You can order the specification directly from ANSI.  The price is $50 plus
$6 shipping and handling.  The address is:

    American National Standards Institute
    Sales Office
    1430 Broadway
    New York, NY  10018
    1-212-642-4900

Ask for document number X3.159

Also, you can order it from Global Engineering Documents (1-800-854-7179).
I don't have their address handy, but they're on McGaw Avenue in Irvine, CA.
Also, last time I talked to them, they didn't have the ANSI spec yet.  But,
give 'em a shout.
