Written requests should clearly identify the issue(s) requested to be considered; any requested action(s) to be considered; and include documentation that substantiates the claims and recommendation included in the request. Individuals or groups making such requests will normally meet with the chair of the committee in advance of a presentation to ACURM.

The committee will consider accepted petitions in a timely fashion. If no resolution is achieved within one calendar year from the acceptance of a petition, the committee will make available an interim report on this committee website and will do so as needed on each such subsequent anniversary.
