Hi, Brad,

Fastest and simpliest way to obtain an official CIS or Russian standard in English is to order an official copy and translation at:
	mailto:[email-masked] (IMHO, a better source)
	http://www.vniiki.ru/intermag.asp

	mailto:[email-masked]
	http://www.interstandart.ru/

	http://www.gost.ru/ (official site with references to official dealers)
	http://www.easc.org.by/ (official site with references to official dealers)

Price near ISO/IEC. 
For example, official copy of GOST 28147-89 in English costs near 20000 rubles (~600 euro), which is similar to ISO/IEC prices for standards, but includes translation.

Sorry for my bests English.
