Response to Comment on 2010 SOC:
Docket Number 08-0341

Docket No. 08-0341 requested that the title for proposed SOC occupation 29-1141 Nurse Anesthetists be changed to "Certified Registered Nurse Anesthetists." The SOCPC did not accept this recommendation, based on Classification Principle 2 which states that occupations are classified based on work performed. It is not a convention of the SOC to use the term "registered" unless it is necessary to distinguish the occupation from another.
