Unassigned ACS Local Section Territory
As reported in a May 23, 2023 , there are approximately one thousand members residing within the United States that do not belong to an ACS local section. These members reside in US counties that fall outside existing local section territories. An LSAC Working Group on Unassigned Territory (Working Group) was formed to review existing and unassigned territory and to make recommendations on assigning the currently unassigned territory to local sections.
The Working Group identified over 900 counties within the United States that are currently unassigned to an ACS Local Section. Using a rubric that considered existing local section boundaries and the geographic proximity of their member populations, State & ACS District boundaries, section size (among other considerations), the working group has published its preliminary recommendations to assign all unassigned counties (and members) to individual local sections.
LSAC encourages all local sections to review the proposed assignments and invites local sections that wish to propose alternate assignments of territory to provide their feedback by April 30, 2025. A petition for the assignment of any uncontested (and resolved) assignments will be presented at the Fall 2025 ACS Council Meeting for ACTION.
Please听submit any comments or feedback by April 30, 2025.
