Field Testing and Diagnostics."  Several existing working and discussion groups have been moved to this new subcommittee, to provide more focus on one of the most exciting areas in ICC.  Thanks are due to John Densley and Nigel Hampton who have agreed to be chair and vice chair respectively.  We look forward to their leadership in creating this new committee.  Follow the links to find out more about this new committee and it's mission.

May 16, 2008 - ICC Administrative Update
The Officers and Administrative Committee at ICC, along with everyone who knew him, are incredibly saddened by the sudden passing of our Chair, Shan Nandi. He had natural leadership ability, and he had great plans for our Committee.
As unexpected as this was, the ICC Operations Manual takes into account the inability of a Chair to perform his or her duties for any reason. Therefore, per the ICC Ops Manual and the IEEE Technical Council, Rachel Mosier will assume Shan Nandi’s responsibilities of ICC Chair for the remainder of his term, i.e., through December 31, 2009. Her role will then change from Acting Chair to Chair for the duration of her term (2010-2011). John Smith will assume Rachel’s duties as the ICC Vice-Chair for the remainder of Rachel’s vice-chair term. John’s role will then change from Acting Vice Chair to Vice Chair for the duration of his vice-chair term (2010-2011), at which time he will become the Chair (2012-2013).
There may be some challenges as we work through this transition. However, we can overcome any challenge by working together and supporting each other as we always have. That’s one of the ICC’s greatest strengths and what makes ours such a successful committee.”

Special Announcement May 5, 2008 - Passing of Chairman Shan Nandi
It is with great sadness that we must announce that ICC Chairman Shan Nandi passed away Sunday May 4th.  This comes as an enormous shock.  He was such an active person, and so healthy and young, it’s hard to comprehend. In addition to his family and to ComEd, this is also a huge loss for ICC. He had so much energy and so many great ideas.
