The Inservice Testing Owners’ Group (ISTOG) needs your expertise and experience. By collaborating our collective knowledge and resources, we are improving the capabilities of all of our members to address component problems and regulatory issues. Being a member of ISTOG provides a support network for rapid responses to confusing or difficult IST situations.

Your membership enables us to speak with one voice as an industry to the regulatory authorities for issues that affect everyone. ISTOG is capturing IST program related knowledge and experience in a web-based forum, which includes technical positions, guidelines and analyses that you can directly apply to your IST Program today! This information is available exclusively to our members who are actively involved in IST program implementation and management.

ISTOG has also taken on active roles in working with other organizations such as the American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME) Operation and Maintenance of Nuclear Power Plants Code Committees, the Nuclear Industry Check Valve Group (NIC), the Appendix J Program Owners Group (APOG), the Nuclear Energy Institute (NEI), and is exploring other avenues and means to improve our capabilities. In short, ISTOG is a dynamic group seeking to make productive and positive changes in the conduct, administration and implementation of IST.

Please join ISTOG today! Program technical advancements realized by the groups’ efforts are just one benefit of membership.
