	NIST: Time and Frequency Division - Division 847
		NIST researchers are also demonstrating the potential to fabricate and assemble the physics package using the low-cost, mass-production techniques used to make semiconductor devices, which should eventually lead to a complete atomic clock about 1 cubic centimeter in size (about the size of a pencil eraser) powered by a battery.
		NIST researchers have demonstrated a minuscule atomic clock with inner workings about the size of a grain of rice and potential applications in atomically precise timekeeping in portable, battery-powered devices for secure wireless communications, more precise navigation, and other applications.
		The Time and Frequency Division, part of NIST's Physics Laboratory, maintains the standard for frequency and time interval for the United States, provides official time to the United States, and carries out a broad program of research and service activities in time and frequency metrology.

	National Institute of Standards and Technology
		NIST was a natural part of NEHRP because of its long-time role in providing measurements, standards, and technology to help federal, state, and local government agencies and the private sector protect the nation and its citizens from natural as well as manmade threats.
		This federal mandate was welcomed by the national standards and model building code organizations since it provided incentive for state and local governments to adopt and enforce up-to-date standards and codes to be eligible for federally-assisted construction.
		Also, in 1972, the Applied Technology Council, an organization created by the Structural Engineers Association of California, called for a cooperative effort of practice, research, and government to produce up-to-date seismic design and construction provisions.

		While the Commerce Department's National Institute of Standards and Technology, which runs ATP, is supposed to avoid funding research that would be undertaken anyway by the private sector, the reality is something else, concludes a recent report from Congress' Government Accountability Office.
		WASHINGTON, D.C. - The U.S. Commerce Department's Advanced Technology Program started doling out millions of dollars to big corporations like General Electric and Xerox a decade and a half ago, during the heyday of enthusiasm for industrial policy.
		Charles Wessner of the National Research Council told a Senate subcommittee recently that the U.S. needs ATP because while "innovative technologies have the potential to bring enormous benefits to society as a whole, private investors often cannot adequately support their development because profits are often too uncertain or too distant."
