Selecting Practices for State Use

State Data Stewards are responsible for choosing the practices from the National practice table that will be used in their state. They also have the option to add practices used only in their state. State Data Stewards may add practice narratives and may also grant or deny permission to add narratives to the Local Data Stewards.
