Recent Changes “FAQ’s” added to WMTC webpage Nuclear testing eliminated from asphalt class Correlation/comparison test results required to accompany qualified tester application Certified tester that qualifies a tester will be held accountable if qualified tester doesn’t know the test procedures Mid-point recertification not required. Certification valid for 5 years instead of 6 years. The word “knowingly” removed from decertification section of WMTC policy. WMTC committee can take action even if tester unknowingly performs test(s) incorrectly. 1
