The ANS Standards Committee is headed up by the Standards Board (SB). The SB consists of a Chair, Vice-Chair, at least 6 but no more than 12 Members-at-Large, and each Consensus Committee Chair as an ex-officio member (with voting privileges).
The scope of the ANS Standards Committee and the SB is as follows:

The ANS Standards Committee is responsible for determining the need for new and revised standards and for the development and maintenance of standards that address the design, analysis, and operation of components, systems and facilities involved in or utilizing nuclear technology. The scope of the Standards Committee includes, but is not limited to, the following specific subjects:
- Nuclear criticality safety
- Definitions of technical terminology used in the nuclear field
- Facilities for using radioactive isotopes and remote handling of radioactive materials
- Research reactors and critical facilities
- Reactor physics and radiation shielding
- Utilization of computer programs in the nuclear field
- Siting requirements for nuclear facilities
- Nuclear power plant design, including safety requirements and plant system criteria
- Reactor operation and operator training and selection
- Fuel design, handling and storage
- Radioactive waste management
- Fission product behavior
The Standard Committee does not address standards for the application of radiation for medical purposes.
The Standards Committee coordinates all aspects of standards activities and interest within ANS and makes recommendations to the Society on matters concerning standards. It reviews standards being developed by other organizations to ensure consistency between these and ANS standards and selects individuals who are willing to join other related standards-developing committees as liaison personnel to assist in this coordination process.

The standards developed by the Standards Committee are intended to be American National Standards and to meet the acceptance requirements of ANSI. The use of any standard developed by the Standards Committee is intended to be voluntary and no individual or organization is obligated to observe any requirements contained in such a standard even though the individual or organization may have participated in the balloting or development process.
