Slight modification.  The text defining the modifiers will be removed from the 
body.  Although it was stated it would return to the annex, that is not 
necessarily true.   WE still have one more step and that is the TC being 
balloted.  IF they accept the floor action, I believe the current annex 
material will also be deleted (still need to do some studying on the entire 
picture).  If the TC disagrees, THEN we revert to prior text (aka 2016 text).  
There is also the aspect of the assured appeal to the Standards Council.  
Whether or not the statement during the debate assuring that the annex text 
would return if the CAM is accepted, could impact the Council’s decision to 
accept the outcome on the CAM.  I doubt it but then I didn’t think this one 
would be accepted by the floor.  Some much for my crystal ball.

The most important aspect (IMHO) was not included in this floor action 
(thankfully) and that is the requirement that the Owner’s Representative is to 
provide the water supply information.
