The U.S. General Services Administration (GSA) released a Notice of Cancellation for FED-STD-209E, Airborne Particulate Cleanliness Classes in Cleanrooms and Clean Zones, on November 29, 2001. 

The Federal Standard 209E cancellation is based on the recommendation by IEST Working Group CC100 that FED-STD-209E no longer be maintained. The IEST, assigned by the GSA as the Preparing Activity organization for FED-STD-209E, has recommended that International Standard ISO 14644, Cleanrooms and controlled environments-Part 1: Classification of air cleanliness, and Part 2: Specifications for testing and monitoring to prove continued compliance with ISO 14644-1, supersede FED-STD-209E. ISO 14644-1 and 14644-2 are two parts of a multi-part group of ISO Standards developed by ISO Technical Committee 209 (ISO/TC 209). All ISO/TC 209 Standards may be ordered online through IEST.
